The role of receptor tyrosine kinase signalling in HER-2-positive cells and trastuzumab (Herceptin) resistance in breast cancer [PDF]

, 2009
HER-2 gene amplification or overexpression occurs in approximately 25 % of breast cancers, and trastuzumab (Tmab) is a monoclonal antibody currently used to treat patients with HER-2-overexpressing breast cancer.

A tissue-engineered human psoriatic skin model: targeting inflammation and glucose metabolism dysregulation in psoriasis using microneedle patches

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Psoriasis, an inflammatory skin disease, affects nearly 43 million individuals globally, and patients are 59% more likely to have type 2 diabetes. In this study, tissue-engineered psoriatic human skin substitutes were produced using keratinocytes and ...

Phosphorylated insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (pIGF1R) is a poor prognostic factor in brain metastases from lung adenocarcinomas

, 2014
A greater understanding of brain metastases is imperative for developing novel therapeutic strategies. Our previous study showed that insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling pathway was activated in brain-tropic cancer cells.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

The Role of Insulin and Insulin-like Growth Factors in the Increased Risk of Cancer in Diabetes

Rambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2011
Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at increased risk of developing cancer. This evidence arises from numerous epidemiologic studies that relate a positive association between T2D and cancer. In-vitro and several in-vivo experiments have attempted to

Understanding and Mitigating the Risk of Accelerated Biological Aging in Survivors of Cancer: A Scoping Review

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Cancer treatment is associated with measurable acceleration of biological aging across epigenetic, telomere, senescence, and immune biomarkers. However, biomarker validation and interventional strategies remain limited, especially in hematologic malignancies, underscoring the need for standardized multi‐omic aging assessments and adequately powered ...

Skeletal muscle stem cells confer maturing macrophages anti‐inflammatory properties through insulin‐like growth factor‐2

Stem Cells Translational Medicine, 2020
Cytokines produced by immune cells have been demonstrated to act on muscle stem cells (MuSCs) and direct their fate and behavior during muscle repair and regeneration.

Patients improve, patterns persist: longitudinal stability of RA joint involvement patterns

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis is a heterogeneous disease. Data‐driven approaches, from synovial histology to joint involvement patterns (JIPs), have sought to define clinically meaningful subgroups. Whether these subgroups represent stable phenotypes or transient disease states remains unclear.

Tumor-stroma derived gene expression patterns as prognosticators in breast cancer [PDF]

, 2010
The stroma, which embeds epithelial cells, plays a major role in the shaping and physiological regulation of animal organs such as the breast. Aberrant functioning of the stroma was found to support tumorigenesis and cancer progression.

2D Skeletal Muscle Thin Film Actuators Enhance Efficiency of Biohybrid Robots

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D skeletal muscle thin film actuators generate millinewton‐scale forces and millimeter‐scale strokes while remaining functional for over 30 days. Their force density is 20‐fold higher than 3D skeletal muscle actuators, enabling multi‐fin robots with tunable speed and multidirectional steering.
