DDX3X induces mesenchymal transition of endothelial cells by disrupting BMPR2 signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Elevated DDX3X expression led to downregulation of BMPR2, a key regulator of endothelial homeostasis and function. Our co‐immunoprecipitation assays further demonstrated a molecular interaction between DDX3X and BMPR2. Notably, DDX3X promoted lysosomal degradation of BMPR2, thereby impairing its downstream signaling and facilitating endothelial‐to ...

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Spatio-temporal Models of Lymphangiogenesis in Wound Healing

open access: yes, 2016
Several studies suggest that one possible cause of impaired wound healing is failed or insufficient lymphangiogenesis, that is the formation of new lymphatic capillaries.

The discovery of lymphatic system as a turning point in medical knowledge: Aselli, Pecquet and the end of hepatocentrism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, I would like to analyse the impact of the discovery of lymphatic system on the development of the modern conception of human body. The discovery of lymphatics, as that of blood circulation, has in fact questioned important tenets of Galen ...

Precise Quantification of Angiogenesis in 3D Biomaterials Using in Vitro CAM Models: Enhancing 3Rs in Research and Minimizing in Vivo Dependency

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study develops elastin–fibrin scaffolds and evaluates angiogenesis using the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. Advanced imaging with confocal microscopy and Indocyanine Green dye enables precise 3D quantification of vascular networks. Findings demonstrate superior microvessel visualization compared to micro‐CT using Microfil and Optiray 350 ...

A Review of Mathematical Models for the Formation of\ud Vascular Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mainly two mechanisms are involved in the formation of blood vasculature: vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. The former consists of the formation of a capillary-like network from either a dispersed or a monolayered population of endothelial cells ...

Lymphatic Endothelial Markers and Tumor Lymphangiogenesis Assessment in Human Breast Cancer

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Metastasis via lymphatic vessels or blood vessels is the leading cause of death for breast cancer, and lymphangiogenesis and angiogenesis are critical prerequisites for the tumor invasion–metastasis cascade.
