Cancer-associated fibroblasts enhance colorectal cancer lymphatic metastasis via CLEC11A/LGR5-mediated WNT pathway activation.

The Journal of clinical investigation
Hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment promotes lymphatic metastasis, yet the role of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in this process remains insufficiently elucidated in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we developed a large language model...

The pericardium forms as a distinct structure during heart formation.

Nature communications
The heart is formed from diverse cell lineages that assemble into a functional unit, including the pericardium, a mesothelial sac that supports movement, homeostasis, and immune responses. However, its developmental origins remain unresolved. Here, w...

Potential role of TNFRSF12A in linking glioblastoma and alzheimer's disease via shared tumour suppressor pathways.

Scientific reports
Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are critical regulators of cellular homeostasis and are extensively studied in cancer biology. However, their roles in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease (AD), remain poorly understood. Recent e...

WISP2/CCN5 revealed as a potential diagnostic biomarker for endometriosis based on machine learning and single-cell transcriptomic analysis.

Functional & integrative genomics
OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological disease characterized by the ectopic growth of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, affecting millions of women worldwide. Currently, the definitive diagnosis relies on invasi...

Isolation and characterization of a bioactive compound from Sphingomonas sanguinis DM with cytotoxic and molecular docking analysis.

Scientific reports
Datura metel, a common plant in the Solanaceae family, is known for its valuable medicinal properties. The metabolites created by its rhizosphere bacterium, Sphingomonas sanguinis DM, have garnered interest for their potential biological effects. Thi...

Personalised Medicine for Colorectal Cancer Using Mechanism-Based Machine Learning Models.

International journal of molecular sciences
Gaining insight into the mechanisms of signal transduction networks (STNs) by using critical features from patient-specific mathematical models can improve patient stratification and help to identify potential drug targets. To achieve this, these mod...

Platelet-rich plasma inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling in rabbit cartilage cells activated by IL-1β.

International immunopharmacology
OBJECTIVE: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been reported to alleviate degenerative pathological damage to joint cartilage. This study aimed to investigate the effect of PRP on Wnt/β-catenin signaling in rabbit chondrocytes.

Serum Dickkopf-1 levels as a clinical and prognostic factor in patients with bladder cancer.

Genetics and molecular research : GMR
Dickkopf-1 (DKK-1) is a secreted protein that inhibits Wnt signaling. However, the clinical significance and prognostic value of serum DKK-1 levels have not been previously investigated in bladder cancer in Chinese patients. Blood samples were taken ...

Mathematical Modeling Quantifies "Just-Right" APC Inactivation for Colorectal Cancer Initiation.

Cancer research
UNLABELLED: Dysregulation of the tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is a canonical step in colorectal cancer development by promoting activation of the WNT/β-catenin pathway. Curiously, most colorectal tumors carry biallelic mutat...

A multi-faceted discovery strategy identifies functional antibodies binding to cysteine-rich domain 1 of hDKK1 for cancer immunotherapy via Wnt non-canonical pathway.

Oncogene
Wnt signaling is important in embryonic development and tumorigenesis. These biological effects can be exerted by the activation of the β-catenin-dependent canonical pathway or the β-catenin-independent non-canonical pathway. DKK1 is a potent inhibit...
