Supernatants from pleural and ascitic fluid in patients with ovarian cancer can increase the migration activity ... and to hyaluronan expressed on the surface of human peritoneal mesothelial cells via ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are a special subtype of dendritic cells with the morphology of plasma cells. pDCs produce massive amounts of type I interferon (IFN-I), which was originally found ...

The volumes of a cell [cell volume (CV)] and its organelles are adjusted by osmoregulatory processes. During pinocytosis, extracellular fluid volume equivalent to its CV is incorporated within an hour ...

Bone-marrow-derived multipotent progenitor stromal cells — or mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) — are the common predecessors of cells of the mesenchymal lineage, such as bone, cartilage and fat ...

As the subcapsular sinus and the conduit system restrict the diffusion of large antigens from the lymphatic fluid, a cell-mediated mechanism must operate to transport antigen to FDCs. Overall ...

Feb. 6, 2025 — A recent study investigates how polyester microdroplets, potential precursors to modern cells, could form under realistic early Earth conditions. Researchers pushed these ...

This finding advances our understanding of how blood vessels sprout new branches through cell migration. Blood vessels supply the cells in our bodies with the oxygen and nutrients they need to ...

In specific settings, biochemical and haematological analysis of ascitic fluid may provide answers to important clinical questions. This review seeks to outline the value and limitations of ...

For instance, MSLN-targeted CAR-T cell therapies have been associated with pulmonary toxicity, likely because of MSLN expression on normal mesothelial cells of the pleura and peritoneum. Similarly, ...
