Modelling cell movement and chemotaxis pseudopod based feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A computational framework is presented for the simulation of eukaryotic cell migration and chemotaxis. An empirical pattern formation model, based on a system of non-linear reaction-diffusion equations, is approximated on an evolving cell boundary using ...

The Contribution of Chemoattractant GPCRs, Formylpeptide Receptors, to Inflammation and Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
A hallmark of inflammatory responses is leukocyte mobilization, which is mediated by pathogen and host released chemotactic factors that activate Gi-protein-coupled seven-transmembrane receptors (GPCRs) on host cell surface. Formylpeptide receptors (FPRs,

Characterizing Stage‐Specific Cellular Dynamics and Microenvironmental Remodeling in Lung Adenocarcinoma by Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study integrated early‐stage patient specimens with publicly available datasets encompassing non‐malignant lung tissues and advanced‐stage LUAD through single‐cell sequencing, revealing a dynamically remodeled tumor microenvironment characterized by a hypoxia‐adapted malignant subset (C5), immunosuppressive LGMN+ macrophages, STAT1‐driven ...

Lipid‐Driven OLR1/FOXM1/FGF19 Axis Orchestrates Crosstalk in an Epithelial‐Fibroblast Positive Feedback Promoting Progesterone Resistance in Endometrial Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
It is revealed that a metabolic–stromal loop driven by oxLDL–OLR1–FOXM1–FGF19 signaling promotes progesterone resistance in endometrial cancer. OxLDL activates epithelial–fibroblast crosstalk, enhancing proliferation and hormonal insensitivity. Disruption of this circuit, especially with resveratrol, restores MPA sensitivity, highlighting a potential ...

Synergistic effect of phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor and serum on migration of endotoxin-stimulated macrophages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Macrophage migration is an essential step in host defense against infection and wound healing. Elevation of cAMP by inhibiting phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), enzymes that specifically degrade cAMP, is known to suppress various inflammatory responses in ...

A reaction-diffusion model for the growth of avascular tumor

open access: yes, 2001
A nutrient-limited model for avascular cancer growth including cell proliferation, motility and death is presented. The model qualitatively reproduces commonly observed morphologies for primary tumors, and the simulated patterns are characterized by its ...

A Lung‐Immune Dual‐Humanized Mouse Using Cryopreserved Tissue Enables Infection and Immune Profiling of Human Common Cold Coronaviruses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cryopreserved lung‐humanized mice overcome the dependency to fresh tissues and permit head‐to‐head profiling of all four human common cold coronaviruses versus SARS‐CoV‐2 infection; the model validates Paxlovid efficacy against HKU1 and, when coupled with human immune‐system engraftment, enables interrogation of lung‐resident human immunity and HKU1 ...

Tethering of Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser-Pro-Lys Peptides on Mg-Doped Hydroxyapatite

open access: yesEngineering, 2017
Stem cell homing, namely the recruitment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to injured tissues, is highly effective for bone regeneration in vivo. In order to explore whether the incorporation of mimetic peptide sequences on magnesium-doped (Mg-doped ...

Microglial HVCN1 Deficiency Improves Movement and Survival of SOD1G93A ALS Mice by Enhancing Microglial Migration and Neuroprotection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hydrogen voltage gated channel 1 (HVCN1) is upregulated in microglia of both ALS patients and its mouse model. HVCN1 deficiency enhances microglial migration via suppressing Akt signaling, promotes neurotrophic capacity and motor function, and prolongs survival of the SOD1G93A ALS mice. This study identifies HVCN1 as a novel, promising druggable target

The Mitochondrial Guardian α‐Amyrin Mitigates Alzheimer's Disease Pathology via Modulation of the DLK‐SARM1‐ULK1 Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dietary habits play a key role in chronic diseases, and higher annual consumption of fruit and vegetable may lower risk of dementia. Artificial intelligence predicts the lipid‐like compound α‐Amyrin (αA) from plants with edible peels as a drug candidate against Alzheimer's disease.
