IL‐4/STAT6‐signaling Influences Local Inflammation and Regeneration Processes During Acute Pancreatitis and Promotes Fibrosis by a Direct Activation of Pancreatic Fibroblasts During Chronic Pancreatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐4/IL‐13/STAT6 signaling plays a crucial for the suppression of pro‐inflammation during acute pancreatitis and supports acinar cell regeneration but has only minor impact on fibrogenesis during chronic form of the disease. IL‐4/IL‐13 induce the expression of certain collagens directly in pancreatic fibroblasts via STAT6 activation, whereas ...

DIE-RNA: A Reproducible Strategy for the Digestion of Normal and Injured Pancreas, Isolation of Pancreatic Cells from Genetically Engineered Mouse Models and Extraction of High Quality RNA

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
The isolation of ribonucleic acid (RNA) suitable for gene expression studies is challenging in the pancreas, due to its high ribonuclease activity. This is even more complicated during pancreatitis, a condition associated with inflammation and fibrosis ...

GOT1 Inhibition Induces Extracellular Matrix Remodeling in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using tumor tissue engineering, we recreated pancreatic cancer and found that inhibiting glutamic‐oxaloacetic transaminase 1 (GOT1) induces extracellular matrix remodeling and secretome rewiring, as well as promotes cell death. ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer cells rely on glutamine to sustain their survival in the stiff and poorly vascularized tumor ...

A human ribonuclease induces apoptosis associated with p21^WAF1/CIP1 induction and JNK inactivation

BMC Cancer, 2011
Background Ribonucleases are promising agents for use in anticancer therapy. Among the different ribonucleases described to be cytotoxic, a paradigmatic example is onconase which manifests cytotoxic and cytostatic effects, presents synergism with several

Calcium Channel Blockers Inhibit Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms Progression via Cav1.2‐Epigenetic Circuit

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study reveals a novel mechanism of a positive regulatory circuit between Cav1.2 and H3K27ac for pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) progression. Cav1.2 is identified as a crucial target for promoting disease progression and correlates with malignant behaviors, which are remarkably inhibited by the administration of calcium channel blockers (

CD3ɛ Nanobody‐Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Driving In Vivo Generation of BiTE‐Secreting CAR‐Ts for Solid Tumor Therapy With Memory Response and Minimal Immunogenicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
HEK‐293T‐derived CD3ε Nb‐engineered EVs to generate dual‐targeting CAR‐T cells directly in vivo. These EVs selectively deliver CAR.BiTE transgenes into T cells and reprogramed to HLA‐G/PD‐L1‐targeting effector cells with enhanced memory and persistence.

Gemcitabine exhibits a suppressive effect on pancreatic cancer cell growth by regulating processing of PVT1 to miR1207

Molecular Oncology, 2018
Gemcitabine serves as a first‐line chemotherapy agent for advanced pancreatic cancer (PC). However, the molecular basis by which gemcitabine exerts its effects is not well‐established, and the targeted genetic pathways remain unclear.

The first crystal structure of human RNase6 reveals a novel substrate binding and cleavage site arrangement [PDF]

, 2016
Human RNase 6 is a cationic secreted protein that belongs to the RNase A superfamily. Its expression is induced in neutrophils and monocytes upon bacterial infection, suggesting a role in host defence.
