Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Identification and Structural Characterization of a Novel COL3A1 Gene Duplication in a Family With Vascular Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Background Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is caused by alterations in the COL3A1 gene, typically involving missense variants that replace glycine residues.

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 ...

Metalloproteinases in atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pharmacology, 2017
Atherosclerosis underlies most cardiovascular diseases, and is accepted as a primary cause of mortality worldwide. Proteases have been implicated in the development and progression of atherosclerosis, due to their ability to provoke focal destruction of the vascular extracellular matrix.

Next‐generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This is one of very few studies that used prediagnostic blood samples from participants of two large population‐based cohorts. We identified, evaluated, and validated an innovative protein marker model that outperformed an established risk prediction model and criteria employed by low‐dose computed tomography in lung cancer screening trials.

The role of proteases in pathologies of the synovial joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Synovial (diarthrodial) joints are employed within the body to provide skeletal mobility and have a characteristic structure adapted to provide a smooth almost frictionless surface for articulation.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

FECAL MICROBIOTA TRANSPLANTATION IN CRITICAL CONDITION PATIENTS IN HEMATOLOGICAL PRACTICE

open access: yesВестник анестезиологии и реаниматологии, 2019
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an effective method to treat malignancy and some solid tumors which may be accompanied by life-threatening immune and infectious complications refractory to standard immunosuppressive and ...

MMP2 as an independent prognostic stratifier in oral cavity cancers

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2020
Background Around 25% of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC) are not controlled by the standard of care, but there is currently no validated biomarker to identify those patients. Our objective was to determine a robust biomarker for severe OCSCC,
