ABSTRACT Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a fundamental, dynamic cellular process involved in embryonic development, metastasis, organ fibrosis, and tissue regeneration. To define the molecular landscape of secreted midbody remnants (MBRs) to the EMT process, a proteome analysis of MBRs released from Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells and

Participation of the urokinase receptor in neutrophil efferocytosis
AbstractThe urokinase receptor (uPAR) plays an important role in regulation of fibronolysis, cell migration, and adhesion. In this study, we examined whether uPAR plays a role in modulating efferocytosis of neutrophils. Macrophages from uPAR−/− mice demonstrated enhanced ability to engulf viable wild-type (WT) neutrophils in vitro and in vivo in the ...

Background Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) receptor (uPAR) is up-regulated at the invasive tumour front of human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), indicating a role for uPAR in tumour progression.

Role of Urokinase Receptor in Tumor Progression and Development
Elevated level of urokinase receptor (uPAR) is detected in various aggressive cancer types and is closely associated with poor prognosis of cancers. Binding of uPA to uPAR triggers the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin and the subsequent activation of

Advancing Extracellular Vesicle Research: A Review of Systems Biology and Multiomics Perspectives
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound vesicles secreted by various cell types into the extracellular space and play a role in intercellular communication. Their molecular cargo varies depending on the cell of origin and its functional state.

Urokinase–urokinase receptor interaction mediates an inhibitory signal for HIV-1 replication [PDF]
Elevated levels of soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) receptor, CD87/u-PAR, predict survival in individuals infected with HIV-1. Here, we report that pro-uPA (or uPA) inhibits HIV-1 expression in U937-derived chronically infected promonocytic U1 cells stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF ...

eVLP‐Mediated Cas9 Delivery for Preventing IBMIR in Islet Transplantation
Engineered virus‐like particles (eVLPs) are used to deliver Cas9 nuclease to knock out tissue factor (TF) and plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 (PAI‐1) genes in pancreatic islets. The edited islets maintained viability and function, while reducing instant blood‐mediated inflammatory reaction (IBMIR) markers and improving glycemic control in diabetic ...

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.

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