Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced autophagy inhibition in lung fibroblasts is closely associated with the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target rapamycin (PI3K-Akt-mTOR) pathway. However, underlying mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that LPS activated PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway and inhibited fibroblast by depleting thymocyte differentiation antigen-1 (Thy-1) upregulating integrin β3 (Itgb3). Challenge human MRC-5 cell line resulted...
Background Hypoxia is associated with the evasion of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) from immune surveillance. increases subpopulation putative TNBC stem-like cells (TNBCSCs) through activating Wnt/β-Catenin signaling. The shedding MHC class I-related chain A (MICA) particularly noteworthy in stem (CSCs), promoting resistance CSCs to natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity. To reestablish MICA/NKG2D-mediated immunosurveillance, we proposed design a fusion protein (SHH002-hu1-MICA) which...
Rationale: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a predominant cause of cancer-related mortality, with its progression and treatment resistance significantly influenced by stem cells (CSCs) their complex intercellular communication mechanisms. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) have emerged as pivotal mediators signaling, affecting tumor microenvironment modulation therapeutic resistance. This study investigates the role CSC-derived sEVs in transmitting stemness traits through selective...
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is one of the most common hematologic malignancies in children worldwide. Despite advances chemotherapy recent years, more than 50% adult T-ALL patients still experience treatment resistance and relapse/refractory disease. Moringa oleifera , a new food resource China, has high nutritional value various pharmacological activities. protein main active ingredients leaves, some studies have shown that antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anticancer,...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains one of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies worldwide. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are being found to play crucial roles in human cancer, including CRC.

Cell survival...
Abstract Background Anti-angiogenic therapy has been widely applied to the clinical treatment of malignant tumors. However, efficacy such treatments called into question, especially in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Bevacizumab, first anti-angiogenic agent approved by FDA, actually increases invasive and metastatic properties TNBC cells, resulting from activation Wnt/β-catenin signaling response hypoxia. As a critical receptor signaling, Frizzled-7 (Fzd7) is aberrantly expressed TNBC,...
Owing to their dual-resonance enhanced sensitivity, cavity optomechanical systems provide an ideal platform for ultrasound sensing. In this work, we realize high-sensitivity air-coupled sensing from kilohertz megahertz frequency range based on whispering gallery mode microcavities. Using a $57$-$\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{m}$-diameter microtoroid with high optical Q factor (approximately ${10}^{7}$) and mechanical $700$), achieve sensitivities of...
Abstract Abnormal energy metabolism is one of the characteristics tumours. In last few years, more and attention being paid to role regulation tumour aerobic glycolysis. Cancer cells display enhanced glycolysis, also known as Warburg effect, whereby absorb glucose produce a large amount lactic acid under conditions favour proliferation metastasis. this study, we report that haploinsufficient suppressor ASPP2, can inhibit HCC growth stemness by regulating effect through WNT/β‐catenin pathway....
Abstract Protein kinase B (AKT) hyperactivation and de novo lipogenesis are both common in tumor progression. Sterol regulatory element‐binding protein 1 (SREBP1) is the master regulator for lipid metabolism, arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) an enzyme that can catalyze symmetric dimethyl (SDMA) modification of mature form SREBP1 (mSREBP1) to induce its hyperactivation. Here, we report SDMA‐modified mSREBP1 (mSREBP1‐SDMA) was overexpressed correlated with Ser473‐phosphorylated AKT...
