Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor‐Associated Protein (uPARAP) as a Potential Next Generation Molecular Target for Treatment of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST)

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
A key component of the collagen internalization and lysosomal degradation cellular machinery, uPARAP may contribute to cancer progression. Here, the authors explored the expression of uPARAP in gastrointestinal stromal tumors using well‐annotated clinical patient samples and specimens from cell line‐ and patient‐derived xenografts.

Infant frontal alpha asymmetry predicts social attention and transdiagnostic risk for emotional reactivity

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Differences in Frontal Alpha Asymmetry (FAA), derived from the electroencephalogram (EEG), have been associated with approach‐withdrawal behavior, although inconsistently. The current study examined how early patterns of FAA during the first 2 years of life relate to various socioemotional characteristics (at 2 years) and ultimately
