ABSTRACT Objective Laryngeal dysplasia and Reinke's edema (RE) are common vocal fold lesions associated with smoking. While the former is cancer prone, most cases of the latter do not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, we proposed identifying biomarkers of smoking‐induced benign‐malignant transformation of vocal fold lesions.

An atypical addition to the chemokine receptor nomenclature:
Chemokines and their receptors are essential regulators of in vivo leukocyte migration and, some years ago, a systematic nomenclature system was developed for the chemokine receptor family. Chemokine receptor biology and biochemistry was recently extensively reviewed.

Signal Transduction and Pathogenic Modifications at the Melanocortin-4 Receptor: A Structural Perspective [PDF]
The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) can be endogenously activated by binding of melanocyte-stimulating hormones (MSH), which mediates anorexigenic effects. In contrast, the agouti-related peptide (AgRP) acts as an endogenous inverse agonist and suppresses

Mycosis Fungoides Is a Proliferation of Multiple Mutational Subclones
ABSTRACT Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a unique type of lymphoma with an excellent prognosis presenting with a wide variety of clinical and histological findings. Recent sophisticated research techniques have revealed that very slow changes in the clinical and histological pictures of one patient over time are due to intratumoral heterogeneity.

Psychedelics, entactogens and psychoplastogens for depression and related disorders
Currently, the most actively investigated rapidly acting antidepressants, anxiolytics and/or anti PTSD agents, include psychedelics e.g. psilocybin, LSD, N,N‐dimethyltryptamine, ayahuasca; non‐hallucinogenic entactogens, e.g. MDMA; psychoplastogens which rapidly promote neuroplasticity, e.g.

Interleukin-33 contributes to both M1 and M2 chemokine marker expression in human macrophages [PDF]
Background Interleukin-33 is a member of the IL-1 cytokine family whose functions are mediated and modulated by the ST2 receptor. IL-33-ST2 expression and interactions have been explored in mouse macrophages but little is known about the effect of IL-33 ...

Opioids in breast cancer: Between analgesia and modulation of tumour progression
Preclinical investigations consistently demonstrate that activation of μ‐opioid receptors and δ‐opioid receptors promote proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition, acquisition of cancer stem cell phenotypes, and chemoresistance.

Elevated fetal steroidogenic activity in autism [PDF]
Autism affects males more than females, giving rise to the idea that the influence of steroid hormones on early fetal brain development may be one important early biological risk factor.

CXCL1 secreted by M2 macrophages induced EMT of EC cells through the CXCR2/NF‐κB pathway; CXCR2 expression was predominantly observed in the epithelial compartment, whereas CXCL1 expression was primarily localized in the stromal region; Neutralization of M2 macrophage‐secreted CXCL1 and inhibiting the NF‐κB pathway can inhibit EC progression in vivo ...
