FGFR Like1 drives esophageal cancer progression via EMT, PI3K/Akt, and notch signalling: insights from clinical data and next‐generation sequencing analysis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Clinical analysis reveals significant dysregulation of FGFRL1 in esophageal cancer (EC) patients. RNAi‐coupled next‐generation sequencing (NGS) and in vitro study reveal FGFRL1‐mediated EC progression via EMT, PI3K/Akt, and Notch pathways. Functional assays confirm its role in tumor growth, migration, and invasion.

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Proteome-wide Mendelian randomization identifies therapeutic targets for ankylosing spondylitis

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundAnkylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder which can lead to considerable pain and disability. Mendelian randomization (MR) has been extensively applied for repurposing licensed drugs and uncovering new therapeutic targets ...

Microglial dynamics and ferroptosis induction in human iPSC‐derived neuron–astrocyte–microglia tri‐cultures

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A tri‐culture of iPSC‐derived neurons, astrocytes, and microglia treated with ferroptosis inducers as an Induced ferroptosis model was characterized by scRNA‐seq, cell survival, and cytokine release assays. This analysis revealed diverse microglial transcriptomic changes, indicating that the system captures key aspects of the complex cellular ...

Polygenic scores and Mendelian randomization identify plasma proteins causally implicated in Alzheimer’s disease

Frontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundAn increasing body of evidence suggests that neuroinflammation is one of the key drivers of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD) pathology. Due to the increased permeability of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) in older adults, peripheral plasma ...

HIV‐1 establishes immediate latency in T cells expressing the viral Nef protein

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Nef is a viral protein often omitted from HIV‐1 reporter viruses. Consequently, its role in viral latency is unclear. We developed three novel dual reporter HIV‐1 derivatives that express Nef and allow for detection of latent and productive infection. Using these reporters, we show that Nef does not affect the establishment of immediate viral latency ...

Identification and validation of plasma protein biomarkers as therapeutic targets in acute myeloid leukemia: an integrative multi-omics study

Frontiers in Immunology
IntroductionAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains a therapeutic challenge due to its high relapse rate and limited treatment options. This study aimed to identify and validate novel circulating protein biomarkers with causal roles in AML pathogenesis ...

Dapagliflozin prevents methylglyoxal‐induced retinal cell death in ARPE‐19 cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Diabetic macular oedema is a diabetes complication of the eye, which may lead to permanent blindness. ARPE‐19 are human retinal cells used to study retinal diseases and potential therapeutics. Methylglyoxal is a compound increased in uncontrolled diabetes due to elevated blood glucose.
