CEBPG‐Mediated Palmitic Acid Adaptation of Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts Drives Metastasis of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a metabolic signaling axis in the OSCC microenvironment where palmitic acid (PA) drives the activation of CAFs. PA uptake triggers CEBPG‐dependent epigenetic remodeling to upregulate ERN1 and TMBIM6, thereby mitigating ER stress. This adaptive program sustains CAF survival and the pro‐metastatic phenotype, establishing this pathway ...

CCL3 and IL‐7 Synergistically Enhance CAR‐T Efficacy in Solid Tumors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Synergistic delivery of CCL3 and IL‐7 by CAR‐T cells overcomes the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by enhancing cell infiltration, survival, and local immune reprogramming. This also establishes positive feedback that amplifies anti‐tumor activity and memory responses in both CAR‐T and endogenous T cells, presenting a robust therapeutic ...

From Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection to Merkel Cell Carcinoma Oncogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) infection causes near-ubiquitous, asymptomatic infection in the skin, but occasionally leads to an aggressive skin cancer called Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC).

Bio‐Inspired Mechanical Amplification Block on Implantable Tactile Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Implantable strain sensors offer opportunities for continuous biomechanical monitoring, but their performance deteriorates severely once embedded in soft tissue due to mechanical shielding that suppresses strain transmission to the sensing layer.

Inhibitory Immune Checkpoints beyond Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 in Merkel Cell Carcinoma: Abundant Expression of TIGIT Independent of the Presence of Merkel Cell Polyoma Virus

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica
Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare, aggressive skin cancer in which Merkel cell polyoma virus (MCPyV) is frequently pathogenically involved. After failure of anti-programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 immunotherapy, therapeutic ...

Swelling-activated Ca2+ channels trigger Ca2+ signals in Merkel cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Merkel cell-neurite complexes are highly sensitive touch receptors comprising epidermal Merkel cells and sensory afferents. Based on morphological and molecular studies, Merkel cells are proposed to be mechanosensory cells that signal afferents via ...

Human fetal skin derived merkel cells display distinctive characteristics in vitro and in bio-engineered skin substitutes in vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Human skin contains specialized neuroendocrine Merkel cells responsible for fine touch sensation. In the present study, we performed in-depth analysis of Merkel cells in human fetal back skin. We revealed that these Merkel cells expressed cytokeratin 20 (
