    The FOXP3+ Pro-inflammatory T Cell: A Potential Therapeutic Target in Crohn’s Disease

    Scientists overlapped differentially expressed genes with publicly available microarray datasets and performed functional in vitro studies, including an in vitro suppression assay and organoid systems, to model gene expression changes observed in Crohn’s disease Tregs and to test predicted therapeutics.

    Abstract

    A Gut Microbiota-Bile Acid Axis Promotes Intestinal Homeostasis Upon Aspirin-Mediated Damage

    Mice supplemented with P. goldsteiniior its bile acid metabolite, 7-keto-lithocholic acid (7-keto-LCA), showed reduced aspirin-mediated damage of the intestinal niche and gut barrier, effects that were lost with a P. goldsteinii hdhA mutant unable to generate 7-keto-LCA.

    Gastric Cancer Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promote Tumor Glycolysis and Chemoresistance by Regulating B7H3 in Gastric Cancer Cells

    Glucose uptake and lactate production assays were used to evaluate the importance of B7H3 expression in gastric cancer mesenchymal stem cells-treated gastric cancer cells. The therapeutic efficacy of oxaliplatin and paclitaxel was determined using CCK-8 and colony formation assays.

    Antiproliferative and Antitelomerase Effects of Silymarin on Human Colorectal and Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells

    Scientists investigated the antiproliferative and antitelomerase effects of silymarin on four human colorectal cancer and HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. The cell viability and telomerase activity were assessed using MTT and the TRAP assay, respectively.
