Tissues maintain their function through interaction with microenvironment. During aging, both hair follicles and blood vessels (BV) in skin undergo degenerative changes. However, it is elusive whether the changes are due to intrinsic aging or respectively, interactions. To explore how interact regulate angiogenesis regeneration during aging. Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) analyses were used identify declined ability of dermal papilla (DP) endothelial cells (ECs) CellChat CellCall...

Abstract Background Obesity and obesity-related cancers contribute to rising healthcare costs declining life expectancy in the US improving diet quality plays a crucial role reversing such trends. Existing studies on relationship between healthy food access cancer mortality present mixed findings, whereas procurement activities are largely overlooked.

<title>Abstract</title> This study recalculates the modified Retail Food Environment Index (mRFEI) using 2018–2019 Infogroup dataset, addressing a data gap left since index’s last revision in 2011. The updated mRFEI is employed to assess current food access disparities United States. Based on recalculated mRFEI, we have evaluated evolution of inequities by examining relationships between and each theme community’s social vulnerability index (SVI) over decade. Our findings reveal that higher...

Erythroblastic islands (EBIs) are the specialized structures for erythropoiesis, but they have never been found functional in tumors. As most common pediatric liver malignancy, hepatoblastoma (HB) requires more effective and safer therapies to prevent progression lifelong impact of complications on young children. However, developing such is impeded by a lack comprehensive understanding tumor microenvironment. By single-cell RNA sequencing 13 treatment-naive HB patients, we discover an...

Mitophagy maintains tissue homeostasis by self-eliminating defective mitochondria through autophagy. How mitophagy regulates stem cell activity during hair regeneration remains unclear. Here, we found that promotes the proliferation of germ (HG) cells regulating glutathione (GSH) metabolism. First, single-cell RNA sequencing, mitochondrial probe, transmission electron microscopy, and immunofluorescence staining showed stronger increased mitophagy-related gene especially Prohibitin 2 (Phb2)...

Residual cell-intrinsic innate immunity in cancer cells hampers infection with oncolytic viruses. Translational control of mRNA is an important feature immunity, yet the identity translationally regulated mRNAs functioning host defense remains ill-defined. We report translatomes resistant murine "4T1" breast infected three most clinically advanced viruses: herpes simplex virus 1, reovirus, and vaccinia virus. Common among all infections are de-repressed mRNAs, including Inpp5e, encoding...

Abstract Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children, is an aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis. Despite current management, 5-year survival rate for patients metastatic RMS ∼30%; underscoring need to develop better treatment strategies. We have recently reported that pannexin 1 (PANX1) levels are downregulated and restoring its expression inhibits progression. Here, we surveyed characterized molecular changes induced by PANX1 re-expression RMS. cataloged...

The mammalian reovirus Type 3 Dearing (T3D) is a naturally occurring oncolytic virus. We previously identified T3D variant isolated from persistently infected cancer cells that has premature stop codon mutation in the S1 gene, generating truncated σ1-attachment protein lacks globular head. now report on molecular characterization of this variant, named RP116, and assess its antitumor potential human syngeneic mouse models. RP116 replicates efficiently several cell lines, shows reduced...

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma of childhood thought to arise from impaired differentiation skeletal muscle progenitors. We have recently identified Pannexin 1 (PANX1) channels as a novel regulator myogenesis. In the present study, we determined that PANX1 transcript and protein levels are down-regulated in embryonal (eRMS) alveolar RMS (aRMS) patient-derived cell lines primary tumor specimens compared differentiated myoblasts tissue, respectively. While not...

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a deadly cancer of skeletal muscle origin. Pannexin 1 (PANX1) down-regulated in RMS and increasing its levels drastically inhibits progression. PANX1 upregulation thus represents prospective new treatment strategy for this malignancy. However, the mechanisms regulating expression, other contexts, remain largely unknown. Here we show that both normal express comparable amount mRNAs, but surprisingly canonical 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) or leader transcript...
