Heparanase 1 (HPSE1) and Heparanase 2 (HPSE2) exhibit opposing expression patterns and functions in pathological contexts, such as cancer. Here, we describe their specific expression in immune cells and their implications in skin diseases. Although they are structurally similar and considered to be ‘cousins’, we found no common ancestor and that HPSE2 ...

Assessment of Anticancer Effects of Aloe vera on 3D Liver Tumor Spheroids in a Microfluidic Platform
The comparative effects of Doxorubicin and Aloe vera on HepG2 spheroids grown in a microfluidic device are illustrated in the graphical abstract. In the upper panel, red markers indicate that Doxorubicin treatment primarily induces necrosis in the spheroids.

Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) showed at the epidermal level multiple hyporreflective luminal spaces that extended to the dermis, some of them with an amorphous mid‐refractive material. The adjacent stroma had a dense sclerotic appearance.

Chimerolectins: Classification, structural architecture, and functional perspectives
Abstract Lectins are proteins or glycoproteins capable of binding specifically and reversibly to carbohydrates, a property that, in itself, gives them great functional versatility in organisms from all kingdoms of nature. A subclass of these proteins, called chimerolectins, is composed of proteins that have at least one lectin domain associated with ...
