The Role of Feedback Loops in Targeted Therapy for Pancreatic Cancer

[Frontiers in Oncology] Scientists review researches on the role of feedback loops in the progression of pancreatic cancer, and summarize the connection between feedback loops and several signaling pathways in pancreatic cancer, as well as recent advances in the intervention of feedback loops in pancreatic cancer treatment.

BC Researchers Launching Clinical Trial for First Genetically Engineered Stem Cell-Based Therapy for Type 1 Diabetes

[University of British Columbia] Researchers from the UBC Faculty of Medicine and Vancouver Coastal Health have received $1 million from Canada’s Stem Cell Network to conduct research and a clinical trial for one of the world’s first genetically engineered cell replacement therapies for type 1 diabetes.

NexImmune, Yale, and JDRF Enter into Research Partnership for Type 1 Diabetes

[NexImmune, Inc.] NexImmune, Inc., Yale and JDRF have begun a two-year project to explore the use of NexImmune’s AIM nanoparticles in combination with an anti-CD3 mAb to tolerize, deplete or modulate diabetes antigen-specific T cells.

A PSMA-Targeted Tri-Specific Killer Engager Enhances NK Cell Cytotoxicity Against Prostate Cancer

[Cancer Immunology Research] Scientists reported that the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) Tri-specific Killer Engager specifically bound to PSMA-expressing cells and significantly enhanced expansion, degranulation, and cytokine production of NK cells derived from healthy donors or prostate cancer patients.

Osteoblast-Derived ECM1 Promotes Anti-Androgen Resistance in Bone Metastatic Prostate Cancer

[Advanced Science] Researchers demonstrated that under enzalutamide treatment, osteoblasts in the bone microenvironment secrete increased levels of extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM1), which affected surrounding prostate cancer cells, promoting tumor cell proliferation and anti-androgen resistance.

Rapid Modulation of Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons and Dopamine Release by Satellite Astrocytes

[Nature Communications] Scientists discovered that striatal astrocytes occupied a cell type-specific anatomical and functional relationship with cholinergic interneurons (ChIs), through which they rapidly excited ChIs and governed dopamine release via nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on subsecond timescales.
