Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Feedback Inhibition of Bacterial Nucleotidyltransferases by Rare Nucleotide l‑Sugars Restricts Substrate Promiscuity

, 2023
Bacterial glycomes are rich in prokaryote-specific or “rare” sugars that are absent in mammals. Like common sugars found across organisms, rare sugars are typically activated as nucleoside diphosphate sugars (NDP-sugars) by nucleotidyltransferases.
