Cromolyn Inhibits the Secretion of Inflammatory Cytokines by Human Microglia (HMC3)

To better understand the mechanistic effect cromolyn has in slowing down or halting the neuroinflammatory response associated with Alzheimer’s Disease progression, the authors tested the effect of cromolyn to dampen the inflammatory response in the human HMC3 microglia cell line.

Brd4-Bound Enhancers Drive Cell-Intrinsic Sex Differences in Glioblastoma

Researchers discovered correlated transcriptome-wide sex differences in gene expression, H3K27ac marks, large Brd4-bound enhancer usage, and Brd4 localization to Myc and p53 genomic binding sites. These sex-biased gene expression patterns were also evident in human glioblastoma stem cells.

Integrated Transcription Factor Profiling with Transcriptome Analysis Identifies L1PA2 Transposons as Global Regulatory Modulators in a Breast Cancer Model

The authors applied the pipeline to a breast cancer model, and found that the L1PA2 transposon subfamily contributes abundant regulatory sequences to co-ordinated transcriptional regulation in breast cancer.

EFA6B Regulates a Stop Signal for Collective Invasion in Breast Cancer

Researchers report that loss of exchange factor for ARF6, B (EFA6B) triggered a transcriptional reprogramming of cell-to-ECM interaction machinery and unleashed CDC42-dependent collective invasion in collagen.

Exercise Training Improves Tumor Control by Increasing CD8+ T-Cell Infiltration via CXCR3 Signaling and Sensitizes Breast Cancer to Immune Checkpoint Blockade

Scientists implanted E0771, EMT6, MMTV-PyMT, and MCa-M3C BC cells orthotopically in wild-type or Cxcr3-/- female mice and initiated intensity-controlled exercise training sessions when tumors reached ~100 mm3. They characterized the tumor microenvironment using flow cytometry, transcriptome analysis, proteome array, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry.

Ferritinophagy Is Involved in the Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles-Induced Ferroptosis of Vascular Endothelial Cells

Scientists report that zinc oxide nanoparticles can induce ferroptosis of both HUVECs and EA.hy926 cells, as evidenced by the elevation of intracellular iron levels, lipid peroxidation and cell death in a dose- and time-dependent manner.
