Effects of Simulated Heat Wave on Oxidative Physiology and Immunity in Asian Yellow Pond Turtle (Mauremys mutica)

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Global warming has led to an increase in the frequency, duration, and intensity of heat waves in the summer, which can cause frequent and acute heat stress on ectotherms. Thus, determining how ectothermic animals respond to heat waves has been attracting

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...
