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.

Living on soup:Macropinocytic feeding in amoebae [PDF]
, 2019 Macropinocytosis is used by a variety of amoebae for feeding on liquid medium. The amoebae project cups and ruffles from their plasma membrane, driven by actin polymerization, and eventually fuse these back to the membrane, entrapping droplets of medium ...

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.Model for how α‐syn modulates the positioning of endolysosomes in melanoma cells. (a) α‐syn tethers endolysosomes to the plasma membrane, a last step in anterograde transport. (b) Loss of α‐syn expression causes the loss of the tethering function, which leads to perinuclear vesicle clustering. Reproduced from the open access article.

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Succinate dehydrogenase‐deficient (SDH‐deficient) gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are characterized by variable disease biology with poor responses to traditional tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The role of surgical intervention has been highly debated.

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT CRISPR‐Cas9 genome‐wide screening has been instrumental towards identifying novel targets for drug discovery in cancer research. However, much of this research has centred specifically on adult cancers, with paediatric cancers being underserviced by current research and screening.
