CX3CL1 in the red bone marrow promotes renal cell carcinoma to metastasize to the spine by involving the Src-related pathway

328 views | Oct 30 2023

CX3CL1 promotes migration and invasion of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells, potentially facilitating RCC metastasis to the spine, through activation of the Src/FAK signaling pathway. [Read the Full Post]

PTK2B regulates immune responses of neutrophils and protects mucosal inflammation in ulcerative colitis

358 views | Oct 14 2023

Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2B (PTK2B) plays a role in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) by promoting neutrophil migration and inhibiting mucosal inflammation, making it a potential therapeutic target for UC treatment. [Read the Full Post]

Exploring MicroRNA and Exosome Involvement in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Drug Response

285 views | Jun 20 2023

The study revealed that transfection of specific microRNAs enhanced the sensitivity of malignant pleural mesothelioma cells to chemotherapy and a FAK inhibitor, while also demonstrating that YM155-resistant cells showed increased exosome secretion and upregulation of drug transporter genes ABCA6 and ABCA10, which correlated with poor sensitivity to YM155.
