Review, Journal: Unveiling the resistance to therapies in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 13, 2024 We reviewed the current understanding of these multifaceted mechanisms operating in the PDAC microenvironment, influencing the response to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy regimens. We then describe how the lessons learned from these studies can guide us to discover novel therapeutic regimens to prevent, delay, or revert resistance and achieve durable clinical responses.

Journal, Cancer stem, Stroma: Breast Cancer Stem Cells Upregulate IRF6 in Stromal Fibroblasts to Induce Stromagenesis. (Pubmed Central) - Sep 14, 2024 In BCSC xenografts, fibroblast IRF6 expression led to an increase in the stromal area and fibroblast density in tumors, in addition to a reduction in necrotic growth. Based on our findings, we propose that fibroblast IRF6 function is an important factor in the development of the stromal microenvironment and in sustaining the BCSC tumor niche.

Journal: Modified C-type natriuretic peptide normalizes tumor vasculature, reinvigorates antitumor immunity, and improves solid tumor therapies. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 21, 2024 Administration of dCNP also inhibited stromagenesis and remodeling of the extracellular matrix and decreased tumor interstitial fluid pressure...Moreover, inclusion of dCNP into the chemo-, radio-, or immune-therapeutic regimens increased their efficacy against solid tumors in immunocompetent mice. These results demonstrate the proof of principle for using vasculature normalizing agonists to improve therapies against solid tumors and characterize dCNP as the first in class among such agents.

Journal: Efficacy of off-the-shelf bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for pediatric steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 15, 2024 Temcell is a mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) product approved for steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGVHD) in Japan...The first MSC cycle displayed the best overall response rate of 83%, including six patients with a complete response (CR) and with a 49% reduction in the mean daily dose of prednisone after eight weeks...MSC therapy appears to be an effective and safe treatment for pediatric SR-aGVHD, with a steroid-sparing effect and satisfactory efficacy upon re-administration. Further studies are needed to determine its appropriate combination with additional treatments and the optimal use of re-administration of MSCs.

Journal: Influence of substituting soybean meal with moringa seed cake on feed intake, growth performance, digestibility, blood parameters and economics of fattening crossbred calves. (Pubmed Central) - May 24, 2023 The first group (MSC0%) was fed the CM without any MSC (control), while the second (MSC25%), the third (MSC50%), and the fourth (MSC100%) groups were fed on 25%, 50% and 100% MSC by replacing SBM in CM respectively...Moreover, adding MSC to animals' rations at different levels improved most of blood metabolites compared to control. Conclusion, moringa seed cake can be used as an alternative protein source to soybean meal in fattening calves rations at level up to 50% to improve growth performance and net profit without adverse effects.

Monitoring FAP CAR T Cell Therapy with PET Imaging (Board No. 589) - Apr 21, 2023 - Abstract #ASGCT2023ASGCT_1167; FAP is a cell surface serine protease that is highly expressed by cancer associated fibroblasts in the TME that participate in the generation of the immunosuppressive stromagenic response in solid tumors...In this study, we utilized the 18F-radiolabeled FAP inhibitor (FAPI), [18F]AlF-FAPI-74, to image FAP in two different mouse tumor models...PET imaging is a powerful tool that can have may applications. PET imaging of FAP could be a highly useful approach to stratify patients prior to FAP CAR T therapy, as well as to monitor the pharmacodynamic response for FAP-targeted therapies.

Preclinical, Journal: FOXL1 + Telocytes in mouse colon orchestrate extracellular matrix biodynamics and wound repair resolution. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 23, 2022 This suggests a role for TC in stromagenesis, but it is hard to identify the specific contribution of TC when analyzing whole tissue profiling studies...However, this ECM-enrichment strategy represents an improvement and interesting avenue to study ECM proteins in the colon compared to total tissue analysis with a background of abundant cellular protein. Thus, the matrisomic approach presented in this study, and its target validation delivered a broader evaluation of the matrix remodeling occurring in the colonic sub-epithelial mesenchyme of the BmpR1a mouse model.

Review, Journal, Checkpoint inhibition: Targeting myeloid villains in the treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors in gastrointestinal cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 11, 2022 Abnormality of myeloid cells must impact on the entire host, including immune responses, stromagenesis, and cancer cells, leading to refractory cancer...Also, we highlight the possible oncoimmunological components involved in the mechanisms underlying the resistance to the ICI therapy, particularly focusing on myeloid cells, including unique subsets expressing IC molecules. A deeper understanding of the molecular and cellular determinants may facilitate its practical implementation of targeting myeloid villains, and improve the clinical outcomes in the ICI therapy of gastrointestinal cancer.

We will continue to investigate the mechanisms driving Prrx1-dependent ADM formation.

FOXL1+ TELOCYTES IN MOUSE COLON ORCHESTRATE ECM BIODYNAMICS AND WOUND REPAIR RESOLUTION ([VIRTUAL]) - Mar 25, 2022 - Abstract #CDDW2022CDDW_7; We have previously shown that BMPR1A signaling deletion in TCFoxL1+ influences the microenvironment via stromagenesis, immune infiltration and colonic dysplasia in mouse model of GI diseases...Conclusions Taken together, these Results suggest that Bmp-signaling deficient TCFoxL1+ significantly contribute to the collagen network biodynamics through increased collagen deposition, fiber alignment reorganization and regulation of the collagen triple-helix assembly. Other matrisome modulations suggest a state of unresolved wound healing due to tissue injury, that could be the etiology of GI pathology and lead to more severe conditions upon various environmental triggers.
