Sustained proliferation in cancer: Mechanisms and novel therapeutic targets

TL;DR: Natural compounds found to inhibit one or more pathways that contribute to proliferation have been found and will be very important for identifying signaling pathways and molecular targets that may provide early diagnostic markers and/or critical targets for the development of new drugs or drug combinations that block tumor formation and progression.

Microbiota-Induced Changes in Drosophila melanogaster Host Gene Expression and Gut Morphology

TL;DR: The results validate the notion that important insights on complex host-microbe relationships can be obtained from the use of a well-established and genetically tractable invertebrate model and identify temporally responsive genes and showed that the overall impact of microbiota was greater in older flies.

Dynamic compaction of human mesenchymal stem/precursor cells into spheres self-activates caspase-dependent IL1 signaling to enhance secretion of modulators of inflammation and immunity (PGE2, TSG6, and STC1)

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that MSC spontaneously aggregated into sphere‐like structures after injection into a subcutaneous air pouch or the peritoneum of mice, indicating that assembly of MSC into spheres triggers caspase‐dependent IL1 signaling and the secretion of modulators of inflammation and immunity.

Identification of stem cells in small intestine and colon by marker gene Lgr5

TL;DR: The expression pattern of Lgr5 suggests that it marks stem cells in multiple adult tissues and cancers, suggesting that it represents the stem cell of the small intestine and colon.
