Integrins require an activation step prior to ligand binding and signaling. How talin and kindlin contribute to these events in non-hematopoietic cells is poorly understood.

TLR Agonist Nano Immune Therapy Clears Peritoneal and Systemic Ovarian Cancer
Intraperitoneal administration of immunogenic Toll‐like receptor agonist‐modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles leads to rapid internalization by ascites myeloid cells with trafficking to fat‐associated lymphoid clusters. Activation of myeloid cells counters suppressive immune mechanisms associated with peritoneal metastasis, leading to regional and ...

Schematic illustration of the mechanism of targeted delivery of nanoparticles including 1) paracellular, 2) endolysosomal escape, 3) receptor mediated endocytosis, and 4) M cell mediated transport for non‐GI diseases by oral administration such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, and brain diseases. Abstract Oral drug delivery is a promising approach

Liquid Crystalline Networks Hamper the Malignancy of Cancer Cells
Liquid Crystalline Networks are used as scaffolds for the growth of A375 melanoma cells demonstrating to affect their malignancy. Indeed, only by contact, these materials reduces cell proliferation and colony formation capacity, while increasing the number of senescent cells and promoting the mesenchymal to epithelial transition.

Engineering the Rod of Asclepius – A Biochemical Investigation of Snake Venom Components and their Application as Potential Cancer Treatments [PDF]
In the wild, venom is crucial to many snakes’ success as predators. While antivenin research focuses on combatting venoms’ abilities to disrupt physiological processes, new studies are attempting to manipulate these same abilities into anticancer ...

Synthetic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐degradable polyethylene glycol (PEG)‐based hydrogels are developed to investigate the influence of mechanical and biochemical cues on cardioid development. Matrix stiffness and cell adhesion motifs significantly regulate cardioid formation, chamber morphogenesis, contractile function, and cardioid transcriptome.
