The CXCR4/CXCL12 axis has been extensively associated with different types of cancer correlating with higher aggressiveness and metastasis. In diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the expression of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 is involved in the ...

Genetic Engineering Methods in Primary T Cells
Primary T cells can be engineered to confer them with novel therapeutic functions, allowing them to treat a variety of conditions. Genetic engineering can be either stable or transient, aiming to either express or inhibit a target gene. This review discusses the various genetic engineering tools available as well as their characteristics and ...

Peripheral regulatory cells immunophenotyping in Primary Sjögren's Syndrome: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: IL-10--producing B cells, Foxp3-expressing T cells (Tregs) and the IDO-expressing dendritic cells (pDC) are able to modulate inflammatory processes, to induce immunological tolerance and, in turn, to inhibit the pathogenesis of autoimmune ...

In this study, we explore a novel and efficient preconditioning method that induced EPCs‐like cells from hUVECs. TGF‐β inhibitors–treated hUVECs demonstrated significantly enhanced cell activity and tube‐forming ability under nutrient‐deficient and high‐glucose‐containing diabetic wound simulation conditions.

Reaction–Diffusion Finite Element Model of Lateral Line Primordium Migration to Explore Cell Leadership [PDF]
Collective cell migration plays a fundamental role in many biological phenomena such as immune response, embryogenesis and tumorigenesis. In the present work, we propose a reaction–diffusion finite element model of the lateral line primordium migration ...

GPCR‐G protein signalling and its mutational landscape in cancer—Driver or passenger
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in cellular signalling, regulating various physiological processes. Abnormal expression and mutations of GPCRs have been implicated in several types of cancer, influencing tumour initiation, progression and immune response.

Impact of the Chemokine Receptors CXCR4 and CXCR7 on Clinical Outcome in Adrenocortical Carcinoma
Chemokine receptors have a negative impact on tumor progression in several human cancers and have therefore been of interest for molecular imaging and targeted therapy. However, their clinical and prognostic significance in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC)

Gene expression profiling of Ewing sarcoma tumours reveals the prognostic importance of tumour–stromal interactions: a report from the Children's Oncology Group [PDF]
Relapse of Ewing sarcoma (ES) can occur months or years after initial remission, and salvage therapy for relapsed disease is usually ineffective. Thus, there is great need to develop biomarkers that can predict which patients are at risk for relapse so ...

CXCR7 Transactives and Triggers Signaling through EGFR [PDF]
Over expression of chemokine receptors such as CXCR7 is a common hallmark of various cancers. Recent evidence suggests that CXCR7 interacts with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) to activate downstream mitogenic signaling and proliferation in tumour cells. Few current therapies directly target CXCR7; however, targeting the interaction between
