Metabolic dependencies of metastasis-initiating cells in female breast cancer

Albert Santamaria Martinez, Pierre Vincent Dessen, Angela Madurga Alonso, Candice Megan T Young, Laurent Nam Ky Beziaud

Understanding the mechanisms that enable cancer cells to metastasize is essential in preventing cancer progression. Here we examine the metabolic adaptations of metastasis-initiating cells (MICs) in female breast cancer and how those shape their metastatic ...

Optical Urea Sensing in Sweat for Kidney Healthcare by Sensitive and Selective Non-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

Christian Enz, Sandro Carrara, Assim Boukhayma, Ata Jedari Golparvar, Mattia Petrelli

Sweat biomarker analysis has attracted much interest in applications ranging from sports to wearable healthcare. Among all the sweat biomolecules, abnormal urea levels have been linked to several complications, particularly renal dysfunction. Here, we repo ...

Genomic Instability Profiles at the Single Cell Level in Mouse Colorectal Cancers of Defined Genotypes

Maxim Norkin, Paloma Ordonez Moran

The genomes of many human CRCs have been sequenced, revealing a large number of genetic alterations. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the accumulation of these alterations are still being debated. In this study, we examined colorectal tumours ...

An autonomous microfluidic device for identification and analysis of individual clinically-relevant mammalian cells

Fabien Louis Claude Robert Jammes

Cancer represents one of the major public health challenges worldwide, representing more than 25% of all deaths in the European Union in 2014. It affects a large and growing part of the general population, with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimatin ...

Roles of Epigenetic Dysregulation in Cancer Progression and Metastasis

Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia

Nearly all the cells of an organism share the same DNA sequence or genome, and yet they show different phenotypes and carry out different functions. This diversity is made possible by a verity of molecular modifications acting on the DNA sequence that coll ...
