Brg1 Inhibition Prevents Liver Fibrosis and Cholangiocarcinoma by Attenuating Progenitor Expansion

Investigators demonstrated the function of Brg1 in promoting hepatic progenitor cell expansion, liver cirrhosis, and ultimately intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma development in chronically injured livers, which was largely dependent on Wnt/β‐catenin signaling.

Crenolanib Regulates ERk and AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathways in RAS/BRAF-Mutated Colorectal Cancer Cells and Organoids

Scientists used multiple colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines to investigate the growth-inhibitory effect of crenolanib and its effect in combination with other cytotoxic agents. Primary cultures of patient-derived organoids, a model that reflects the heterogeneity of clinical CRC, were used to further validate the effects of crenolanib.

Comparative Stemness and Differentiation of Luminal and Basal Breast Cancer Stem Cell Type under Glutamine-Deprivation

Scientists showed that breast cancer stem cells differentiated into CD24+ epithelial population under gln-deprivation and demonstrated increased expression of epithelial markers such as e-cadherin, claudin-1 and decreased expression of mesenchymal protein n-cadherin.
