Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Notch signaling mediates the age-associated decrease in adhesion of germline stem cells to the niche. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Stem cells have an innate ability to occupy their stem cell niche, which in turn, is optimized to house stem cells. Organ aging is associated with reduced stem cell occupancy in the niche, but the mechanisms involved are poorly understood.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Notch signaling pathway in cancer: from mechanistic insights to targeted therapies

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
Notch signaling, renowned for its role in regulating cell fate, organ development, and tissue homeostasis across metazoans, is highly conserved throughout evolution.

Notch signaling represses cone photoreceptor formation through the regulation of retinal progenitor cell states

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Notch signaling is required to repress the formation of vertebrate cone photoreceptors and to maintain the proliferative potential of multipotent retinal progenitor cells.

Molecular genetic analysis of a "sine oculis" enhancer and the "leventina" gene as a model system to study human macular degeneration in "Drosophila" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The leventina gene as a model system to study human macular degeneration in Drosophila. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the most frequent reasons for blindness of the elderly people and accounts for approximately 50% of registered ...

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

The role of the notch signalling pathway in vascular smooth muscle cell apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Notch signalling system is a highly conserved method of cell-to-cell communication involved in cell fate decisions in many cell types. Until recently, the importance of the Notch signalling pathway was recognized in the embryonic but not in the adult

Notch Signaling in the Vasculature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Notch signaling is an evolutionarily conserved, intercellular signaling mechanism that plays myriad roles during vascular development and physiology in vertebrates. These roles include the regulation of arteriovenous specification and differentiation in both endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells, regulation of blood vessel sprouting and ...

Notching on Cancer’s Door: Notch Signaling in Brain Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2015
Notch receptors play an essential role in the regulation of central cellular processes during embryonic and postnatal development. The mammalian genome encodes for four Notch paralogs (Notch 1-4), which are activated by three Delta-like (Dll1/3/4) and two Serrate-like (Jagged1/2) ligands.
