FEBS Open Bio, 2016 Lysophophatidylcholine (LysoPC) is an abundant constituent in human plasma. Patients with malignant cancer diseases have attenuated LysoPC plasma levels, and thus LysoPC has been examined as a metabolic biomarker for cancer prediction.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Physiologic Role of Decidual .BETA.1 Integrin and Focal Adhesion Kinase in Embryonic Implantation
Endocrine Journal, 2003 Implantation refers to a series of interactions between embryo and endometrium including hatching, attachment, and outgrowth. We investigated the expression and function of beta1 integrin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in human decidual cells during implantation.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Lamins and nesprin-1 mediate inside-out mechanical coupling in muscle cell precursors through FHOD1
Scientific Reports, 2017 LINC complexes are crucial for the response of muscle cell precursors to the rigidity of their environment, but the mechanisms explaining this behaviour are not known. Here we show that pathogenic mutations in LMNA or SYNE-1 responsible for severe muscle

Cells, 2019 Human palatine tonsils are potential tissue source of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The proliferation rate of palatine tonsil-derived MSCs (TMSCs) is far higher than that of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) or adipose tissue-derived MSCs ...

International Journal of Oncology, 2012 Studies suggest a tumor-promoting function of sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) in some types of human tumors, however, its effect on colon cancer is still unclear. The aims of this study were to investigate the roles of SphK1 in the progression and tumor cell phenotypic changes in colon cancer.

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Enterophilin-1 Interacts with Focal Adhesion Kinase and Decreases β1 Integrins in Intestinal Caco-2 Cells [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004 Intestinal cell growth and differentiation are tightly regulated by growth factors and extracellular matrix components along the crypt-villus axis. We previously described enterophilin-1 (Ent-1) as a new intestinal protein associated with growth arrest and enterocyte differentiation.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
