Mathematical modelling of the loss of tissue compression responsiveness and its role in solid tumour development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper presents a mathematical model of normal and abnormal tissue growth. The modelling focuses on the potential role that stress responsiveness may play in causing proliferative disorders which are at the basis of the development of avascular ...

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

The influence of the extracellular matrix on cell behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Stem cell research has raised great interest in the scientific community as it has the potential to form multiple cell types and it is believed they hold the key to curing many diseases. However, there is a need for better understanding of how to control

Extracellular matrix and the neural stem cell niche

open access: yes, 2011
Basal lamina is present in many stem cell niches, but we still have a poor understanding of the role of this and other extracellular matrix (ECM) components.

STAT3 and SOCS3 expression patterns during murine placenta development

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2013
Signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (Stat3) has been identified as an important signal transducer in the invasive phenotype of the trophoblasts cells in in vitro studies.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Prognostic value of NT-proANP levels on major cardiovascular outcomes in a 31-year follow-up study depends on baseline morbidity

open access: yesScientific Reports
In subjects with cardiovascular disease (CVD), higher N-terminal proatrial natriuretic peptide (NT-proANP) are associated with major cardiovascular outcomes, while in subjects without CVDs longitudinal data is largely lacking. Our aim was to assess cross-

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Analysis of cancer cell line and tissue RNA sequencing data reveals an essential and dark matrisome

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus
Extracellular matrix remodeling is a hallmark of tissue development, homeostasis, and disease. The processes that mediate remodeling, and the consequences of such, are the topic of extensive focus in biomedical research.
