Targeting the C-terminus of galectin-9 induces mesothelioma apoptosis and M2 macrophage depletion

OncoImmunology, 2019
Galectin-9 has emerged as a promising biological target for cancer immunotherapy due to its role as a regulator of macrophage and T-cell differentiation. In addition, its expression in tumor cells modulates tumor cell adhesion, metastasis, and apoptosis.

Consequences of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator mutations on inflammatory cells [PDF]

, 2016
Recent studies in cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane regulator (CFTR) mutations and function have shed light on its involvement in disease progression. The extent of cell and tissue distribution of CFTR facilitates systemic dysfunction of ion transport ...

Targeting Immunologic Pathways in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Translating Emerging Evidence Into Clinical Practice

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare and potentially life‐threatening systemic, inflammatory disease with multi‐organ manifestations, variable presentation and complex pathology. Multiple interconnected immunological pathways are implicated in EGPA pathology, including a type‐2 immune response driving predominantly ...

The anti‐fibrotic effects of novel heart failure pharmacotherapies in advanced heart failure patients

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Novel heart failure (HF) pharmacotherapies, including angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), may confer cardiovascular benefits by attenuating myocardial fibrosis. However, direct evidence from human failing myocardial samples is limited.

Synergistic antiviral activity against human adenovirus through combination of itraconazole and brincidofovir

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Human adenovirus (HAdV) causes respiratory or gastrointestinal tract infections depending on the virus subtype. While HAdV infections are generally self‐limiting in immunocompetent people, they can result in significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised adults and children.

The relationship between the cannabinoids and cardiac remodelling: A comprehensive review of pivotal mechanisms and emerging evidence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cardiac remodelling and fibrosis after myocardial infarction or during chronic diseases, such as arterial and pulmonary hypertension or diabetes mellitus, continue to be the more important prognostic factors in determining survival, and so the search for effective anti‐fibrotic interventions is an important target for research and therapy in cardiology.

SUSD2 Promotes Metastasis and Primary Tumor Growth in Pancreatic Cancer Cells via Integrin–FAK Signaling Activation

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the role of Sushi domain‐containing 2 (SUSD2) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and demonstrates that SUSD2 enhances both metastasis and primary tumor growth by promoting integrin β1–FAK signaling. SUSD2 interacts with integrin β1, enhancing adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen 1 and ...

Unusual Cytology Features of A DICER1‐Mutated Thyroid Nodule: Raising Awareness of A Potential Diagnostic Pitfall During Fine Needle Aspiration

Cytopathology, EarlyView.
This article describes the unusual cytology features of a DICER1‐mutated thyroid nodule. Fine needle aspiration revealed predominantly cell debris/degenerated cells and rare viable follicular cells with mild cytologic atypia. Surgical resection revealed a nodule with nearly complete infarction, which is one specific feature of DICER1‐mutated thyroid ...

Beyond PD‐1: Mechanisms of Resistance to Checkpoint Blockade in Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma and Next‐Generation Immune Strategies

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PD‐1 inhibitors have reshaped the treatment landscape of classical Hodgkin lymphoma, yet a substantial proportion of patients exhibit primary or acquired resistance driven by tumor‐intrinsic alterations, immunosuppressive microenvironmental signals, metabolic constraints, and EBV‐mediated modulation.

TGFβ enhances platelet–breast‐cancer‐cell interaction and promotes platelet aggregation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
TGFβ stimulation promotes EMT in MCF7 cells, increasing their ability to bind, activate, and aggregate PLT. This effect involves the upregulation of adhesion molecules Integrin‐αv and Galectin‐3. Inhibiting Integrin‐αv or Galectin‐3, through Cilengitide and GB1103, reduces PLT adhesion to MCF7 and PLT aggregation, suggesting a mechanism linking TGFβ ...
