STK3 is a transcriptional target of YAP1 and a hub component in the crosstalk between Hippo and Wnt signaling pathways during gastric carcinogenesis [PDF]

Molecular Cancer
Background Serine/threonine kinase 3 (STK3) is recognized as a key regulator in Hippo pathway and a tumor-suppressing gene in various cancer types. However, its non-canonical role has been gradually revealed in cancer development.

Targeting folate receptor beta on monocytes/macrophages renders rapid inflammation resolution independent of root causes

Cell Reports Medicine, 2021
Summary: Provoked by sterile/nonsterile insults, prolonged monocyte mobilization and uncontrolled monocyte/macrophage activation can pose imminent or impending harm to the affected organs. Curiously, folate receptor beta (FRβ), with subnanomolar affinity
