A Natural Product YSK-A Blocks SARS-CoV-2 Propagation by Targeting Multiple Host Genes

[Scientific Reports] Investigators used YSK-A, a mixture of three herbal components Boswellia serrata, Commiphora myrrha, and propolis, to evaluate potential antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2.

Integrin α5β1 Contributes to Cell Fusion and Inflammation Mediated by SARS-CoV-2 Spike via RGD-Independent Interaction

[Proceedings Of The National Academy Of Sciences Of The United States Of America] Scientists revealed that SARS-CoV-2 spike protein exploited α5β1 signaling to facilitate cell–cell fusion and trigger inflammatory responses through the interaction with α5β1.

CXCL10 and Nrf2-Upregulated Mesenchymal Stem Cells Reinvigorate T Lymphocytes for Combating Glioblastoma

[Journal Of Immunotherapy] MSCs were transduced with a recombinant lentivirus encoding Cxcl10, Nrf2, and a ferritin heavy chain reporter gene to increase their CXCL10 secretion, tumor microenvironment survival, and MRI visibility.

Differential Roles of eNOS in Late Effects of VEGF-A on Hyperpermeability in Different Types of Endothelial Cells

[Scientific Reports] Scientists showed that VEGF-A induced hyperpermeability via endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)-dependent and eNOS-independent mechanisms at 2 days after VEGF-A stimulation.

An Injectable Subcutaneous Colon-Specific Immune Niche for the Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis

[Nature Biomedical Engineering] Scientists showed, in three mouse models of established ulcerative colitis, that a subcutaneously injected colon-specific immunosuppressive niche reduced inflammation in the animals’ lower gastrointestinal tract.

Role of PDGFRA+ Cells and a CD55+ PDGFRALo Fraction in the Gastric Mesenchymal Niche

[Nature Communications] Investigators shed light on spatial, molecular, and functional organization of gastric mesenchyme and the spectrum of signaling sources for epithelial support.
