[EMBO Molecular Medicine] Scientists identified leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) as a mitogen for bovine choroidal endothelial cell (EC), although LIF had been mainly characterized as an EC growth inhibitor and an anti-angiogenic molecule.

[Journal of Biological Chemistry] Scientists examined for the first time the effect of N-myc-downregulated gene 1 (NDRG1) on androgen receptor expression, activation, and downstream signaling in LNCaP, 22Rv1 and C4-2B prostate cancer cell types.

[Laboratory Investigation] Scientists explored the protective effect of vitamin E on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the underlying mechanisms.

[Bioengineered] Scientists investigated the specific impacts of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing miR-455-5p in intrauterine adhesions.

[Journal of Translational Medicine] Scientists explored the function of circular RNA nucleolar and coiled-body phosphoprotein 1 (circNOLC1) in cancer stem cells of breast cancer and the inhibitory impact of propofol on circNOLC1.

[Cell Death & Disease] Regorafenib preferentially increased the growth inhibition and apoptosis of CK19+ cells in vitro, whereas sorafenib, apatinib, and 5-fluorouracil did not.
