April 2016 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study suggests that targeting the tumor stroma to promote the formation of dermal condensates may offer a novel approach to treating basal cell carcinoma.
December 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” In this study, high expression of S100A4 in glioblastoma was associated with worse patient survival and promoted tumor progression by enhancing pro-tumorigenic vascular functions.
This study found that direct co-culture of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells with regulatory T cells enhanced osteogenic gene expression, alkaline phosphatase activity, and matrix mineralization, suggesting Treg's potential in promoting bone regeneration by modulating BMSC mechanobiology through the ROCK-myosin signaling pathway.
