The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

IRE1α‐XBP1s axis regulates SREBP1‐dependent MRP1 expression to promote chemoresistance in non‐small cell lung cancer cells

Thoracic Cancer
Background Inositol‐requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐resident transmembrane protein that senses ER stress and mediates an essential arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR).

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Treatment with oncolytic vaccinia virus infects tumor-infiltrating regulatory and exhausted T cells

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer
Background Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are an attractive way to increase immune infiltration into an otherwise cold tumor. While OVs are engineered to selectively infect tumor cells, there is evidence that they can infect other non-malignant cells in the ...

Emergent Properties of Tumor Microenvironment in a Real-life Model of Multicell Tumor Spheroids [PDF]

, 2010
Multicellular tumor spheroids are an important {\it in vitro} model of the pre-vascular phase of solid tumors, for sizes well below the diagnostic limit: therefore a biophysical model of spheroids has the ability to shed light on the internal workings and organization of tumors at a critical phase of their development.

Complex Far-Field Geometries Determine the Stability of Solid Tumor Growth with Chemotaxis [PDF]

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology volume 82, Article number: 39 (2020), 2019
In this paper, we develop a sharp interface tumor growth model to study the effect of the tumor microenvironment using a complex far-field geometry that mimics a heterogeneous distribution of vasculature. Together with different nutrient uptake rates inside and outside the tumor, this introduces variability in spatial diffusion gradients.

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Identification of multiple organ metastasis-associated hub mRNA/miRNA signatures in non-small cell lung cancer

Cell Death and Disease, 2023
Metastasis remains major cause of treatment failure in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A comprehensive characterization of the transcriptomic landscape of NSCLC-cells with organ-specific metastatic potentials would advance our understanding of NSCLC ...

Blood Vessel Tortuosity Selects against Evolution of Agressive Tumor Cells in Confined Tissue Environments: a Modeling Approach [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology 2017, 13(7): e1005635, 2017
Cancer is a disease of cellular regulation, often initiated by genetic mutation within cells, and leading to a heterogeneous cell population within tissues. In the competition for nutrients and growth space within the tumors the phenotype of each cell determines its success. Selection in this process is imposed by both the microenvironment (neighboring
