A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Chronic ulcerative oesophagitis rich in IgG4‐positive plasma cells – a distinct clinicopathological entity

open access: yesHistopathology, EarlyView.
We report a series of 12 patients (mean age 63 years) with chronic oesophageal ulceration showing morphological features of IgG4‐related inflammatory disease. Most patients underwent several rounds of endoscopy until this association was recognized. The majority of patients went into clinical and histological remission following corticosteroid therapy.

Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid After Anti‐PD‐1 Therapy: Risk‐Stratified Management and Treatment Outcomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) following anti‐programmed cell death‐1 (PD‐1) therapy is rare but increasingly reported. Management of high‐ and low‐risk MMP in this setting and the potential oncologic trade‐offs remain poorly defined. We performed a narrative synthesis of all published cases of anti‐PD‐1‐associated MMP, following MEDLINE ...

Role of BK Virus CTLs in the Treatment of BK Virus–Associated Nephropathy in Kidney‐Transplant and Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Recipients

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Third‐party, BK virus‐specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) were safe and effective in reducing viremia in kidney and stem cell transplant recipients with BK virus nephropathy. However, they did not improve kidney function. Earlier administration may be more beneficial before nephropathy and irreversible damage occur.
