cell proliferation

[International Journal of Biological Macromolecules] The authors suggested that Graphene Oxide loaded with vanadium doped titanium dioxide blended with chitosan, and polyvinyl alcohol (CS/PVA/GO/TiO2-V) patch provided a microenvironment favourable to cell growth and differentiation which positively modulated full-thickness wound healing.

[Nature Cell Biology] Scientists showed that Ddx21 was enriched in sprouting venous endothelial cells in response to Vegfc–Flt4 signalling. Ddx21 function was essential for Vegfc–Flt4-driven endothelial cell proliferation.

[Molecular Medicine Reports] Chronic hypertension can lead to kidney damage, known as hypertensive nephropathy or hypertensive nephrosclerosis. The authors investigated the mechanisms by which endothelial progenitor cells repaired primary rat kidney cells.

[Cell Cycle] Exosomes were extracted from normal human prostatic epithelial cell lines and prostate cancer (PCa) cell lines by ultrahigh speed centrifugation. Results of Western blot indicated that Alix, HSC70 and TSGl01 protein levels were upregulated in exosomes derived from PCa cells.

[Cancer Research] Investigators identified a long non-coding RNA, NXTAR, that was located convergent with the androgen receptor gene and was repressed in human prostate tumors and cell lines.

[Oncology Reports] The combined effect of Diosmin and naringenin in colon cancer cell lines HCT116 and SW480 were assessed by targeting apoptosis and inflammatory pathways.
