Generation of transplantable and biologically responsive colonic tissue from human induced pluripotent stem cells using a rapid co-differentiation platform.

This paper develops a co-differentiation platform using human iPSCs to generate transplantable colonic tissue that mimics native mucosa and responds to biological signals.

N-glycosylation of CD24 mediates cell motility but inhibits cell proliferation in colorectal cancer

This study shows that N-glycosylation of CD24 enhances cell motility but inhibits proliferation in colorectal cancer by modulating downstream targets and epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

Green Fabricated Zinc Oxide Nanoformulated Media Enhanced Callus Induction and Regeneration Dynamics of Panicum virgatum L.

This study uses zinc oxide nanoparticles to enhance callus induction and regeneration in Panicum virgatum, showing optimal results at 30 mg/L with 70-76% regeneration frequency.

Investigating TNS4 in the Colorectal Tumour Microenvironment Using 3D Spheroid Models of Invasion

This study investigates TNS4's role in colorectal cancer using 3D spheroid models, finding that TNS4 knockdown increases proliferation, reduces invasion, and enhances sensitivity to Gefitinib.

The power of model-to-crop translation illustrated by reducing seed loss from pod shatter in oilseed rape

The paper translates genetic insights from Arabidopsis to oilseed rape to reduce seed loss from pod shatter, increasing yield through gene mutation and software development.

TGFβ1-induced cell motility is mediated through Cten in colorectal cancer

This study shows TGFβ1 induces cell motility and EMT in CRC via Cten, as evidenced by changes in Cten and EMT marker expression, and altered migration/invasion in CRC cell lines.
