Tumor-induced reprogramming of microglia to a DAM phenotype facilitates brain metastasis
This is an interesting one.
"metabolic-cytoskeletal axis that determines cellular polarity or a/symmetry prior to the onset of cell division. This suggests that polarity loss during cytokine-driven culture is a regulated feature of early cellular adaptation, rather than an inevitable consequence of cell-cycle entry"
The 2024 Australian of the Year Professor Richard Scolyer has died. In his final message he urged all Australians to "pursue their dreams and passion with humility, love and compassion".
“Interestingly, we examined O-GlcNAcylation and hyaluronan production, both of which draw from the same UDP-GlcNAc pool as N-linked glycosylation, and observed a mild decrease in the brain for both pathways”
