Dual targeting of RET and SRC synergizes in RET fusion‐positive cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Despite the strong activity of selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance of RET fusion‐positive (RET+) lung cancer and thyroid cancer frequently occurs and is mainly driven by RET‐independent bypass mechanisms. Son et al. show that SRC TKIs significantly inhibit PAK and AKT survival signaling and enhance the efficacy of RET TKIs in ...

Uric acid and ammonia play synergistic roles in the loss of blood-brain barrier integrity in the context of hepatic encephalopathy

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS
Background The blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintains brain homeostasis by regulating molecular entry. Its endothelial cells are joined by tight junction proteins and express few apical transporters.

Detection of circulating tumor DNA in colorectal cancer patients using a methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed a cost‐effective methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex assay containing tissue‐conserved and tumor‐specific methylation markers. The assay can detect circulating tumor DNA with high accuracy in patients with localized and metastatic colorectal cancer.

The mechanobiology of tight junctions [PDF]

Biophysical Reviews, 2019
Tight junctions (TJ) play a central role in the homeostasis of epithelial and endothelial tissues, by providing a semipermeable barrier to ions and solutes, by contributing to the maintenance of cell polarity, and by functioning as signaling platforms.

Perspectives in educating molecular pathologists on liquid biopsy: Toward integrative, equitable, and decentralized precision oncology

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Liquid biopsy enables minimally invasive, real‐time molecular profiling through analysis of circulating biomarkers in biological fluids. This Perspective highlights the importance of training pathologists through integrative educational programs, such as the European Masters in Molecular Pathology, to ensure effective and equitable implementation of ...

Molecular Dissection of Tight Junctions.

Cell Structure and Function, 1996
In epithelial and endothelial cells, the tight junction (TJ) seals cells to create a primary barrier to the diffusion of solutes across the cell sheet, and it also works as a boundary between the apical and basolateral membrane domains to create their polarization.

Externally controlled high degree of spin polarization and spin inversion in a conducting junction: Two new approaches

, 2017
We propose two new approaches for regulating spin polarization and spin inversion in a conducting junction within a tight-binding framework based on wave-guide theory.

Cell surface interactome analysis identifies TSPAN4 as a negative regulator of PD‐L1 in melanoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Using cell surface proximity biotinylation, we identified tetraspanin TSPAN4 within the PD‐L1 interactome of melanoma cells. TSPAN4 negatively regulates PD‐L1 expression and lateral mobility by limiting its interaction with CMTM6 and promoting PD‐L1 degradation.
