    Mucus Sialylation Determines Intestinal Host-Commensal Homeostasis

    Investigators showed that terminal sialylation of glycans on intestinal mucus by alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 was essential for mucus integrity and protected against excessive bacterial proteolytic degradation.

    Lepr+ Mesenchymal Cells Sense Diet to Modulate Intestinal Stem/Progenitor Cells via Leptin–Igf1 Axis

    The authors demonstrated that Lepr+ mesenchymal cells surrounding intestinal crypts sensed diet change and provided a novel niche signal to maintain intestinal stem cell and progenitor cell proliferation.

    Niclosamide Induces miR-148a to Inhibit PXR and Sensitize Colon Cancer Stem Cells to Chemotherapy

    Researchers identified miR-148a as a targetable element upstream of pregnane X receptor (PXR) signaling in cancer stem cells, which when over-expressed decreased PXR expression and impaired tumor relapse after chemotherapy in mouse tumor xenografts.

    Abstract

    OSI-027 Inhibits the Tumorigenesis of Colon Cancer Through Mediation of C-Myc/FOXO3a/PUMA Axis

    OSI-027 dose-dependently reduced colon cancer cell viability through inducing the cell apoptosis and induced the apoptosis of colon cancer cells via upregulation of p53-upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA).
