fMLP-Induced IL-8 Release Is Dependent on NADPH Oxidase in Human Neutrophils by María A. Hidalgo, María D. Carretta, Stefanie E. Teuber, Cristian Zárate, Leonardo Cárcamo, Ilona I. Concha, Rafael A. Burgos

“…We showed that IL-8 release induced by fMLP is dependent on NADPH oxidase, and ROS could play a redundant role in cell signalling, ultimately activating the PI3K/Akt and NF-κB pathways in neutrophils.…”

Mural cell dysfunction contributes to diastolic heart failure by promoting endothelial dysfunction and vessel remodelling by Mandy O. J. Grootaert, Alessandra Pasut, Jana Raman, Steven J. Simmonds, Bram Callewaert, Ümare Col, Mieke Dewerchin, Peter Carmeliet, Stephane Heymans, Elizabeth A. V. Jones

“…NicheNet analysis on the single cell transcriptomic data revealed little signalling from the ECs to the mural cells; instead, mural cells signalled strongly to ECs. Mechanistically, pericyte dysfunction induces an EC growth arrest via TNFα-dependent paracrine signalling and downstream signalling through STAT1. …”

Combined Graphene Oxide with 2-Methoxyestradiol for Effective Anticancer Therapy in-vitro Model by Uzdrowska K, Knap N, Konieczna L, Kamm A, Kuban-Jankowska A, Gierałtowska J, Belka M, Baran M, Chlanda A, Kowiorski KM, Żołnierski A, Gulczynski J, Lipińska L, Bączek T, Izycka-Swieszewska E, Górska-Ponikowska M

“…An appropriate dosage of GO-2-ME/rGO-2-ME, in which GO/rGO is a carrier of 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME), can ensure effective penetration of the active substance through biological boundaries/membranes and controlled modification of cell signalling, ultimately leading to the selective elimination of malignant cells.Keywords: new graphene-based anticancer drugs, graphene-based oncological therapy, new anticancer treatment, biomedical innovations, drugs delivery systems…”

Environmental microbial communications in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria by P. Srikanth, D. Sivakumar, J. Nouri

“…The scope of quorum sensing extends to inter-nation communication, mediate through numerous newly diagnosed extra-cell signal molecules known as autoinducers. The concentration of these signalling substances rises above a critical level when the population density does, causing particular gene expression patterns in the microorganisms. …”
