Autologous plasma‐derived platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) is prepared as a protective shield for mesenchymal stem cell spheroids (Sp‐MSCs). PRF forms a fibrin shield to protect Sp‐MSCs from the oxidative stress environment. The nutrients in PRF, particularly the α‐granules, can enhance the repair function of Sp‐MSCs.

Hedgehog Signaling: An Achilles’ Heel in Cancer
Hedgehog signaling pathway originally identified in the fruit fly Drosophila is an evolutionarily conserved signaling mechanism with crucial roles in embryogenesis, growth and patterning. It exerts its biological effect through a signaling mechanism that

Pathway drug cocktail: targeting Ras signaling based on structural pathways [PDF]
Tumors bearing Ras mutations are notoriously difficult to treat. Drug combinations targeting the Ras protein or its pathway have also not met with success. Pathway drug cocktails, which are combinations aiming at parallel pathways, appear more promising; however, to be usefully exploited, a repertoire of classified pathway combinations is desirable ...

Roughing Up Smoothened: Chemical Modulators of Hedgehog Signaling [PDF]
Small-molecule antagonists of Hedgehog-pathway signaling, such as cyclopamine, have been known for some time. Now, small-molecule agonists of the Hedgehog pathway have also been identified.

Investigating the role of Hedgehog/GLI1 signaling in glioblastoma cell response to temozolomide. [PDF]
Resistance to chemotherapy substantially hinders successful glioblastoma (GBM) treatment, contributing to an almost 100% mortality rate. Resistance to the frontline chemotherapy, temozolomide (TMZ), arises from numerous signaling pathways that are ...

Identifying biomarkers associated with PTC, particularly those related to PTMC progression, is crucial for precise risk stratification and treatment planning. This study utilized single‐cell RNA sequencing on 19 surgical tissue specimens, confirmed PROS1/MERTK axis as a critical component of the cellular microenvironment and a key regulatory mechanism ...

The Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Emerges as a Pathogenic Target [PDF]
The Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway plays an essential role in the growth, development, and homeostatis of many tissues in vertebrates and invertebrates. Much of what is known about Hh signaling is in the context of embryonic development and tumor formation.

The study identifies a novel circular RNA derived from the TP53 gene (circTP53), which is upregulated in HNSCC and correlates with poor patient prognosis. It demonstrates that circTP53 promotes HNSCC progression by interacting with USP10, stabilizing both proteins, enhancing deubiquitination of p53, and thereby influencing tumor growth, with its ...

Vismodegib suppresses TRAIL-mediated liver injury in a mouse model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. [PDF]
Hedgehog signaling pathway activation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of NASH. Despite this concept, hedgehog pathway inhibitors have not been explored. Thus, we examined the effect of vismodegib, a hedgehog signaling pathway inhibitor, in a diet-

Post‐Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies
This review synthesizes current understanding of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in ciliary proteins and emphasizes their roles in ciliary formation, homeostasis, and signaling. This review also discusses the implication of PTM dysregulation in ciliopathies and explores therapeutic strategies targeting PTM‐modifying enzymes.
