The ganglioside GM3 exerts its different effects via various growth factor receptors. The present study investigated and comparatively analyzed the opposing effects exerted by GM3 on the migration of mouse hepatocellular carcinoma Hepa1‑6 cells via epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR/cMet). The results demonstrated that GM3 inhibited EGF‑stimulated motility, but promoted HGF‑stimulated motility of the Hepa1‑6 cells via phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase/Akt‑mediated migration signaling. It is well established that the main cytokines modulating cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis are different in different types of tumor. This difference may, at least in part, explain why GM3 exerted its actions in a tumor‑type specific manner.

Background: The expression and clinical correlation of BRAFV600E mutation and programmed cell death-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) in children with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) have been reported, but the conclusions of previous studies are inconsistent. In addition, it has been reported that elevated cathepsin S (CTSS) expression is associated with various cancers. However, there is currently no research on the correlation between CTSS and LCH.

Salt stress impairs photosynthetic efficiency and consequently reduces the growth, development, and grain yield of crop plants. The formation of hydrophobic barriers in the root endodermis, including the suberin lamellae and Casparian strips, is a key adaptive strategy for salt stress tolerance. In this study, we identified the role of the rice NAC transcription factor, ONAC005, in salt stress tolerance.

Background: Sarcomas are rare cancer with a heterogeneous group of tumors. They affect both genders across all age groups and present significant heterogeneity, with more than 70 histological subtypes. Despite tailored treatments, the high metastatic potential of sarcomas remains a major factor in poor patient survival, as metastasis is often the leading cause of death.

Plant thermomorphogenesis is a critical adaptive response to elevated ambient temperatures. The transcription factor PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 4 (PIF4) integrates diverse environmental and phytohormone signals to coordinate thermoresponsive growth. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying plant thermomorphogenic growth remain poorly understood.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by the excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which triggers a severe inflammatory cascade and the destruction of the alveolar-capillary barrier, leading to respiratory failure and life-threatening outcomes. Considering the limitations and adverse effects associated with current therapeutic interventions, developing effective and safe strategies that target the complex pathophysiological mechanisms of ALI is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Herein, we developed an inhalable, multifunctional nanotherapeutic (MSCNVs@CAT) by encapsulating catalase (CAT) in mesenchymal-stem-cell-derived nanovesicles (MSCNVs).
