Whole-genome sequencing of glioblastoma reveals enrichment of non-coding constraint mutations in known and novel genes

Genome Biology, 2020
Background Glioblastoma (GBM) has one of the worst 5-year survival rates of all cancers. While genomic studies of the disease have been performed, alterations in the non-coding regulatory regions of GBM have largely remained unexplored.

A PKC-dependent recruitment of MMP-2 controls semaphorin-3A growth-promoting effect in cortical dendrites. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
There is increasing evidence for a crucial role of proteases and metalloproteinases during axon growth and guidance. In this context, we recently described a functional link between the chemoattractive Sema3C and Matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3).

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Semaphorin 3C and Its Receptors in Cancer and Cancer Stem-Like Cells

Biomedicines, 2018
Neurodevelopmental programs are frequently dysregulated in cancer. Semaphorins are a large family of guidance cues that direct neuronal network formation and are also implicated in cancer. Semaphorins have two kinds of receptors, neuropilins and plexins.

TNFSF14/LIGHT responses in intestinal and oesophageal fibroblasts are differentially modulated by hydroxylase inhibitors

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend LIGHT is a mutual mediator of intestinal and oesophageal fibroblast inflammation with common as well as tissue‐specific effects. Hydroxylase inhibitors can selectively suppress inflammatory factors in both cell types, albeit targeting different signalling pathways.

The evolving landscape of the Warburg effect in gastric cancer: From molecular mechanisms to targeted therapy

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hypoxia, oncogenic signaling, transcriptional and epigenetic remodeling, and H. pylori–microbiota interactions drive the Warburg effect in gastric cancer. Enhanced glycolysis and lactate export support biosynthesis, remodel the tumor microenvironment, promote stromal activation and immune suppression, and reveal actionable biomarkers and therapeutic ...

Neural crest–derived SEMA3C activates endothelial NRP1 for cardiac outflow tract septation [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2015
In mammals, the outflow tract (OFT) of the developing heart septates into the base of the pulmonary artery and aorta to guide deoxygenated right ventricular blood into the lungs and oxygenated left ventricular blood into the systemic circulation. Accordingly, defective OFT septation is a life-threatening condition that can occur in both syndromic and ...

Lymphatic Endothelial Cells in Health and Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) are dynamic regulators of tissue homeostasis and disease remodeling. In the healthy state, LECs coordinate interstitial fluid drainage, intestinal lipid transport, and immune trafficking and tolerance. Across disease settings, however, these same programs become maladaptively reprogrammed, contributing to barrier ...

Optic nerve sheath meningioma exhibits neural niche‐associated transcriptomic features and rare copy number variation‐linked evolution

Brain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
Optic nerve sheath meningiomas are typically NF2‐intact with few copy number alterations and are generally clinically indolent. Rare aggressive recurrences are associated with progressive accumulation of copy number variations, including CDKN2A/B homozygous deletion, 1q gain, and 14q loss.

Tri-methylation of H3K79 is decreased in TGF-β1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in lung cancer

Clinical Epigenetics, 2017
Background The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) enables epithelial cancer cells to acquire mesenchymal features and contributes to metastasis and resistance to treatment. This process involves epigenetic reprogramming for gene expression.
