Hydrogel‐Mediated Preservation of Live Tumor Explants for Drug Development in Peritoneal Metastases

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a hyaluronan‐based hydrogel platform preserving the native tumor microenvironment (morphology, tissue composition, histology) of patient‐derived explants from peritoneal metastases, enabling clinically relevant drug screening. Hydrogel properties such as stiffness and degradation are crucial for longer‐term histoculture.

Engineering Cellular Self‐Adhesions Inside 3D Printed Micro‐Arches to Enhance Cell:Biomaterial Attachment

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Surprisingly, a cell can bind to itself to make a self‐adhesion, which engineered here to improve how cells attach to biomaterials. Nanoprinting are used to make 3D structures smaller than cells–called Self‐Adhesion‐Tunnels (SATs)–around which cells can wrap and bind to themselves.

Molecular Pathogenesis of Desmoid Tumors [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Public Health, 2005
Desmoid tumors (aggressive fibromatosis) are locally invasive soft tissue tumors in which beta-catenin/TCF3 mediated Wnt signaling is activated. More than 80% of desmoid tumors contain activating mutations in ß-Catenin which leads to up ...

Disintegration of the KITENIN/ErbB4 Functional Complex by the Flavonoid Hispidulin Suppresses Colorectal Cancer Progression

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Hispidulin disrupts the KITENIN/ErbB4 oncogenic complex and inhibits KITENIN‐mediated AP‐1 activity, cell invasion, and aerobic glycolysis. It also suppresses the production of cancer‐associated metabolites and downregulates transcriptional regulators downstream of the KITENIN complex.
