Stromagenesis and cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity in primary tumors and metastasis: focus in non‐small cell lung cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play different roles in NSCLC progression and metastasis. Their heterogeneous origins and phenotypes shape the tumor microenvironment and influence metastatic spread. This review highlights NSCLC CAF subtypes, their potential cellular sources, and their differential distribution across primary tumors and distant ...

Pulmonary Hypertension Due to Left Heart Diseases

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
Pulmonary hypertension (PH), a common complication of left heart diseases (LHD), negatively impacts symptoms, exercise capacity, and outcome. Although the true prevalence of PH-LHD is unknown, a subset of patients might present significant PH that cannot be explained by a passive increase in left-sided filling pressures. The term "out-of-proportion" PH

Prognosis and Treatment With Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors in Combined Post‐ and Precapillary Pulmonary Hypertension: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis From the Hellenic Pulmonary Hypertension Registry

Pulmonary Circulation
Combined post‐ and precapillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH) comprises the most severe form of postcapillary PH. A severe precapillary component (pulmonary vascular resistance [PVR] > 5 WU) is critical for therapeutic decisions.

Identification of amino acids essential for angulin‐1/3 binding of the tricellular tight junction binder, angubindin‐1

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Angubindin‐1 binds angulin‐1/‐3 at tricellular tight junctions, enhancing intestinal macromolecule permeation. Alanine scanning identified six essential residues (L562, L598, E638, V640, Y643, and K644) of angubindin‐1 critical for binding to angulin‐1/‐3 and permeation‐enhancing activity, providing insights for the development of targeted noninvasive ...
