Article Abstract
Membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) is highly expressed in various malignant tumors. Therefore, evaluating the expression level of MT1-MMP in tumors is crucial. We designed and synthesized [Ga]Ga-DOTA-BT1718, which targets MT1-MMP, to monitor MT1-MMP expression levels in malignant tumors via positron emission tomography/computed tomography. The results demonstrated that [Ga]Ga-DOTA-BT1718 exhibited a high uptake in HT1080, Capan2, and U87MG tumors with high MT1-MMP expression. In contrast, it demonstrated low uptake in A549 tumors with low MT1-MMP expression. Notably, this difference was significant ( < 0.05). Preliminary clinical translation results demonstrated that [Ga]Ga-DOTA-BT1718 exhibited significant uptake in patients with pancreatic cancer and glioma, indicating its great potential for clinical application.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), while often having a favorable prognosis, can progress to aggressive forms. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are crucial in extracellular matrix remodeling and are implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis. This study investigated MMP expression and activity in PTC and the efficacy of two selective MMP inhibitors in suppressing PTC cell migration and invasion.

Invadosomes are a family of subcellular actin-based structures essential for cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interaction and remodeling. In non-invasive cells, they are referred to as podosomes, which enable adhesion, migration, and ECM remodeling via secretion of metalloproteinases or mechano-traction. In invasive tumoral cells, these structures are called invadopodia due to their function.

Objectives: To elucidate the role of N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression and its epigenetic mechanisms, particularly in relation to metastasis.
Methods: TCGA and GTEx databases were used to analyze the expression and roles of NAT10 in pancreatic cancer. We constructed stable cell lines with NAT10 knockdown in PC cell lines, AsPC-1 and KPC.

Background: Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is a benign and locally confined osteolytic lesion that occasionally exhibits aggressive behavior, while the peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is a reactive lesion with localized proliferation. Both lesions present similar histological characteristics.
Objective: To compare the immunoexpression of the main invadopodia-related proteins in CGCG and PGCG in the jaws.
