Generation of therapeutic T cells from human induced pluripotent stem cells
Inflammation and RegenerationT cell exhaustion remains a critical barrier in treating chronic infections and cancer. To overcome this, our laboratory has established a platform for generating “rejuvenated” T cells from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). This review outlines our

The cell-cell channel in the control of growth
Seminars in Cell Biology, 1992 Several lines of evidence indicate that the cell-cell channels in gap junction are conduits for growth-regulating signals. Experimental upregulation of the channels by retinoids causes inhibition of cellular growth and, conversely, their downregulation by oncogenes, e.g. activated src, stimulates growth.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

An In Vitro Human Liver Model by iPSC-Derived Parenchymal and Non-parenchymal Cells
Stem Cell Reports, 2017 Summary: During liver development, hepatoblasts and liver non-parenchymal cells (NPCs) such as liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) constitute the liver bud where they proliferate and differentiate. Accordingly, we

The Living Fossil Psilotum nudum Has Cortical Fibers With Mannan-Based Cell Wall Matrix
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Cell wall thickening and development of secondary cell walls was a major step in plant terrestrialization that provided the mechanical support, effective functioning of water-conducting elements and fortification of the surface tissues.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Aspects of cell growth control illustrated by the Schwann cell
, 2012 The control of cell biogenesis remains poorly understood, despite being critical for the development and maintenance of all organisms. Studies in vitro and in vivo using the Schwann cell, the glial cell of the peripheral nervous system, have provided ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
