DNMT mRNA stability and YB-1 cooperatively regulate ABCB1 to drive cisplatin chemoresistance in cholangiocarcinoma

Tao Lin, Chenjun Huang, Chenhao Tong, Heng liu, Roman Liebe, Lungen Lu, Jun Li, Jonathan A. Lindquist, Matthias ebert, Peter Mertens, Steven Dooley, Honglei Weng

The paper identifies a YB-1-mA-DNMT regulatory axis that drives cisplatin resistance in iCCA by promoting ABCB1 expression through promoter demethylation.

TGF-β serves as a critical signaling determinant of liver progenitor cell fate and function

Chenhao Tong, Tao Lin, Han Wang, C de la Torre, Hui Liu, Chen Shao, Seddik Hammad, Roman Liebe, Matthias P Ebert, Huiguo Ding, Steven Dooley, Honglei Weng

This study identifies TGF-β as a key regulator of liver progenitor cell quiescence and activation, showing its dual role in inhibiting proliferation while being counteracted by HGF and EGF signals.
