CCL5 and GLUT1 define leader cells in collective invasion of colorectal cancer
Abstract Invasion and metastasis in multiple solid tumors are promoted by collective invasion which is organized by leader and follower cells. Yet in colorectal cancer (CRC), biomarkers and mechanisms that specify leader cells remain undefined. Here we identify biomarkers of leader cells and elucidate how they drive CRC collective invasion and ...

Abstract The progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) is critically regulated by cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) within the tumor microenvironment (TME), yet the specific molecular mechanisms by which CAFs influence CRC remain unclear. This study reveals the mechanism by which CAFs promote CRC malignant progression and immune suppression through ...

Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) and genetic deletion of Mafb lead to tubular epithelial dedifferentiation, characterized by decreased E‐cadherin and increased α‐SMA and vimentin expression. Intravenous administration of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell‐derived exosomes (HucMSC‐Exos) partially restores Mafb expression in UUO kidneys ...

MSC‐Exo derived from human umbilical cord (HucMSC‐Exo) downregulates INHBA expression, consequently modulating the PI3K/AKT signaling cascade. This regulation attenuates renal fibroblast activation and extracellular matrix deposition, thereby exerting a renoprotective effect against fibrosis.

MicroRNA‐130a‐3p targets and inhibits MAFB expression, leading to the development of hypospadimas. MicroRNA‐130a‐3p inhibits the expression of MAFB, disrupts the normal processes of cell proliferation, migration, cell apoptosis, and cycle progression, and ultimately leads to the development of hypospadias.
