circRMST (hsa_circ_0099634) is by far the most abundant isoform from the RMST locus. It is highly expressed in cancer cells throughout ependymoma patient samples and is located in the cytoplasm. circRMST knockdown causes cell cycle arrest and induces differentiation, and it is a marker for poor prognosis. The figure is made using BioRender.

EphB4 and EphA2 positivity in lung adenocarcinoma samples was high. Ligand‐based EphB4 CAR‐T cells exhibit bispecificity, targeting both EphB4 and EphA2. EphB4 CAR‐T cells exert significant antitumor effects against lung adenocarcinoma. ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)‐T cells generated using ephrin‐B2, the natural ligand for ephrin type‐B ...
