TGFBI modulates tumour hypoxia and promotes breast cancer metastasis

Albert Santamaria Martinez

Breast cancer metastasis is a complex process that depends not only on intrinsic characteristics of metastatic stem cells, but also on the particular microenvironment that supports their growth and modulates the plasticity of the system. In search for micr ...

A LIGHTning Strike to the Metastatic Niche

Michele De Palma, Amaia Martinez Usatorre

Tumor-induced vascular alterations in distant organs have been linked to the spreading of cancer. In this issue of Cell Reports, He et al. (2019) show that targeting the cytokine LIGHT to the pulmonary vasculature prevents the establishment of lung metasta ...

FMRP and cancer treatment

Douglas Hanahan, Qiqun Zeng

The present invention provides compositions and methods for down-modulating the expression and/or the immuno-suppressive activity of i) the FMRP protein, ii) an mRNA encoding the FMRP protein, and/or iii) the FMR1 gene for the treatment and/or prevention o ...

Active biomaterials for mechanobiology

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Berna Ayse Özkale Edelmann

Active biomaterials offer novel approaches to study mechanotransduction in mammalian cells. These material systems probe cellular responses by dynamically modulating their resistance to endogenous forces or applying exogenous forces on cells in a temporall ...

The Tumor Microenvironment as a Driving Force of Breast Cancer Stem Cell Plasticity

Albert Santamaria Martinez

Simple Summary Breast cancer stem cells are a subset of transformed cells that sustain tumor growth and can metastasize to secondary organs. Since metastasis accounts for most cancer deaths, it is of paramount importance to understand the cellular and mole ...

Roles of Epigenetic Dysregulation in Cancer Progression and Metastasis

Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia

Nearly all the cells of an organism share the same DNA sequence or genome, and yet they show different phenotypes and carry out different functions. This diversity is made possible by a verity of molecular modifications acting on the DNA sequence that coll ...

Endothelial Calcineurin Signaling Restrains Metastatic Outgrowth by Regulating Bmp2

Mauro Delorenzi, Nadine Fournier, Sina Nassiri

Calcineurin/NFAT signaling is active in endothelial cells and is proposed to be an essential component of the tumor angiogenic response. Here, we investigated the role of endothelial calcineurin signaling in vivo in physiological and pathological angiogene ...

Tumour exosomal CEMIP protein promotes cancer cell colonization in brain metastasis

Etienne Meylan, Yan Liu

The development of effective therapies against brain metastasis is currently hindered by limitations in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving it. Here we define the contributions of tumour-secreted exosomes to brain metastatic colonization ...

Integrin-Mediated Macrophage Adhesion Promotes Lymphovascular Dissemination in Breast Cancer

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Sina Nassiri

Lymphatic vasculature is crucial for metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, cellular and molecular drivers controlling lymphovascular metastasis are poorly understood. We define a macrophage-dependent signaling cascade that facilitate ...

Enhanced MR Image Classification Using Hybrid Statistical and Wavelets Features

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin

Classification of brain tumor is one of the most vital tasks within medical image processing. Classification of images greatly depends on the features extracted from the image, and thus, feature extraction plays a great role in the correct classification o ...

Bioengineering human bone marrow models to elucidate the triggers of the stem cell niche

Queralt Vallmajó Martín

The bone marrow (BM) microenvironment, or niche, significantly affects behaviors of its resident stem cell populations. Disruptions in the BM niche contribute to a number of severe clinical pathologies. Discovery of novel therapeutic strategies for BM-rela ...
