Kindlin-2 mediates mechanotransduction in bone by regulating expression of Sclerostin in osteocytes
Communications Biology, 2021 Qin et al. show the involvement of Kindlin-2 in osteocyte mechanotransduction. They show Kindlin-2 mediates skeletal responses to mechanical stimulation through Smad 2/3 mediated inhibition of Sclerostin.

Diversity of Dynamics and Morphologies of Invasive Solid Tumors
, 2012 Complex tumor-host interactions can significantly affect the growth dynamics and morphologies of progressing neoplasms. The growth of a confined solid tumor induces mechanical pressure and deformation of the surrounding microenvironment, which in turn ...

Roles of tumor suppressors in regulating tumor-associated inflammation. [PDF]
, 2014 Loss or silencing of tumor suppressors (TSs) promotes neoplastic transformation and malignant progression. To date, most work on TS has focused on their cell autonomous effects.

Hyaluronic acid alters vessel behavior in CXCL12-treated HUVECs [PDF]
, 2018 Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a key component of the extracellular matrix known for absorbing water, swelling, and altering solid stress of tumors. HA’s anionic behavior may provide important biochemical effects toward tumor progression as well.

Neurofibromin knockdown in glioma cell lines is associated with changes in cytokine and chemokine secretion in vitro. [PDF]
, 2018 The neurofibromin-1 tumor suppressor gene (NF1) is altered in approximately 20% of sporadic glioblastoma (GBM) cases. NF1 deficient GBM frequently shows a mesenchymal gene expression signature, suggesting a relationship between NF1 status and the tumor ...
