Comprehensive analysis and functional validation of key genes in bladder cancer progression

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Bladder cancer is highly diverse between patients, making it difficult to accurately predict who will have aggressive disease and poor outcomes. In this study, we integrated single‐cell RNA sequencing with clinical survival data to identify a simple three‐gene signature (FAM3B, C10orf99, and VMP1) that stratifies patients into high‐ and low‐risk groups.

Midkine—A novel player in cardiovascular diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Midkine (MK) is a 13-kDa heparin-binding cytokine and growth factor with anti-apoptotic, pro-angiogenic, pro-inflammatory and anti-infective functions, that enable it to partake in a series of physiological and pathophysiological processes. In the past, research revolving around MK has concentrated on its roles in reproduction and development, tissue ...

Relationship between serum Midkine and Omentin-1 levels and the severity of sepsis in patients and their prognostic value

open access: yesLibyan Journal of Medicine
To explore the relationship between serum levels of midkine and omentin-1 and the severity of sepsis in patients, and their prognostic value. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 180 sepsis patients. According to the severity of

Small Molecule BRD4 Inhibitors Apabetalone and JQ1 Rescues Endothelial Cells Dysfunction, Protects Monolayer Integrity and Reduces Midkine Expression

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
NF-κB signaling is a key regulator of inflammation and atherosclerosis. NF-κB cooperates with bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4), a transcriptional and epigenetic regulator, in endothelial inflammation.

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 1000-1019, May 2026.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...
