Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

Rubella seroprevalence using residual samples from the South African measles surveillance program: a cross-sectional analytic study

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2020
Introduction: South Africa is yet to introduce rubella-containing vaccines (RCV) into its routine immunization schedule. Selecting the target population when introducing RCV should take into account the ages of susceptible individuals in the population ...

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Are Communicable Diseases Only Communicable?

, 2021
For half a century, the so-called epidemiological transition model has guided the interpretation of mortality data. Based on long-term trends in morbidity, it focuses on declining mortality from communicable diseases and the rise of non-communicable chronic diseases (primarily cancer and cardiovascular diseases).
