Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Commentary: benefits and challenges of cellularized scaffolds for treatment of volumetric muscle loss [PDF]

Biofunctional Materials
Bulk local tissue loss may be amenable to scaffold based therapies. Discrete areas can usually be filled in with composite scaffolds, which can then conform and integrate to host tissue.

Collagen-hyaluronic acid scaffolds for adipose tissue engineering. [PDF]

, 2010
Three-dimensional (3-D) in vitro models of the mammary gland require a scaffold matrix that supports the development of adipose stroma within a robust freely permeable matrix. 3-D porous collagen-hyaluronic acid (HA: 7.5% and 15%) scaffolds were produced

Nanofiber Structured Polymeric Tissue Scaffolds

Tekstil ve Mühendis, 2014
Tissue scaffolds are 3D, porous, biodegradable, and biocompatible materials which have an appropriate mechanical strength. Tissue scaffolds enable attachment, proliferation, and differentiation of seeded cultured cells on them. These cells form a tissue by connecting to each other. Electrospinning is one of the most preferred methods in nanospun tissue

RIPK4 function interferes with melanoma cell adhesion and metastasis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RIPK4 promotes melanoma growth and spread. RIPK4 levels increase as skin lesions progress to melanoma. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of RIPK4 causes melanoma cells to form less compact spheroids, reduces their migratory and invasive abilities and limits tumour growth and dissemination in mouse models.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.
