The Regulatory Role of Cancer Stem Cell Marker Gene CXCR4 in the Growth and Metastasis of Gastric Cancer
Scientists revealed the molecular mechanism of the CSCs marker gene C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) in gastric cancer growth and metastasis through scRNA-seq combined with bulk RNA-seq.
[Cell Metabolism] Using exercise and sarcopenia models, mice lacking IL6Rα on T cells demonstrated deficits in regulatory T cells, their functional maturation, and a more pronounced decline in muscle mass.
[Communications Biology] Based on the up-regulation of catabolism and down-regulation of anabolism, researchers showed genetic mutation-mediated metabolic reprogramming in the progression of cancer cachexia by screening for metabolites and investigating their direct effect on muscle atrophy.
[Acta Pharmacologica Sinica] Researchers investigated the effect of myeloid-derived growth factor to postinjury neointimal formation and the underlying mechanisms. Rat carotid arteries balloon-injured model was established.
