Improvement of Skin Wound Healing by Giant Salamander Skin Mucus Gel Wrapped with Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells via Affecting Integrin Family Molecules

[Aging] Giant salamander skin mucus gel dressing wrapped with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was prepared and validated, and skin wound injury of rabbit and mouse models were established.

A Keratinocyte-Adipocyte Signaling Loop is Reprogrammed by Loss of BTG3 to Augment Skin Carcinogenesis

[Cell Death & Differentiation] Scientists demonstrated that BTG3 levels were downregulated in basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma compared to normal skin tissue, and Btg3 knockout in mice augmented the development of papilloma in a mouse model of skin carcinogenesis.

Identification and Characterization of a New Potent Inhibitor Targeting CtBP1/BARS in Melanoma Cells

[Journal Of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research] Researchers identified a potent and selective inhibitor of C-terminal-binding protein 1/brefeldin A ADP-ribosylation substrate (CtBP1/BARS) active in cellular and melanoma animal models.

TRIM58 Downregulation Maintains Stemness via MYH9-GRK3-YAP Axis Activation in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Stem Cells

[Cancer Gene Therapy] Investigators reported that TRIM58 was underexpressed in TNBC tissues and cells compared to adjacent mucosa tissue, and its downregulation was significantly associated with shorter survival.

Positive Feedback Regulation between Glycolysis and Histone Lactylation Drives Oncogenesis in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

[Molecular Cancer] The participation of histone lactylation in the growth and progression of PDAC was confirmed through inhibition of histone lactylation by glycolysis inhibitors or lactate dehydrogenase A knockdown both in vitro and in vivo.

Dr. Timothy Ryan Elected to National Academy of Sciences

[Weill Cornell Medicine] Dr. Timothy Ryan, professor of biochemistry in anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences, one of the highest honors a scientist can receive.

Midkine Promotes Renal Fibrosis by Stabilizing C/EBPβ to Facilitate Endothelial-Mesenchymal Transition

[Communications Biology] Investigators demonstrated Midkine mainly expressed by CD31 + ACTA2+ECs going through partial EndMT contributed greatly to myofibroblasts by spatial and single-cell transcriptomics.

Mechanical Properties, Collagen and Glycosaminoglycan Content of Equine Superficial Digital Flexor Tendons Are Not Affected by Training

[Journal Of Anatomy] Scientists investigated whether different training histories of horses would influence the synthesis of collagen and other matrix proteins and alter the mechanical properties of tendon.

Synergistic Effects of Matrix Biophysical Properties on Gastric Cancer Cell Behavior via Integrin-Mediated Cell-ECM Interactions

[Small] By combining collagen I and alginate, researchers designed an in vitro biomimetic hydrogel platform to independently modulate matrix stiffness and structure across a physiological stiffness spectrum while preserving consistent collagen concentration and fiber topography.

ARID1B Controls Transcriptional Programs of Axon Projection in an Organoid Model of the Human Corpus Callosum

[Cell Stem Cell] Researchers found that neurons expressing SATB2, a determinant of callosal projection neuron (CPN) identity, show impaired maturation in ARID1B+/− neural organoids.

Cerebral Organoids Display Dynamic Clonal Growth and Tunable Tissue Replenishment

[Nature Cell Biology] Investigators implemented whole-tissue lineage tracing by genomic DNA barcoding in 3D human cerebral organoids, to show that individual stem cell clones produced progeny on a vastly variable scale.

The Immunoglobulin Superfamily Ligand B7H6 Subjects T Cell Responses to NK Cell Surveillance

[Science Immunology] By screening for mediators of natural killer (NK) cell recognition on T cells, investigators identified the immunoglobulin superfamily ligand B7H6 to be highly expressed by activated T cells, including patient-infused CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells.
