Mitochondria is the hub of apoptosis in various diseases. The disruption of mitochondrial structure (including membrane rupture, cristae remodeling, and mitochondrial membrane lipid redistribution), the imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics (including fusion and fission, autophagy), the release, disruption, and mutation of mitochondria DNA, as well as ...

Endostatin and anastellin inhibit distinct aspects of the angiogenic process
Background Endostatin and anastellin, fragments of collagen type XVIII and fibronectin, respectively, belong to a family of endogenous inhibitors of angiogenesis which inhibit tumor growth and metastasis in a number of mouse models of human cancer.

Can endocan serve as a molecular “hepatostat” in liver regeneration?
Background Intriguingly, liver regeneration after injury does not induce uncontrolled growth and the underlying mechanisms of such a “hepatostat” are still not clear. Endocan, a proteoglycan, was implicated in liver regeneration.

Behind the scenes: how the EMILIN/Multimerin family shapes the cancer landscape
The EMILIN/Multimerin family members regulate key hallmarks of cancer—including apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. As indicated, their function in immune evasion, drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming remains largely unexplored.

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.
