Consequences of CRISPR‐Cas9‐Mediated Stromelysin‐1 Knockout in Pancreatic Islet Microvascular Endothelial Cells

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The integrity of the pancreatic islet microvasculature is critical for endocrine function, yet it is progressively compromised by glucotoxicity in diabetes. While matrix metalloproteinases are implicated, the role of stromelysin‐1 as a potential upstream driver of endothelial dysfunction remains poorly defined.

Prognostic Implications of Heterogeneity in Intra-tumoral Immune Composition for Recurrence in Early Stage Lung Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Background: Studies in the past have identified selected immune cells that associate with different clinical outcomes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Mechanically Tunable Bone Scaffolds: In Vivo Hardening of 3D‐Printed Calcium Phosphate/Polycaprolactone Inks

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 12, 9 February 2026.
A 3D bone scaffold with osteogenic properties and capable of hardening in vivo is developed. The scaffold is implanted in a ductile state, and a phase transformation of the ceramic induces the stiffening and strengthening of the scaffold in vivo. Abstract Calcium phosphate 3D printing has revolutionized customized bone grafting.

Inflammation and Cancer: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Chronic inflammation fuels tumorigenesis via “internal drivers” and “external attractions.” Targeting these core mechanisms with combined therapies/novel deliveries enables precise, potent anti‐inflammatory–antitumor treatment. ABSTRACT Inflammation is a core pathological factor regulating tumor initiation, progression, and therapeutic resistance, and ...

Iterative Modeling via Structural Diffusion (IMSD): Exploring Fold‐Switching Pathways in Metamorphic Proteins Using AlphaFold2‐Based Generative Diffusion Model UFConf

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 2, Page 633-648, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Metamorphic proteins (MPs) can fold into two or more distinct spatial structures. Increasing interest in MPs has spurred the search for computational tools to predict proteins fold‐switching potential and model their refolding pathways. Here we address this problem by using the recently reported generative diffusion predictor UFConf, based on ...

The herpesvirus 8 encoded chemokines vCCL2 (vMIP-II) and vCCL3 (vMIP-III) target the human but not the murine lymphotactin receptor

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2008
Background Large DNA-viruses such as herpesvirus and poxvirus encode proteins that target and exploit the chemokine system of their host. The Kaposi sarcoma- associated herpes virus (KSHV) encodes three chemokines.

Tumor Microenvironments in Malignant Ovarian Germ Cell Tumors: MHC Class I Loss and T‐Cell Exhaustion in Dysgerminoma

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 2, Page 566-575, February 2026.
Malignant ovarian germ cell tumor subtypes exhibit distinct tumor microenvironments. Dysgerminomas harbor abundant nonexhausted T cells, with progenitor exhausted T cells present in 60% of PD‐1–positive cases. However, MHC class I expression is lost across all analyzed subtypes, suggesting that restoring class I expression in dysgerminomas may enhance ...

Glucocorticoid Receptor Activation Reprograms NK Cells to Drive AREG‐Mediated Immunosuppression: A Pan‐Cancer Role for AREG

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
Natural killer cells, central to anti‐tumor defense, undergo unexpected reprogramming within the tumor microenvironment. Instead of producing IFN‐γ and TNF‐α, they elevate amphiregulin, a tumor‐promoting factor. This shift is linked to glucocorticoid receptor activity and prostaglandin signaling.

T Cell Exhaustion and Dendritic Cell‐Mediated Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLSs) Modulation Affect Response to Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Microsatellite Stable Rectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
Using multi‐omics analysis, this study demonstrates that immune characteristics of the tumor microenvironment, rather than mutational profiles, are more strongly correlated with treatment response. Specifically, early exhausted T cells and tertiary lymphoid structures regulation by LAMP3⁺ dendritic cells emerge as key predictors of favorable outcomes ...
