Green Cocoon-Derived Sericin Reduces Cellular Damage Caused by Radiation in Human Keratinocytes
[Scientific Reports] Researchers investigated the effects of green cocoon-derived sericin on human keratinocytes using lactate dehydrogenase activity to indicate damage reduction.

Collagen I Protects Human Keratinocytes HaCaT against UVB Injury via Restoring PINK1/Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy
[Archives Of Biochemistry And Biophysics] Cells grown on plates coated by molecular collagen I, but not fibrillar collagen I, acquired certain resistance against UVB damages, as shown by increased survival and reduced apoptosis.

ANKRD1 Is a Mesenchymal-Specific Driver of Cancer-Associated Fibroblast Activation Bridging Androgen Receptor Loss to AP-1 Activation
[Nature Communications] Investigators identified ANKRD1 as a mesenchymal-specific transcriptional coregulator under direct androgen receptor negative control in human dermal fibroblasts and a key driver of cancer-associated fibroblasts conversion, independent of cellular senescence.

Saracatinib Inhibits Necroptosis and Ameliorates Psoriatic Inflammation by Targeting MLKL
[Cell Death & Disease] In an imiquimod-induced psoriasis mouse model, saracatinib effectively blocked mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) phosphorylation and inflammatory responses in vivo.

Differential Histone Acetylation and Super-Enhancer Regulation Underlie Melanoma Cell Dedifferentiation
[JCI Insight] Scientists identified ITGA3 gene as marked by a super-enhancer element in the Epgn3 invasive cells. Silencing of ITGA3 enhanced invasiveness in both in vitro and in vivo systems suggesting it as a negative regulator of invasion.

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.
