Hyaluronan‐Mediated Motility Receptor Potentiates Colorectal Carcinoma Progression Through PI3K/AKT/mTOR Pathway Modulation

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
Hyaluronan‐mediated motility receptor (HMMR) promotes colorectal cancer progression by enhancing proliferation, migration, and invasion through activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Targeting HMMR effectively suppresses these malignant phenotypes, highlighting its potential as a promising therapeutic target in colorectal carcinoma.

Novel prognostic markers within the CD44‐stromal ligand network in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research, 2019
The dense stroma in pancreatic cancer tumours is rich in secreted extracellular matrix proteins and proteoglycans. Secreted hyaluronan, osteopontin and type IV collagen sustain oncogenic signalling by interactions with CD44s and its variant isoform ...

Improving ARTs: Microfluidics as a Tool for Sperm Selection

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sperm selection is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), as sperm quality directly influences embryo quality. In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

Hyaluronan blocks oligodendrocyte progenitor maturation and remyelination through TLR2

open access: yes, 2010
Failure of remyelination is largely responsible for sustained neurologic symptoms in multiple sclerosis (MS). MS lesions contain hyaluronan deposits that inhibit oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPC) maturation.

Therapeutic access points: The roles of circumventricular organs in drug delivery and metabolic regulation

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The current obesity drug landscape, dominated by GLP‐1 receptor agonists and emerging multi‐agonist therapies, has reinforced that long‐term weight loss is achieved in large part through central mechanisms that suppress appetite and reshape energy balance.

Treatment approaches for equine subchondral lucencies: Clinical considerations and therapeutic decision‐making

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Subchondral lucencies, also referred to as subchondral cystic lesions or osseous cyst‐like lesions, are radiographically identifiable defects of subchondral bone that remain an important cause of lameness and reduced athletic performance in horses.

Protective effects of extracellular vesicle‐like nanoparticles derived from Cannabis sativa adventitious roots against UVB‐induced damage in human keratinocytes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Cannabis sativa root‐derived extracellular vesicle‐like nanoparticles (CA‐NPs) were isolated from adventitious root cultures and subjected to physicochemical characterization. Upon UVB exposure, keratinocytes exhibited increased ROS generation, apoptosis and MAPK activation, leading to oxidative stress and skin damage.

Bakuchiol: From structural mimicry to systems‐level skin biology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Convergent outcomes, divergent mechanisms: bakuchiol vs. retinol. Bakuchiol exhibits functional convergence with retinol in improving extracellular matrix integrity, epidermal differentiation and barrier function, while operating through distinct mechanisms.
