462 views | Jul 19 2021

Mayu Ono et al. found that ER-positive breast cancer cells used multiple molecular mechanisms to survive in the presence of palbociclib. [Read the Full Post]

Targeting Pyruvate Kinase M2 phosphorylation reverses aggressive cancer phenotypes

592 views | Jul 19 2021

Maria Apostolidi et al. found that combinations of Dinaciclib with TEPP-46 reduced cell invasion, impaired redox balance, and triggered cancer cell death. [Read the Full Post]

TGF-β Alters the Proportion of Infiltrating Immune Cells in a Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

450 views | Jul 18 2021

Kasia Trebska-McGowan et al. found that TGF-β had an overall immunosuppressive effect mediated by TAM PD-L1 expression and decreased presence of DCs. [Read the Full Post]

Synthesis and Evaluation of Chiral Rhodanine Derivatives Bearing Quinoxalinyl Imidazole Moiety as ALK5 Inhibitors

412 views | Jul 18 2021

Li-Min Zhao et al. suggested that the synthesized rhodanine compounds had good ALK5 inhibitory activity and could be used for further research and development as potential antifungal drugs. [Read the Full Post]

NLRP3-activated bone marrow dendritic cells play antileukemic roles via IL-1β/Th1/IFN-γ in acute myeloid leukemia

333 views | Jul 16 2021

Qinqin Liu et al. thought that NLRP3-activated BMDCs promoted the proliferation of IFN-γ-producing Th1 cells with antileukemic effects and might provide insight into the basis for leukemia immunotherapy in patients with AML. [Read the Full Post]

Porcupine inhibitor LGK‑974 inhibits Wnt/β‑catenin signaling and modifies tumor‑associated macrophages resulting in inhibition of the malignant behaviors of non‑small cell lung cancer cells

196 views | Jul 16 2021

Yang Tang et al. found that LGK‑974 indirectly inhibited the malignant behaviors of A549 and H1299 cells by regulating the inflammatory microenvironment by inhibiting Wnt/β‑catenin signaling in TAMs. [Read the Full Post]

Mechanism of Ferroptosis and Its Role in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

519 views | Jul 15 2021

Effect of Malt-PEG-Abz@RSL3 micelles on HepG2 cells based on NADPH depletion and GPX4 inhibition in ferroptosis

114 views | Jul 15 2021

Wenhua Li et al. thought that key coenzyme NADPH that participated in synthesis of GSH and Trx(SH)2 was depleted by azobenzene moiety, resulting in decreasing GSH and Trx(SH)2, which dually induced ferroptosis in tumor cells and promoted cell apoptosis. [Read the Full Post]
