Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.

Differential response of skeletal muscles to mTORC1 signaling during atrophy and hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Skeletal muscle mass is determined by the balance between protein synthesis and degradation. Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a master regulator of protein translation and has been implicated in the control of muscle mass ...

Heterozygous loss‐of‐function alleles associate the conserved 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease EXOSC10 with hypersensitivity to the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
EXOSC10, an essential nuclear RNA exosome‐associated 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease, is inhibited by the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and EXOSC10 depletion increases 5‐FU sensitivity. The colon‐cancer variant EXOSC10S402T, located in a proteolysis motif, is stable and nuclear but nonfunctional in vivo.

Muscle Differentiation: A Gene for Slow Muscle? [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2004
Skeletal muscle comes in two fundamental flavours, slow and fast, which determine physiological performance. Zebrafish screens have provided a handle on the molecular mechanism driving slow muscle formation. The transcriptional repressor Blimp1 has now been shown to be required in embryonic slow muscle precursor cells.

Fatigue of the respiratory muscles

open access: yes
The respiratory system is tasked with the transfer of oxygen from air to blood as well as the regulation of carbon dioxide and pH. Cyclical contraction of the respiratory muscles permits relative blood gas homeostasis in healthy humans even under ...

Adaptor protein CIN85 potentiates the motility of osteosarcoma cells via the Akt/mTOR and MMP2‐COL3A1 axis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
CIN85 is highly expressed in osteosarcoma, particularly in metastatic lesions. Its overexpression increases cell migration and Matrigel invasion, while silencing CIN85 suppresses these behaviors. Transcriptome analysis shows that CIN85 regulates MMP2, COL3A1, and Akt/mTOR signaling. Targeting these pathways reverses CIN85‐induced motility, highlighting

Resting Systemic Irisin Concentrations Are Lower in Older versus Younger Males after 12 Weeks of Resistance-Exercise Training While Apelin and IL-15 Concentrations Were Increased in the Whole Cohort

open access: yesMuscles
Myokines released by exercise are identified as factors that can influence a person’s health and wellbeing. While myokine secretion in response to an acute bout of endurance and resistance-type exercise has been examined, the influence of resistance ...
