Adenosine‐to‐inosine editing of miR‐200b‐3p is associated with the progression of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A‐to‐I editing of miRNAs, particularly miR‐200b‐3p, contributes to HGSOC progression by enhancing cancer cell proliferation, migration and 3D growth. The edited form is linked to poorer patient survival and the identification of novel molecular targets.

Serum YKL-40 levels and disease characteristics in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Caspian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Background: The present study aimed to evaluate serum YKL-40 levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared to healthy subjects and to search whether there is an association between YKL-40 levels and disease characteristics in RA. Methods: In

Investigating the cell of origin and novel molecular targets in Merkel cell carcinoma: a historic misnomer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study indicates that Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) does not originate from Merkel cells, and identifies gene, protein & cellular expression of immune‐linked and neuroendocrine markers in primary and metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) tumor samples, linked to Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) status, with enrichment of B‐cell and other immune cell

Distribution of HLA-DRB1 Alleles in Patients With Antiphospholipid Syndrome and Their Association With Antiphospholipid Antibodies Presence and Damage Indexes

Journal of Immunology Research
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is frequently coexisting with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the knowledge on its genetic background is essential. The objective of this work was to assess distribution of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1 alleles

YAP1::TFE3 mediates endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal plasticity in epithelioid hemangioendothelioma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The YAP1::TFE3 fusion protein drives endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plasticity, resulting in the loss of endothelial characteristics and gain of mesenchymal‐like properties, including resistance to anoikis, increased migratory capacity, and loss of contact growth inhibition in endothelial cells.

High Prevalence of Cold Intolerance in Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Case–Control Study

Clinical Case Reports
Cold intolerance is more common in rheumatoid arthritis patients than control. Cold intolerance tends to develop after rheumatoid arthritis onset and is associated with longer disease duration, with pain and swelling being dominant features.

Limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis skin demonstrates distinct molecular subsets separated by a cardiovascular development gene expression signature

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Systemic sclerosis (SSc; scleroderma) is an uncommon autoimmune rheumatic disease characterised by autoimmunity, vasculopathy and fibrosis. Gene expression profiling distinguishes scleroderma from normal skin, and can detect different subsets ...

Emerging role of ARHGAP29 in melanoma cell phenotype switching

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study gives first insights into the role of ARHGAP29 in malignant melanoma. ARHGAP29 was revealed to be connected to tumor cell plasticity, promoting a mesenchymal‐like, invasive phenotype and driving tumor progression. Further, it modulates cell spreading by influencing RhoA/ROCK signaling and affects SMAD2 activity. Rho GTPase‐activating protein

Growth/Differentiation Factor 15 Promotes a Pro‐Regenerative Response in Chondrocytes Upon Cartilage Injury

MedComm
Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a special form of osteoarthritis (OA), developing after joint injuries. Except for some minor clinical differences, no biologic marker has yet been identified to distinguish idiopathic OA (IOA) from PTOA.
