Molecular Regulation of Muscle Stem Cell Fate during Skeletal Muscle Regeneration and Aging

Muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are the primary source of myogenic progenitors during muscle repair and are essential for the long-term regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle. Following myofiber injury, MuSCs transition from a quiescent to an activated state, ...

Apelin-driven endothelial cell migration sustains intestinal progenitor cells and tumor growth

Mauro Delorenzi, Stefanie Siegert, Pascale Anderle Pedone, Nadine Fournier, Sina Nassiri, François Renevey, Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Simone Ragusa

Stem and progenitor cells residing in the intestinal crypts drive the majority of colorectal cancers (CRCs), yet vascular contribution to this niche remains largely unexplored. Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) is a key driver of physiological a ...

Transposon-activated POU5F1B promotes colorectal cancer growth and metastasis

Didier Trono, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Julien Léonard Duc, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Alexandre Coudray, Sagane Dind, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Laia Simo Riudalbas

The treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) is an unmet medical need in absence of early diagnosis. Here, upon characterizing cancer-specific transposable element-driven transpochimeric gene transcripts (TcGTs) produced by this tumor in the SYSCOL cohort, we ...

Enantio- and diastereoselective construction of vicinal C(sp(3)) centres via nickel-catalysed hydroalkylation of alkenes

Xile Hu, Srikrishna Bera, Chao Fan

In drug discovery, the proportion of aliphatic carbons (C(sp(3))) and the presence of chiral carbons in organic molecules are positively correlated to their chance of clinical success. Although methods exist for the synthesis of chiral C(sp(3))-rich molecu ...

Metabolic and transcriptomic profiles of glioblastoma invasion revealed by comparisons between patients and corresponding orthotopic xenografts in mice

Lijing Xin, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Mario Gaetano Lepore, Marta Lai

The invasive behavior of glioblastoma, the most aggressive primary brain tumor, is considered highly relevant for tumor recurrence. However, the invasion zone is difficult to visualize by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and is protected by the blood brain ...
