The regulation of type I collagen gene expression in stromal fibroblast by breast tumour cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 110-135).Recent studies have revealed that interactions between tumour cells and the surrounding stroma play an important role in facilitating tumour growth and invasion.

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Weft, Warp & Weave: The Intricate Tapestry of Calcium Channels Regulating T Lymphocyte Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Calcium (Ca2+) is a universal second messenger important for T lymphocyte homeostasis, activation, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. The events surrounding Ca2+ mobilization in lymphocytes are tightly regulated and involve the coordination of

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

STIM1 signaling modulates invasive phenotypic plasticity by regulating calpain-dependent cleavage of integrin-β4 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells

open access: yesCancer Cell International
Background Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1)-mediated Ca2+ signaling modulates the malignant features of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), a unique Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated human malignancy.

The identification of adenylyl cyclase modulators as potential receptors for 6-nitrodopamine in human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes and their relevance in heart inotropism

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
6-Nitrodopamine (6-ND) has potent positive chronotropic and inotropic effects. At a very low dose, i.e., 10 fM, it causes potentiation of the positive chronotropic effects induced by catecholamines in the rat atria, indicating a distinct mechanism of ...

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

A study on blocking store-operated Ca2+ entry in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells with xyloketals from marine fungi

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica, 2017
In this study, the effect of four xyloketals 1-4 on store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) was investigated in primary distal pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) isolated from mice.

Increased Activation of Stromal Interaction Molecule-1/Orai-1 in Aorta From Hypertensive Rats [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 2009
Disturbances in the regulation of cytosolic calcium (Ca 2+ ) concentration play a key role in the vascular dysfunction associated with arterial hypertension. Stromal interaction molecules (STIMs) and Orai proteins represent a novel mechanism to control store-operated Ca 2+ entry.
