Prx II-mediated stemness-associated properties in gastric cancers. (A) Transcriptionally silenced expression of Prx II in gastric cancer cells by hypermethylation of CPG islands in promoter regions of Prx II. (B) ROS level is increased by silenced Prx II and Increased ROS induces the hypermethylation of CPG islands. (C,D) Reduced cell autonomous apoptosis and apoptosis via inhibiting caspase activities by silenced Prx II. (E,F) Over activation of c-Src kinase and H2O2 level by silenced Prx II, which then promotes the stemness-associated properties.
