Fate Map** of Cancer Cells in Metastatic Lymph Nodes Using Photoconvertible Proteins
The lymph node microenvironment is extremely dynamic and responds to immune stimuli in the host by reprogramming immune, stromal, and endothelial cells. In normal physiological conditions, the lymph node will ...

Open AccessASPirin Intervention for the REDuction of colorectal cancer risk (ASPIRED): a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
Although aspirin is recommended for the prevention of colorectal cancer, the specific individuals for whom the benefits outweigh the risks are not clearly defined. Moreover, the precise mechanisms by which asp...

High-fat diet enhances stemness and tumorigenicity of intestinal progenitors
Little is known about how pro-obesity diets regulate tissue stem and progenitor cell function. Here we show that high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity augments the numbers and function of Lgr5+ intestinal stem cell...

Cell Motility and Cytoskeletal Regulation in Invasion and Metastasis
Cell motility and chemotaxis can make important contributions to the metastatic cascade. Cell migration pathways in general play significant roles in a variety of physiological processes that can be “hijacked”...
