|
| The authors studied the impact of chemotherapy on Lgr5-expressing and MSI1-expressing cell populations and explored the effect of increased MSI1 levels in response to treatment. [Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Quantitative real-time PCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry were utilized to detect the expression profiles and prognostic significance of SPHK2 in gastric cancer. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| The roles of circFAM73A in gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration, cisplatin resistance, and CSC-like properties were determined by a series of functional experiments both in vitro and in vivo. [Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| By using ex vivo 3D organoid cultures and molecular approaches we observed early responses to T3 involving the T3-metabolizing enzyme Dio1 and the transporter Mct10, accompanied by a complex response of stem cell- and progenitor-enriched genes. [Development] |
|
|
|
| CRISPR-Cas9 and shRNA were used to eliminate TFAP2A expression in HCT116 and a panel of colon cancer cell lines. [Molecular Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| In vitro colon organoid culture was utilized to assess junction-related gene expression by qPCR and trans-epithelial resistance. In silico analyses of human inflammatory bowel disease and colon cancer databases were performed. [American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology] |
|
|
|
| Colonoid and enteroid gene expression signatures were more similar to those found for the tissues of their origin than to each other. [American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated whether luteolin exhibited its anticancer effects by induction of apoptosis and autophagy in a p53-dependent manner in colon cancer cells. [Nutrition and Cancer-An International Journal] |

|
|
|
| Neoadjuvant therapy is becoming the standard of care for an increasing number of tumor types. Currently, colon cancer patients are still routinely treated with up-front surgery, and neoadjuvant systemic therapy is not yet standard. [Cancer Management and Research] |

|
| Four female and six male researchers are to receive the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Prize this year, the top award for early career investigators in Germany. The prizes are each worth €20,000 and will be presented at an award ceremony on 4 May that is to be held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic. [DFG (EurekAlert!)] |
