TL;DR: The results from this investigation indicate that a 30 min dipping of the fibers in 0.5% alkali solution followed by 30 min alkali-steam treatment leads to an increase in the tensile strength of up to 65%, which appears to be due to fiber separation and removal of non-cellulosic materials, which, in turn, resulted in an increased crystallinity.

TL;DR: Enhanced swelling, degradation, hydrophilicity and water vapour transmission rate were found for the bilayered scaffold compared to that of the PCL and CS-PCL scaffolds.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exosomes secreted by human and mouse tumor-educated mesenchymal stem cells drive accelerated breast cancer progression by inducing differentiation of monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells into highly immunosuppressive M2-polarized macrophages at tumor beds.

TL;DR: The EMT-inducing potential of CXCL13 is shown as well as the prognostic value of C XCL13–CXCR5 co-expression in primary BC is demonstrated, suggesting that CxCL13-CX CR5–RANKL–Src axis may present a therapeutic target in LNM positive BC patients.

TL;DR: This molecular study uniquely introduces a fucose-rich bacterial polysaccharide as a potential inhibitor of H2O2-induced stress and toxicities.
