Metformin Decreases the Incidence of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Promoted by Diet-induced Obesity in the Conditional KrasG12D Mouse Model. [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a particularly deadly disease. Chronic conditions, including obesity and type-2 diabetes are risk factors, thus making PDAC amenable to preventive strategies.

Tumor metastasis results from complex interactions between cancer cells and mechanical microenvironments. We propose a “nucleus‐centered, cross‐stage mechanical signal decoding” model, highlighting how nuclear mechanosensors interpret forces at different stages.

This narrative review discusses animal models of exosome‐based myocardial infarction treatments. Emerging techniques aim to improve exosome stability, targeting, and bioavailability for MI treatment as drug delivery vehicles and regenerative mediators that promote myocardial regeneration. Abstract Exosomes have emerged as promising therapeutic carriers,

FOXC2 and fluid shear stress stabilize postnatal lymphatic vasculature. [PDF]
Biomechanical forces, such as fluid shear stress, govern multiple aspects of endothelial cell biology. In blood vessels, disturbed flow is associated with vascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, and promotes endothelial cell proliferation and ...

USP24 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma progression by deubiquitinating and stabilizing YAP1
Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) plays a pivotal role in promoting the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Emerging evidence shows that inducing YAP1 degradation represents a promising strategy.

Using a 3D cell culture model of the fibrotic barrier in pancreatic cancer, this work shows that inhibiting NUAK2 kinase in pancreatic stellate cells enhances macromolecular drug delivery. Mechanistically, NUAK2 inhibition disrupted actin stress fiber assembly to downregulate collagen I expression, thus enhancing macromolecular permeability.

Dose-dependent protective and inductive effects of xanthohumol on oxidative DNA damage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
The effect of xanthohumol, a prenylflavonoid isolated from the hop plant (Humulus lupulus L.), on Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA oxidative damage and viability was evaluated. Yeast cultures under oxidative stress, induced by H2O2, displayed stronger growth

Aging-dependent YAP1 reduction contributes to AD pathology by upregulating the Nr4a1-AKT/GSK-3β axis
Background Aging is the greatest risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD), which accounts for > 95% of all Alzheimer’s disease (AD) cases. Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1), an aging-dependent protein, is a key element in the classical Hippo ...
