Macrophage-derived foam cell plays a pivotal role in the plaque formation and rupture during the progression of atherosclerosis. Foam cells are destined to divergent cell fate and functions in response to external stimuli based on their internal states, which however is hidden in the traditional ...
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are recognized as direct seeds of metastasis. However, CTC count may not be the 'best' indicator of metastatic risk because their heterogeneity is generally neglected. In this study, we develop a molecular typing system to predict colorectal cancer metastasis potent...
In this study, five human cell lines (A2780, Chang liver, HEK293T, HeLa, and HepG2) were used as models and exposed to mixtures of neonicotinoids (NEOs) and their metabolites. The mixture concentrations were prepared based on human biomonitoring data to reflect the actual detected levels of NEOs ...
