Loss of primary cilia promotes EphA2‐mediated endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in the ovarian tumor microenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of primary cilia in endothelial cells promotes EndMT and vascular abnormalities in the ovarian tumor microenvironment through EphA2 activation. Using human samples, in vitro models, and endothelial‐specific Kif3a‐knockout mice, we show that primary cilia loss drives the acquisition of cancer‐associated fibroblast‐like phenotypes, thereby ...

CXCR5+ CD8 T Cells: Protective or Pathogenic?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
CD8 T cells are infrequently considered part of germinal center reactions. Yet, a distinct CXCR5+ CD8 T cell subset identified within the B cell follicle and germinal center in situations of chronic antigen has recently been defined.

A nucleotide‐independent, pan‐RAS‐targeted DARPin elicits anti‐tumor activity in a multimodal manner

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We report a Designed Ankyrin Repeat Protein that binds and inhibits RAS proteins, which serve as central cell signaling hubs and are essential for the progression of many cancers. Its unique feature is that it does not discriminate between different RAS isoforms or mutations and is capable of binding to RAS in both its active (GTP‐bound) and inactive ...

A MACS protocol for purification of untouched germinal center B cells from unimmunized or germinal center-induced mice

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Highly enriched germinal center (GC) B cell populations are essential for studying humoral immunity. Current MACS protocols that isolate untouched GC B cells require GC induction and typically require further FACS purification with direct ...

Normal human lymph node T follicular helper cells and germinal center B cells accessed via fine needle aspirations

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Germinal centers (GC) are critically important for the maturation of the antibody response and the generation of memory B cells, which are the basis for long-term protection from pathogens.

BMP antagonist CHRDL2 enhances the cancer stem‐cell phenotype and increases chemotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Overexpression of CHRDL2 in colon cancer cells makes them more stem‐like and resistant to chemo‐ and radiotherapy. CHRDL2‐high cells have upregulation of the WNT pathway, genes involved in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). This leads to quicker repair of damaged DNA and more cell migration.

FACS Staining for Follicular Helper T Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2012
Germinal center is the primary site for B cells to undergo somatic hypermutation and class switching. A recently discovered subset of T cells known as T follicular helper (TFH) cells are essential for germinal center reaction and thus have been the ...

Tumor clusters with divergent inflammation and human retroelement expression determine the clinical outcome of patients with serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Analysis of treatment‐naïve high‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) and control tissues for ERVs, LINE‐1 (L1), inflammation, and immune checkpoints identified five clusters with diverse patient recurrence‐free survivals. An inflammation score was calculated and correlated with retroelement expression, where one novel cluster (Triple‐I) with high ...
