Systematic profiling of cancer‐fibroblast interactions reveals drug combinations in ovarian cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Fibroblasts, cells in the tumor environment, support ovarian cancer cell growth and alter morphology and drug response. We used fibroblast and cancer cell co‐culture models to test 528 drugs and discovered new drugs for combination treatment. We showed that adding Vorinostat or Birinapant to standard chemotherapy may improve drug response, suggesting ...

Oligodendrocytes in a nutshell
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015 Oligodendrocytes are the myelinating cells of the central nervous system (CNS). While the phrase is oft repeated and holds true, the last few years have borne witness to radical change in our understanding of this unique cell type.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Loss of primary cilia in endothelial cells promotes EndMT and vascular abnormalities in the ovarian tumor microenvironment through EphA2 activation. Using human samples, in vitro models, and endothelial‐specific Kif3a‐knockout mice, we show that primary cilia loss drives the acquisition of cancer‐associated fibroblast‐like phenotypes, thereby ...

Genomics‐led approach to drug testing in models of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.GA text Genomic data from undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma patients and preclinical models were used to inform a targeted drug screen. Selected compounds were tested in 2D and 3D cultures of UPS cell lines. A combination of trametinib and infigratinib was synergistic in the majority of UPS cell lines tested, which was further confirmed in an ex ...

A novel microfluidic flow-cytometry for counting numbers of single-cell β-actins
Nanotechnology and Precision Engineering, 2020 As a house keeping protein with stable expressions, β-actin is used as a loading control in normalization of western blotting. However, the actual numbers of β-actins at the single-cell level remain elusive.

Atomic view into Plasmodium actin polymerization, ATP hydrolysis, and fragmentation.
PLoS Biology, 2019 Plasmodium actins form very short filaments and have a noncanonical link between ATP hydrolysis and polymerization. Long filaments are detrimental to the parasites, but the structural factors constraining Plasmodium microfilament lengths have remained ...
