USP45 Represses Melanoma Development by Deubiquitinating and Stabilizing Tumor Suppressor MRGPRF

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
USP45 acts as a melanoma suppressor by stabilizing MRGPRF, which weakens the PI3K/AKT pathway, suppresses tumor growth, and reduces melanoma cell migration and invasion. Abstract Melanoma, a highly malignant skin cancer, has seen a rising incidence and death toll. MRGPRF is a novel melanoma suppressor that inhibits the PI3K/AKT pathway.

Shear stress induces endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition via the transcription factor Snail

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Blood flow influences atherosclerosis by generating wall shear stress, which alters endothelial cell (EC) physiology. Low shear stress induces dedifferentiation of EC through a process termed endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT).

Effects of water temperature on summer periphyton biomass in shallow lakes: a pan-European mesocosm experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Periphyton communities play an important role in shallow lakes and are controlled by direct forces such as temperature, light, nutrients, and invertebrate grazing, but also indirectly by planktivorous fish predation.

NamiRNA‐Enhancer Network: The Changing Era Challenge and Chance of miRNA

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MiRNAs (miRNAs) regulate diverse biological processes across species. Unlike canonical miRNA‐mediated gene repression, Nuclear Activating miRNAs (NamiRNAs) can efficiently upregulate gene expression by targeting enhancers. This review systematically summarizes recent advances in NamiRNA research, elucidates the theory of NamiRNA‐Enhancer‐mediated Gene ...

Effects of Ingestion of Lithic Particles on Growth of the Apple Snail Pomacea canaliculata (Caenogastropoda, Ampullariidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lithic particles are a common feature in the digestive tract of freshwater snails. Their role in the digestive processes has been demonstrated in some microphytophagous and detritivorous species, as they enhance growth, assimilation and reproduction.

An LCN2‐Dependent Positive‐Feedback Loop Between Gastric Cancer Cells and Tumor‐Associated‐Macrophages Mediates Lymphangiogenesis and Lymphatic Metastasis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, the expression and function of LCN2 in GC is aimed to investigate and elucidate the mechanisms by which the LCN2‐dependent positive‐feedback loop between GC cells and TAMs drives lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis. These findings suggest that LCN2 may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in GC ...

Hologenomics Reveals Specialized Dietary Adaptations in the Mengla Snail‐Eating Snake

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dietary adaptation studies from a holobiome perspective are scarce beyond mammals. This research reveals how genomic and microbial interactions drive dietary specialization in the Mengla snail‐eating snake, with evidence of gut symbiont convergence between reptiles and mammals.

HelixComplex snail mucus exhibits pro-survival, proliferative and pro-migration effects on mammalian fibroblasts

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Snail mucus is a mixture of active substances commonly thought to have healthy properties for the treatment of skin disorders. Although snail mucus is an ingredient of several cosmetic and para-pharmaceutic products, a comprehensive characterization of ...

Modelling environmentally-mediated infectious diseases of humans: transmission dynamics of schistosomiasis in China. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Macroparasites of humans are sensitive to a variety of environmental variables, including temperature, rainfall and hydrology, yet current comprehension of these relationships is limited.
