Semaphorin 3C (Sema3C) reshapes stromal microenvironment to promote hepatocellular carcinoma progression [PDF]
More than 90% of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases develop in the presence of fibrosis or cirrhosis, making the tumor microenvironment (TME) of HCC distinctive due to the intricate interplay between cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and cancer stem

Sema3C promotes hepatic metastasis and predicts poor prognosis in gastric adenocarcinoma
Objective Semaphorin 3C (Sema3C) may regulate tumor metastasis and prognosis. We determined the biological roles of Sema3C in the hepatic metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma and evaluated its clinical significance as a potential biomarker.

A Sema3C Mutant Resistant to Cleavage by Furin (FR-Sema3C) Inhibits Choroidal Neovascularization [PDF]
In age-related macular degeneration (AMD), abnormal sub retinal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a major cause of blindness. FR-sema3C is a point mutated form of semaphorin-3C that is resistant to cleavage by furin like pro-protein convertases (FPPC)

Decoding the Cellular Heterogeneity and Malignant Progression of Human Penile Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing [PDF]
Penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is a rare genitourinary malignancy, and factors of its tumor microenvironment (TME) could serve as prognostic indicators for tumor recurrence and metastasis. Here, we generated a comprehensive single‐cell map of PSCC
