Tumor-associated Endo180 requires stromal-derived LOX to promote metastatic prostate cancer cell migration on human ECM surfaces [PDF]

, 2015
The diverse composition and structure of extracellular matrix (ECM) interfaces encountered by tumor cells at secondary tissue sites can influence metastatic progression. Extensive in vitro and in vivo data has confirmed that metastasizing tumor cells can

Activatable smart contrast agents for photoacoustic imaging

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in smart activatable photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agents, which dynamically modulate their optical properties in response to external stimuli or microenvironmental cues. It discusses their molecular design, activation mechanisms, biomedical applications, and future prospects for clinically tailored use ...

A high‐throughput bone marrow 3D co‐culture system to study resistance to BCR signalling targeted agents in B‐NHL

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Bone marrow (BM) involvement in B‐cell non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (B‐NHL) is associated with poor prognosis, as the BM microenvironment provides a protective niche that promotes therapeutic resistance. We developed a simplified, automated and high‐throughput 3D BM co‐culture model that faithfully reproduces key tumour–stroma interactions.

Inhibition of Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Expression by Macelignan in Porphyromonas gingivalis Supernatant-Induced Human Oral Epithelial Cells

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2010
This study was to investigate the effect of macelignan on Porphyromonas gingivalis supernatant-induced uPA expression via regulating mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and activating protein-1 (AP-1) signaling pathways in human oral epithelial KB ...

The physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and signaling in the central nervous system

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Sphingolipids are vital components of cell membranes. Metabolic disruptions of sphingolipids, including ceramide and sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, are linked to neurological disorders. This article summarizes the classification, structure, and metabolic processes of sphingolipids, and the physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and

Urokinase-type Plasminogen Activator and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor Induction by Etoposide in a Glioblastoma Cell Strain

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2002
Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and its inhibitors (PAI) are elements of plasminogen activation system, a proteolytic system involved in many physiological and patological processes.

Are we hallucinating or can psychedelic drugs modulate the immune system to control inflammation?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Psychedelic drugs that activate 5‐HT2A receptors have been long used for cultural, medicinal and recreational purposes. Interest in psychedelics for treating psychiatric disorders has resurged recently and is well documented; less well recognised are their anti‐inflammatory properties. Growing evidence now demonstrates that psychedelics modulate immune

Non-Surgical Bleeding and Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) Syndrome after TURP Surgery: A Case Report and Literature Review

Pathophysiology
Patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) surgery can develop TURP syndrome and post-TURP bleeding. Post-TURP bleeding can be surgical, from arteries or venous sinuses, or non-surgical, due to coagulopathy preventing clot ...

Measuring the metastatic potential of cancer cells [PDF]

, 1993
Cancer cells must secrete proteolytic enzymes to invade adjacent tissues and migrate to a new metastatic site. Urokinase (uPA) is a key enzyme related to metastasis in cancers of the lung, colon, gastric, uterine, breast, brain, and malignant melanoma. A
