Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Protein recruitment to receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated early signalling complexes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signalling regulates the activation of numerous cellular processes in response to various external stimuli. Spatio-temporal regulation of protein recruitment to activated tyrosine kinase receptors is important for the ...

G protein coupled receptor 41 regulates fibroblast activation in pulmonary fibrosis via Gαi/o and downstream Smad2/3 and ERK1/2 phosphorylation

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2023
Pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive and fatal fibrotic lung disease with mysterious pathogenesis and limited effective therapies. G protein-coupled receptors (GPRs) participate in a variety of physiologic functions, and several GPRs have critical ...

Neutralization of the PTX3/CD44 axis suppresses TGF‐β1 signaling in kidney fibrosis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study investigates how the PTX3/CD44 axis promotes kidney fibrosis by activating TGF‐β1 signaling. We demonstrate that the neutralizing antibody WHC‐001 effectively inhibits this pathway, suppressing myofibroblast activation and partial epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT).

The Effects of Berberine and Nitroxl (HNO) on the Glucose Uptake in L929 Fibroblast Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Berberine, which has a long history of use in Chinese medicine, has recently been shown to have efficacy in the treatment of diabetes. While the hypoglycemic effect of berberine has been clearly documented in animal and cell line models, such as 3T3-L1 ...

Bioluminescent Probe for Monitoring Endogenous Fibroblast Activation Protein-Alpha

open access: yes, 2019
Fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP), as a crucial member of cell surface glycoprotein, highly expresses in reactive fibroblasts of tumors and several fibrosis diseases. It is a potential target for drug design and also reported as a prodrug strategy to

Evaluation of folate receptor-alpha and other surface markers as potential targets for radionuclide therapy of ovarian cancer

open access: yesEJNMMI Research
Background Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has the highest mortality rate among gynecological malignancies, primarily due to frequent late-stage diagnosis and the development of resistance to chemotherapy.

Rosiglitazone inhibits TGF-β 1 induced activation of human Tenon fibroblasts via p38 signal pathway. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Transdifferentiation of human Tenon fibroblasts to myofibroblasts and subsequent deposition of extracellular matrix is a key step in the scarring after glaucoma filtration surgery.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
