Deducing signaling pathways from parallel actions of arsenite and antimonite in human epidermal keratinocytes. [PDF]
Inorganic arsenic oxides have been identified as carcinogens in several human tissues, including epidermis. Due to the chemical similarity between trivalent inorganic arsenic (arsenite) and antimony (antimonite), we hypothesized that common intracellular

Using a 3D tumor microenvironment (TME)‐on‐a‐chip model, tumor–stromal–immune crosstalk in triple‐negative breast cancer is studied, revealing the TME's combinatorial effect on cancer progression. Integrating single‐cell transcriptomic analysis demonstrates metabolic reprogramming via the kynurenine pathway, highlighting the complex TME cellular ...

Single‐Cell Atlas Reveals Tumorigenic Profiles and Immune Dynamics of Adrenal Incidentalomas
Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals cellular heterogeneity in adrenal incidentalomas, identifying distinct tumor cell populations. Clusterin is recognized as a biomarker for adrenocortical tumors, correlating with established markers. MYCN‐positive clusters in pheochromocytomas indicated poorer survival.

Wang et al. discover a novel lncRNA regulator of mutant oncoprotein which prevents AKT1E17K dephosphorylation. SVIL‐AS1 overexpression correlates with poor prognosis of breast cancer patients. It interacts with AKT1E17K protein and impedes PP2A holoenzyme from dephosphorylating AKT1 by blocking the binding of the regulatory subunit PPP2R2A to AKT1 ...
