Preventing Breast Cancer Metastasis: A Role for Cathepsin C Inhibitors
Breast cancer deaths are often the result of metastasis to distant organs including the lungs. Overcoming inhibitory mechanisms and establishing growth in new microenvironments is critical to the metastatic process. Using anti-mouse IL-1b (clone B122) and anti-mouse...
A quick review on current development of pancreatic organoids
Organoids – the past, present and the futureOrganoid models are known for their thrilling opportunities and potential for scientists in studying developmental processes, drug testing and disease modelling, including genetic, developmental disorder, degenerative...
Role of neutrophil and PD-L1 pathway in wound healing of a burn injury
OverviewScience Advances has published an article discussing the role of neutrophil and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathways in wound healing of a burn injury. Below are some highlighted topics from the article: • Importance of proactive infection control in...
Role of ORF8 and MHC-1 in T-cell antiviral immunity mechanism of COVID-19
OverviewCytotoxic T lymphocytes, also known as CD8+T cells, act a crucial role in regulating viral infection. They let out various toxic substances that can directly lead to the death of viral-infected cells. T cell receptors on cytotoxic T lymphocytes perceive...
Role of Ln-γ2 and TGF-β1 in anti-PD-1 therapy
OverviewThe PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint plays an important role in serving immune escape for tumor cells. Tumor cells can bypass antitumor immunity by manipulating these immune checkpoints. In a research article from Frontier, the authors commented that immunotherapy...
