Metabolic reprogramming of cancer-associated fibroblasts by IDH3α downregulation.

TLDR
It is reported that TGF-β1- or PDGF-induced CAFs switch from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis, and downregulation of isocitrate dehydrogenase 3α (IDH3α) is identified as a marker for this switch.

Structure and allosteric regulation of human IDH3 holoenzyme

TL;DR: The molecular mechanism of the assembly and allosteric regulation of human IDH3 holoenzyme is revealed, in which the αβ and αγ heterodimers assemble the α2βγ heterotetramer via their clasp domains, and two β and γ subunits assemble the (α2 βγ)2 heterooctamer via the β and β subunits.

A Quick Guide to CAF Subtypes in Pancreatic Cancer

TL;DR: A review of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in pancreatic cancer can be found in this paper , where the authors provide a helpful overview that enables readers to quickly familiarize themselves with field of CAF heterogeneity and to grasp the phenotypic, functional and therapeutic distinctions of various stromal subpopulations.

Abnormal energy metabolism can alter foraging behavior in termites in different social contexts

TL;DR: Analyzing the change in energy metabolism in the whole organism and brain after silencing the key metabolic gene isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) found that the downregulation of the conserved metabolic gene IDH impaired whole-organism and the brain energy metabolism and further altered foraging behavior, resulting in decreased walking activity but increased foraging success in the termite O. formosanus.

Inflammation and cancer

TL;DR: It is now becoming clear that the tumour microenvironment, which is largely orchestrated by inflammatory cells, is an indispensable participant in the neoplastic process, fostering proliferation, survival and migration.

Angiogenesis in cancer and other diseases

TL;DR: Pathological angiogenesis is a hallmark of cancer and various ischaemic and inflammatory diseases and integrated understanding is leading to the development of a number of exciting and bold approaches to treat cancer and other diseases, but owing to several unanswered questions, caution is needed.

Stromal Fibroblasts Present in Invasive Human Breast Carcinomas Promote Tumor Growth and Angiogenesis through Elevated SDF-1/CXCL12 Secretion

TL;DR: Using a coimplantation tumor xenograft model, it is demonstrated that carcinoma-associated fibroblasts extracted from human breast carcinomas promote the growth of admixed breast carcinoma cells significantly more than do normal mammaries derived from the same patients.

Basement membranes: structure, assembly and role in tumour angiogenesis

TL;DR: The basement membrane (BM) as mentioned in this paper is a specialized form of extracellular matrix (ECM) which mediates tissue compartmentalization and sends signals to epithelial cells about the external microenvironment.

Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts direct tumor progression of initiated human prostatic epithelium.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that fibroblasts associated with carcinomas stimulate tumor progression of initiated nontumorigenic epithelial cells both in an in vivo tissue recombination system and in vitro coculture system.
