circCDK13-Loaded Small Extracellular Vesicles Accelerate Healing in Preclinical Diabetic Wound Models
[Nature Communications] Scientists demonstrated that circCDK13 could stimulate the proliferation and migration of human dermal fibroblasts and human epidermal keratinocytes by interacting with insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 3 in an N6-Methyladenosine-dependent manner to enhance CD44 and c-MYC expression.
Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling, Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Crosslink Signaling in Colorectal Cancer Cells
[Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy] The authors summarize recent molecular studies on the role of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling axis in regulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in colorectal cancer cells, which triggers metastatic pathogenesis.
