Silencing of Sinusoidal DDR1 Reduces Murine Liver Metastasis by Colon Carcinoma
(Nature, 2020-10-27)
Liver metastasis depends on the collagenous microenvironment generated by hepatic sinusoidal cells (SCs). DDR1 is an atypical collagen receptor linked to tumor progression, but whether SCs express DDR1 and its implication ...
Innate Lymphoid Cells in the Malignant Melanoma Microenvironment
(MDPI, 2020-10-29)
The role of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in cancer progression has been uncovered in recent years. ILCs are classified as Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 ILCs, which are characterized by the transcription factors necessary for ...
Ocoxin as a complement to first line treatments in cancer
(Ivyspring International Publisher, 2021)
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are the most frequent treatment for patients suffering from malignant progression of cancer. Even though new treatments are now being implemented, administration of these chemotherapeutic ...
Evaluation of bioactive sphingolipids in 4-HPR-resistant leukemia cells
(BioMed Central, 2011-10-07)
Background -- N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4-HPR, fenretinide) is a synthetic retinoid with potent pro-apoptotic activity against several types of cancer, but little is known regarding mechanisms leading to chemoresistance. ...
Inhibition of the Human Hsc70 System by Small Ligands as a Potential Anticancer Approach
(MDPI, 2021-06-11)
Heat shock protein (Hsp) synthesis is upregulated in a wide range of cancers to provide the appropriate environment for tumor progression. The Hsp110 and Hsp70 families have been associated to cancer cell survival and ...
Lipid fingerprint-based histology accurately classifies nevus, primary melanoma, and metastatic melanoma samples
(Wiley, 2024-02)
Probably, the most important factor for the survival of a melanoma patient is early detection and precise diagnosis. Although in most cases these tasks are readily carried out by pathologists and dermatologists, there are ...
The new preservative-free ophthalmic formulation of bilastine 0.6% preserves the ocular surface epithelial integrity in a comparative in vitro study
(Nature, 2024)
Allergic conjunctivitis (AC) is the most common form of allergic eye disease and an increasingly prevalent condition. Topical eye drop treatments are the usual approach for managing AC, although their impact on the ocular ...
Systemic cellular migration: The forces driving the directed locomotion movement of cells
(Oxford University Press, 2024-04)
Directional motility is an essential property of cells. Despite its enormous relevance in many fundamental physiological and pathological
processes, how cells control their locomotion movements remains an unresolved ...
The role of Eudragit® as a component of hydrogel formulations for medical devices
(RSC, 2023)
Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in developing hydrogels as medical devices. By physically cross-linking pharmaceutically approved polymers into three-dimensional matrices, we can ensure their ...
The Prevention of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Elderly Rats after Lower Limb Tourniquet Use
(MDPI, 2022-09-28)
Background: Lower limb ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI-LL) is a common major complication of orthopedic surgery, especially in elderly patients. It has previously been demonstrated that folinic acid (FA) reduced IRI-LL ...
