Inorganic Nanomaterials can Promote or Inhibit Tumor Metastasis Depending on Tumor Microenvironment Composition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As engineered nanomaterials gain prominence in cancer imaging and therapy, understanding their impact on tumor progression becomes increasingly critical. We demonstrate that gold and silica‐coated gold nanomaterials can either suppress or enhance breast cancer metastasis through distinct tumor microenvironment interactions, while identifying ...

Matrix Stiffness Orchestrates Mesenchymal Stem Cell Lineage Commitment Toward Osteogenesis and Adipogenesis Through the PIEZO1/SP1/STC2 Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Matrix stiffness directs mesenchymal stem cell lineage commitment through PIEZO1‐dependent activation of the SP1/STC2 pathway. Stiff matrices favor osteogenesis and suppress adipogenesis, whereas the loss of PIEZO1 function impairs early bone formation. STC2 retains lineage‐regulatory activity even when PIEZO1 is inactive.

The Legitimacy of Prohibiting Euthanasia

open access: yesBioéthiqueOnline, 2015
ohn Arras argues against the legalization of physician- assisted suicide and active euthanasia on the basis of social costs that he anticipates will result from legalization.

Killing and Caring: Is Euthanasia Incompatible With Care?

open access: yes, 1997
The issue of euthanasia continues to be surrounded by controversy, particularly in relation to its moral status and more recently, the significance that health professionals should attach to the principle of respect for patient autonomy.

Structural Basis of Shiga Toxin Neutralization by Human Antibodies Targeting Canonical Receptor‐Binding and Non‐Canonical Assembly Sites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cryo‐electron microscopy structures reveal two distinct neutralization mechanisms of fully human monoclonal antibodies targeting the Shiga toxin 1a B subunit. RDS059 occludes the Gb3 receptor‐binding site, whereas RDS045 engages a lateral quaternary epitope to disrupt holotoxin assembly.

THSD7A Exacerbates Atherosclerosis via Activation of Signaling Axis αvβ3/CEBPD/IL1A

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
THSD7A exerts pro‐inflammatory effects and exacerbates atherosclerosis. Mechanistically, THSD7A regulates endothelial cell inflammation and atherosclerosis by activating the αvβ3/CEBPD/IL1A signaling axis. THSD7A is not only a genetic marker but also a potential therapeutic target for coronary artery disease (CAD).

Hyper‐Intense Tumor Peripheral Accumulation of Antibody‐Conjugated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles can Enable Breast Cancer Detection by Magnetic Particle Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor‐associated inflammation retains antibody‐targeted or non‐specific antibody conjugated nanoparticles within the tumor microenvironment. Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) enables non‐invasive detection and differentiation of tumors from other organs, owing to higher nanoparticle retention by inflammatory cells in the tumor periphery.

Discovery and Optimization of AMT‐676, a CDH17‐Targeting ADC for the Treatment of Advanced Gastrointestinal Cancers

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AMT‐676 is a novel antibody‐drug conjugate targeting CDH17, an adhesion molecule uniquely exposed on gastrointestinal tumor surfaces. Engineered with an optimized exatecan payload, it demonstrates profound tumor regression and a robust bystander effect across diverse preclinical models.

An Ethical Review of Euthanasia and Physician-assisted Suicide

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2017
Background: In the majority of countries, active direct euthanasia is a forbidden way of the deprivation of the patients’ life, while its passive form is commonly accepted.
