Inhibition of the Canonical Wnt Signaling Pathway by a β-Catenin/CBP Inhibitor Prevents Heart Failure by Ameliorating Cardiac Hypertrophy and Fibrosis

[Scientific Reports] Researchers investigated how ICG001 could prevent cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis induced by transverse aortic constriction and found it may have mediated the substrates in the glycolysis pathway and the distinct alteration of oxidative stress during cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.

Structural Characteriation of Inhibitory and Non-Inhibitory MMP-9-TIMP-1 Complexes and Implications for Regulatory Mechanisms of MMP-9

[Scientific Reports] Molecular modeling methods were applied to build the inhibitory and non-inhibitory matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9)–TIMP-1 complexes, which allowed for a detailed description of these structures and allowed for a better understanding of the regulatory processes in which MMP-9 was involved.

Desmoglein-2 Harnesses a PDZ-GEF2/Rap1 Signaling Axis to Control Cell Spreading and Focal Adhesions Independent of Cell–Cell Adhesion

[Scientific Reports] Researchers found that cells lacking the desmosomal cadherin Desmoglein-2 displayed a significant increase in spreading area on both fibronectin and collagen, compared to control A431 cells.

Effect of Expansion Media and Fibronectin Coating on Growth and Chondrogenic Differentiation of Human Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

[Scientific Reports] The use of a xenogeneic-free medium provided a suitable alternative for human bone marrow MSC expansion, due the capability to maintain cell characteristic and potency.

Characteristics and Spatially-Defined Immune (Micro)landscapes of Early-Stage PD-L1-Positive Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

[Clinical Cancer Research] A large cohort of chemotherapy-naïve triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), clinicopathologic features, deconvoluted RNA immune signatures, and intraepithelial and stromal TIME were identified in subsets of PD-L1+ and PD-L1- TNBC.

Engineering Aligned Human Cardiac Muscle Using Developmentally Inspired Fibronectin Micropatterns

[Scientific Reports] Scientists identified cell–cell and cell-ECM interactions in the microenvironment of the early four-chambered vertebrate heart that drive cardiomyocyte organization and alignment.
