The Citrullinating Enzyme PADI4 Governs Progenitor Cell Proliferation and Translation in Developing Hair Follicles

[Science Advances] Researchers exploited the stereotyped hair follicle development to delineate the function of PADI4, an enzyme converting peptidylarginine to citrulline.

Selective Autophagy: A Potential Player in Cutaneous Wound Healing

[Advances in Wound Care] Understanding the basic mechanisms and intricate crosstalk underlying selective autophagy may facilitate the development of comprehensive strategies and therapeutic targets for wound healing.

Disrupted Cholesterol Biosynthesis and Hair Follicle Stem Cell Impairment in the Onset of Alopecia

[PloS One] Researchers explored the regulatory function of disrupted cholesterol homeostasis in the functioning of hair follicle stem cells and the cycling of hair follicles.

BDH2-Driven Lysosome-to-Mitochondria Iron Transfer Shapes Ferroptosis Vulnerability of the Melanoma Cell States

[Nature Metabolism] The authors show that BDH2 is a key effector of inter-organelle Fe(II) redistribution and ferroptosis vulnerability during melanoma transition from a melanocytic to a mesenchymal-like phenotype.

Influence of Viscosity on Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Trilineage Differentiation during 3D Culture

[Biofabrication] Researchers explored the influence of viscosity on trilineage differentiation of human bone marrow-derived MSCs (hMSCs) was disclosed by three-dimensionally culturing hMSCs in viscous media.

Comparative Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Analysis of 2D and 3D Mesenchymal Stem Cell Cultures for Improved Therapeutic Applications

[British Journal of Pharmacology] The authors reveal that MSCs in 3D spheroids exhibit reduced proliferation, enhanced stemness, and distinct metabolic adaptations, including increased glycolysis and altered nutrient metabolism.

Peritumoral Macrophages Recruit Eosinophils to Promote Antitumor Immune Responses in Breast Cancer

[Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America] High-dimensional immunostaining of murine mammary tumor progression revealed that mammary tissue macrophages were localized in the peritumoral stroma and associated with eosinophils, which were previously shown to facilitate antitumor T cell responses.

Dual Targeting OX40 and IL-2 Receptor Enhances Antitumor Activity through Tumor-Infiltrating Treg Depletion and CD8 T-Cell Proliferation

[Journal for Immunotherapy of Cancer] Mouse tumor models were used to assess the antitumor efficacy of aOX40-mIL2-Fc by tumor growth and survival, and toxicity by body weight loss, inflammatory cytokine production, and natural killer cell proliferation in the blood.

Long Non-Coding RNAs and Signaling Networks in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Mechanistic Insights into Tumor Pathogenesis

[Cancer Gene Therapy] Scientists synthesize contemporary findings on the molecular mechanisms by which lncRNAs influence major oncogenic cascades in NSCLC.

Helmholtz Munich and Parse Biosciences GigaLab Generate World’s Largest Human Lung Tissue Perturbation Atlas

[Parse Biosciences] Helmholtz Munich and Parse Biosciences announced a strategic partnership to generate the world’s broadest lung disease perturbation atlas, powered by Parse Biosciences’ GigaLab platform.

Phenylboronic Acid-Modified Copper Nanozymes as Nanoscavengers of Bacterial Polysaccharides Causing Acute Lung Injury

[Advanced Science] Investigators developed 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (MPBA)-modified copper nanozymes (CuMPBA) to simultaneously combat bacterial infections and toxin-triggered immune overactivation.

Sorted-Cell Proteomics Reveals an AT1-Associated Epithelial Cornification Phenotype and Suggests Endothelial Redox Imbalance in Human Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

[American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology] Researchers sorted epithelial and endothelial cell populations based on their differential surface markers from normal and bronchopulmonary dysplasia human lungs.
