|
|
| Scientists identified miR-190 as a candidate regulator that could effectively restore insulin expression in NIT-1 cells under high-glucose stimulation. [Peerj] |
|
|
|
| Investigators reported that cerulein increased phospho‑specific forms of JAK2 and STAT3, and mRNA and protein expression of IL‑6, but decreased cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) levels in AR42J cells. [Molecular Medicine Reports] |
| |
|
|
| Scientists reported that increased proliferation of FGFR4-depleted PDAC cells correlated with hyperactivation of the mTORC1 pathway both in vitro and in vivo. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Using gene knockout and pharmacological inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) by THZ1, the authors reported cell cycle arrest, apoptosis induction, and DNA damage through the STAT3-MCL1-CHK1 axis. [Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| A 3D model representing human pancreas/duct carcinoma and human lung adenocarcinoma was designed and applied as a clear proof of the remarkable therapeutic potential of a new coordination polymer n·3nH2O. [Journal of Medicinal Chemistry] |
|
|
|
| Using in vivo and in vitro experiments, the authors demonstrated that abnormal expression of (CUGBP) Elav-like family member 2 (CELF2) affected the stemness, apoptosis, and proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells. [Cell and Bioscience] |
|
|
|
| Using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis analysis on the differentially expressed genes, researchers determined that EIF2 signaling was the core pathway regulating the development of PDAC. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators demonstrated that pipernonaline, one of the components of the spice pepper, preferentially reduced the survival of human pancreatic cancer PANC-1 cells under nutrient-deprived conditions. [Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry] |
| |
|
|
|
| The authors overview the status of the field of human islet research, highlight the challenges and propose actions that could accelerate research progress and increase understanding of type 2 diabetes to slow its pandemic spreading. [Nature Metabolism] |
