β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

Lung Microphysiological System Validates Novel Cell Therapy for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of primed mesenchymal stem cells (pMSCs) as an alternative treatment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), based on a novel lung microphysiological system (MPS) to test the efficacy of pMSCs over the standard treatment, Dexamethasone.

Differentiation Treatment Applied to Lung Cancer Model Reduces Pathogenic Traits in Vitro
Non‐small cell lung cancer cells (A549) treated with a differentiation medium showed strong reduction in proliferation, migration, clonogenicity, spheroid formation and stemness markers, with enhanced adhesion properties and alveolar features, all pointing to a notably less aggressive phenotype in support of differentiation therapy as a promising ...
