Nestin as a Marker Beyond Angiogenesis—Expression Pattern in Haemangiomas and Lymphangiomas

Biomedicines
Background: The intermediate filament nestin was first described in stem and progenitor cells of neural and mesenchymal origin. Additionally, it is expressed in endothelial cells during wound healing and tumorigenesis.

EDNRA Forms a Positive Feedback Loop with the Hippo/YAP Axis to Drive Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Endothelin receptor type A (EDNRA) and the Hippo/YAP pathway form a self‐reinforcing loop that sustains triple‐negative breast cancer. EDNRA activates YAP through Gαq/11–Rho/ROCK–LATS signaling, while YAP/TEAD4 reciprocally drives EDNRA transcription.

A Rare De Novo Missense Mutation in IFT122 Confers a Genetic Susceptibility Factor of Idiopathic Pediatric Uveitis Via Trio‐based Whole‐Exome Sequencing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rare de novo IFT122‐A773E variant is identified in idiopathic pediatric uveitis and shown to exacerbate retinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction. Mechanistically, the variant enhances IFT43 interaction, elevates calcium signaling, and activates the MEK/ERK/FRA1 axis, revealing a previously unrecognized cilia‐associated pathway that may increase ...

Cx47 fine-tunes the handling of serum lipids but is dispensable for lymphatic vascular function.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Mutations in the gap junction protein connexin47 (Cx47) are associated with lymphedema. However, the role of Cx47 in lymphatic pathophysiology is unknown.

Developing eradication investment cases for onchocerciasis, lymphatic filariasis, and human African trypanosomiasis : rationale and main challenges [PDF]

, 2013
An EIC is essentially an economic composite assessment in the broader meaning of economics, addressing thus all three fundamental economics questions. An EIC in fact answers: 1) the ‘‘What’’ question, that compares remaining in control mode versus moving

Blood Cell‐Camouflaged Liquid Metal Nanoconjugates Orchestrate Treg Depletion and STING‐Amplified Photothermal Immunity for Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐blood biomimetic engineering transforms liquid metal nanoparticles into a tripartite immunotherapeutic platform that orchestrates regulatory T‐cell depletion, photothermal‐induced immunogenic cell death, and activation of the stimulator of interferon genes pathway.

PROX1 loss in adult mouse Schlemm’s canal causes permanent ocular hypertension

JCI Insight
Glaucoma is associated with ocular hypertension, and lowering intraocular pressure is the primary objective of current therapies. Recent studies have established a key role for Schlemm’s canal endothelium in this pressure increase and have shown that it ...

Intracellular uptake of macromolecules by brain lymphatic endothelial cells during zebrafish embryonic development

eLife, 2017
The lymphatic system controls fluid homeostasis and the clearance of macromolecules from interstitial compartments. In mammals brain lymphatics were only recently discovered, with significant implications for physiology and disease. We examined zebrafish

F7 Drives Gastric Cancer Metastasis Through Anoikis Resistance and Tumor Microenvironment Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coagulation factor VII (F7) has been implicated in tumor progression; however, its role in gastric cancer metastasis and immune evasion remains incompletely understood. In this study, we identified F7 as a clinically relevant driver of gastric cancer.

FACTOR VIII-ASSOCIATED ANTIGEN IN HUMAN LYMPHATIC ENDOTHELIUM

, 2017
Lymphatic vascular endothelium both on tissue section and in culture exhibits positivity for Factor VIII-associated antigen although staining is generally less intense and more spotty than in comparable blood vascular endothelium.
