To Die or Not to Die: Gasdermins in Intestinal Health and Disease

[Seminars In Immunology] Intestinal homeostasis is achieved by the balance among intestinal epithelium, immune cells, and gut microbiota. Gasdermins, a family of membrane pore forming proteins, can trigger rapid inflammatory cell death in the gut, mainly pyroptosis and NETosis.

Wnt Signaling in Cell Adhesion, Development, and Colon Cancer

[IUBMB Life] Researchers review recent findings that indicate Wnt is a regulator of many other cellular physiological activities, such as macropinocytosis, endosome trafficking, protein stability, focal adhesions, and lysosomal activity.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing in Melanoma: What Have We Learned So Far?

[eBioMedicine] The authors examined the concept of intratumoural heterogeneity and the challenges it poses to achieving long-lasting treatment responses, and focused on the significance of next generation single-cell sequencing in advancing our understanding of melanoma diversity and the unique insights gained from single-cell studies.

Transcending Frontiers in Prostate Cancer: The Role of Oncometabolites on Epigenetic Regulation, CSCs, and Tumor Microenvironment to Identify New Therapeutic Strategies

[Cell Communication And Signaling] The authors delve into the implications of oncometabolite accumulation in prostate cancer, centering their focus on the consequential epigenetic alterations and impacts on cancer stem cells, with the ultimate goal of outlining novel therapeutic strategies.

The Promise and Potential of Brain Organoids

[Advanced Healthcare Materials] The authors examine the techniques behind organoid generation, their current and potential applications, and future directions for the field. Brain organoids possess complex architecture containing various neural cell types, synapses, and myelination.

Organoids as a Tool to Study the Impact of Heterogeneity in Gastrointestinal Epithelium on Host-Pathogen Interactions

[Clinical and Experimental Immunology] Focusing on the gastrointestinal tract, investigators provide an overview about cellular differentiation in vivo and in organoids and how differentiation in organoids and their derived models is used to advance our understanding of viral, bacterial, and parasitic infection.
