Ascorbic Acid Modulates Collagen Properties in Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteoporotic Bone: Insights into Chemical, Mechanical, and Biological Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 12, 25 March 2026.
Osteoporosis from long‐term glucocorticoid (GIOP) use elevates susceptibility to fracture. This study shows GCs impair ascorbic acid (AA) metabolism in osteoblasts, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix integrity. AA enhanced collagen biochemical and mechanical properties and restored osteoblast and endothelial function. These findings underscore

Impacts of Ionizing Radiation on the Different Compartments of the Tumor Microenvironment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
peer reviewedDuring the last decade, the initial cancer cell-centered view of tumors has greatly evolved to an integrated vision of tumor biology taking into account the key contribution of the TME.

GOT1 Inhibition Induces Extracellular Matrix Remodeling in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
Using tumor tissue engineering, we recreated pancreatic cancer and found that inhibiting glutamic‐oxaloacetic transaminase 1 (GOT1) induces extracellular matrix remodeling and secretome rewiring, as well as promotes cell death. ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer cells rely on glutamine to sustain their survival in the stiff and poorly vascularized tumor ...

Cytokine‐Engineered Chimeric Antigen Receptor‐T Cell Therapy: How to Balance the Efficacy and Toxicity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
Cytokine‐engineered CAR‐T cells represent a promising immunotherapy against malignancies due to direct tumor killing and potent immunity response. However, significant toxicities, including CRS and ICANS, have restricted clinical applications. How to keep the risk‐benefit balance of the advanced therapy is of great importance for maximizing the benefit

Enzyme-catalyzed protein crosslinking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The process of protein crosslinking comprises the chemical, enzymatic, or chemoenzymatic formation of new covalent bonds between polypeptides. This allows (1) the site-directed coupling of proteins with distinct properties and (2) the de novo assembly of

Spatial and temporal changes in extracellular elastin and laminin distribution during lung alveolar development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Lung alveolarization requires precise coordination of cell growth with extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and deposition. The role of extracellular matrices in alveogenesis is not fully understood, because prior knowledge is largely extrapolated from ...

Mitophagy and Ubiquitination Coordinate Context‐Specific Mitochondrial Quality Control and EMT/MET Plasticity to Drive Cancer Cell Invasion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Metastatic invasion emerges when tumor‐intrinsic programs and microenvironmental forces converge on mitochondrial quality control. A context‐stratified framework links mtROS, mtDNA integrity, mechanics and nutrient/oxygen cues to fission–fusion remodeling, mtUPR and mitophagy.

Structure of the Mouse Lysyl Oxidase Gene

open access: yesGenomics, 1993
Lysyl oxidase, an extracellular enzyme involved in the maturation of collagen and elastin, also appears to function as a phenotypic suppressor of transformation by the ras gene product, p21. Genomic clones of the mouse lysyl oxidase gene have been isolated, analyzed, and sequenced.

Exploring the Key Role of Nanotechnology on Intratumoral Microbiome Modulation for Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesMedComm – Biomaterials and Applications, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
The review provides a comprehensive analysis of microbiome‐mediated oncogenic mechanisms in various cancers, emphasizing the unique therapeutic strategies facilitated by nanotechnology. It aims to fill this gap by systematically reviewing nanotechnology‐driven strategies for microbiome elimination, with a focus on their ability to improve the cold TME ...
