    Targeting P2Y14R Protects against Necroptosis of Intestinal Epithelial Cells through PKA/CREB/RIPK1 Axis in Ulcerative Colitis

    Based on the over-expression of P2Y14R in the intestinal epithelium of mice with experimental colitis, investigators reported that male mice lacking P2Y14R in intestinal epithelial cells exhibited less intestinal injury induced by dextran sulfate sodium.

    Identifying Regulators of Aberrant Stem Cell and Differentiation Activity in Colorectal Cancer Using a Dual Endogenous Reporter System

    Researchers engineered a dual endogenous reporter system by genome-editing the SOX9 and KRT20 loci of human colorectal cancer cell lines to express fluorescent reporters, broadcasting aberrant stem cell-like and differentiation activity, respectively.

    Inhibition of the AURKA/YAP1 Axis Is a Promising Therapeutic Option for Overcoming Cetuximab Resistance in Colorectal Cancer Stem Cells

    The authors used transcriptomic analysis along with in vitro and in vivo models of RAS/RAF wild-type colorectal cancer to study YAP1 Ser397 phosphorylation as a potential biomarker for cetuximab resistance.
