Effects of growth factors and receptor blockade on gastrointestinal cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The advent of recombinant peptide technology offers the potential to use one or several peptides to treat a variety of gastrointestinal conditions. However, although cell culture and animal models have shown proof of concept, we are still at a relatively

RIPK4 function interferes with melanoma cell adhesion and metastasis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RIPK4 promotes melanoma growth and spread. RIPK4 levels increase as skin lesions progress to melanoma. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of RIPK4 causes melanoma cells to form less compact spheroids, reduces their migratory and invasive abilities and limits tumour growth and dissemination in mouse models.

A neonatal intensive care nurse experience of an automated chyme reinfusion therapy device: A case report describing use in a neonate with necrotising enterocolitis

open access: yesIntestinal Failure
Background: Neonatal intestinal failure related to double enterostomies is rare and associated with high morbidity and mortality. Chyme reinfusion therapy (CRT) remediates high outputs and improves nutrition and electrolyte balance of neonates.

Surgeon\u27s perspective on short bowel syndrome: Where are we? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is due to a massive loss of small bowel: the reduction of gut function is below the minimum necessary to maintain health (in adults) and growth (in children) so intravenous supplementation is required.

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Combination of anti-TNFα therapy and surgical resection for severe chronic intestinal rejection: A case report

open access: yesIntestinal Failure
Background: Acute cellular rejection (ACR) is a well-recognised cause of graft failure in intestinal transplant (ITx) recipients. Management of ACR is with intravenous (IV) steroids, increased immunosuppression and T-cell depleting therapies.

Epithelial organization and cyst lumen expansion require efficient Sec13-Sec31-driven secretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Epithelial morphogenesis is directed by interactions with the underlying extracellular matrix. Secretion of collagen and other matrix components requires efficient coat complex II (COPII) vesicle formation at the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we show that

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...
