In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Stains Induce Apoptosis and Autophagy in Primary and Transformed Mast Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Statin drugs are widely employed in the clinic to reduce serum low density lipoproteins (LDLs) in patients with hypocholesteremia. In addition to their cholesterol-lowering effects through HMG CoA reductase antagonism, isoprenyl lipids necessary for ...

Interactions between mast cells and smooth muscle in asthma models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Allergic asthma is the major phenotype of asthma and is characterized by specific responses to allergens as well as airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), inflammation and remodelling.

LINC01116, a hypoxia‐lncRNA marker of pathological lymphangiogenesis and poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The LINC01116 long noncoding RNA is induced by hypoxia and associated with poor prognosis and high recurrence rates in two cohorts of lung adenocarcinoma patients. Here, we demonstrate that besides its expression in cancer cells, LINC01116 is markedly expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells of the tumor stroma in which it participates in hypoxia ...

MiR-221 influences effector functions and actin cytoskeleton in mast cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Mast cells have essential effector and immunoregulatory functions in IgE-associated allergic disorders and certain innate and adaptive immune responses, but the role of miRNAs in regulating mast cell functions is almost completely unexplored.

Monocyte LOXHD1 and RHOB Expression Predictive of Progressive Systemic Sclerosis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A leading cause of death among patients with scleroderma (SSc), interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

Mast cell‐based molecular subtypes and signature associated with clinical outcome in early‐stage lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2020
Mast cells are a major component of the immune microenvironment in tumour tissues and modulate tumour progression by releasing pro‐tumorigenic and antitumorigenic molecules.

Neuroinflammation, Mast Cells, and Glia: Dangerous Liaisons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The perspective of neuroinflammation as an epiphenomenon following neuron damage is being replaced by the awareness of glia and their importance in neural functions and disorders.

Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.

Activation of the receptor KIT induces the secretion of exosome‐like small extracellular vesicles

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Biology
The receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) KIT and its ligand stem cell factor (SCF) are essential for human mast cell (huMC) survival and proliferation. HuMCs expressing oncogenic KIT variants secrete large numbers of extracellular vesicles (EVs).
