In Vivo CRISPR Screening Identifies the Glutamate Receptor GRIA2 as Promoting Peritoneal Metastasis of Gastric Cancer via Calcium‐Dependent β‐Catenin Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We identified GRIA2 as a critical driver of gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis through in vivo CRISPR screening. Mechanistically, GRIA2‐mediated calcium influx inhibits GSK3β and activates Wnt/β‐catenin signaling, driven by glutamate from cancer‐associated fibroblasts.

Cockroach‐Derived Leucokinin VIII Peptide Accelerates Diabetic Skin Wound Healing by Enhancing Keratinocyte Filopodia Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the cockroach‐derived peptide leucokinin VIII as a potent accelerator of diabetic wound healing. By activating the FAK‐ACTG1 axis, the peptide drives keratinocyte migration and filopodia formation. Delivered via a developed PLGA‐PEG‐PLGA thermosensitive hydrogel for sustained release, this approach significantly hastens wound ...

Simultaneous binding of bFGF to both FGFR and integrin maintains properties of primed human induced pluripotent stem cells

Regenerative Therapy
Introduction: Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF, FGF2) and integrin α6β1 are important for maintaining the pluripotency of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs).

GHRHR Deficiency Enhances Retinal Ganglion Cell Survival and Visual Functions in Experimental Glaucoma by Inhibiting Ferroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glaucoma, a major cause of blindness, involves retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration. This study shows growth hormone‐releasing hormone receptor (GHRHR) deficiency preserves RGC survival and restores vision, unlike activation which only aids survival.
