Identification of a regulatory pathway inhibiting adipogenesis via RSPO2
Integration of APC scRNA-seq data reveals heterogeneity of adipocyte progenitor cells In a previous study9, we defined Lin−Sca1+CD142+ APCs as adipogenesis regulatory (Areg) cells and demonstrated that these cells are both refractory toward adipogenesis and control adipocyte formation of APCs through paracrine signaling. In contrast, Merrick et. al.4 observed that Lin−CD142+ cells…
Characterization of Blood- Based Molecular Profiling in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Introduction Most cases of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are diagnosed in the metastatic or locally advanced stage. It is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States,1,2 with a 5-year overall survival (OS) around 10% in this country2 despite years of research and therapeutic development. For those patients…
Identification of lipid metabolism-associated gene signature
Background Female breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer. Despite the dramatic improvement in breast cancer prognosis due to recent therapeutic advances, such as more effective adjuvant and neo-adjuvant chemotherapies, together with more radical and safer surgery, advances in early diagnosis and treatment over the…
Single-cell DNA and RNA sequencing reveals the dynamics of intra-tumor heterogeneity in a colorectal cancer model | BMC Biology
Organoid culture of small intestinal cells and lentiviral transduction C57BL/6J mice and BALB/cAnu/nu immune-deficient nude mice were purchased from CLEA Japan (Tokyo, Japan). The small intestine was harvested from wild-type male C57BL/6J mice at 3–5 weeks of age (Additional file 1: Figure S9A). Crypts were purified and dissociated into single cells,…
