Osteosarcoma cells exhibit functional interactions with stromal cells, fostering a lung microenvironment conducive to the establishment of metastatic tumor cells
CONCLUSIONS: Our assessment focused on two complementary tumor capabilities crucial to metastatic spread, emphasizing the significance of inherent cell features. The findings underscore the pivotal role of signaling integration within the niche, with a complex interplay of migratory responses among established OS cells in the lungs, prometastatic OS cells in the primary tumor, and circulating MSCs. Pulmonary metastases continue to be a significant factor contributing to OS mortality. Understanding these mechanisms and identifying differentially expressed genes is essential for pinpointing markers and targets to manage meta...

Living with a tumor: A case of osteosarcoma involving the medullary region in Phrynops cf. P. geoffroanus (Testudines: Chelidae)
Anat Rec (Hoboken). 2024 Mar 28. doi: 10.1002/ar.25437. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe individual Geoffroy's side-necked turtle, Phrynops cf. P. geoffroanus, was diagnosed postmortem with osteosarcoma associated with the forelimb through morphological and histological analysis. Osteosarcoma stands as the most prevalent primary malignant bone tumor in tetrapods. The tumor presents itself as a large mass in the distal epiphysis, characterized by spicular outgrowths and a rugose external texture. Histologically, the afflicted humerus displayed a high degree of vascularity and exhibited an extensive bone resorption process ...

KLF transcription factors in bone diseases
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18278. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18278.ABSTRACTKrüppel-like factors (KLFs) are crucial in the development of bone disease. They are a family of zinc finger transcription factors that are unusual in containing three highly conserved zinc finger structural domains interacting with DNA. It has been discovered that it engages in various cell functions, including proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, stemness, invasion and migration, and is crucial for the development of human tissues. In recent years, the role of KLFs in bone physiology and pathology has received adequate attention. In addition to regul...

Dysregulated MicroRNAs and long non-coding RNAs associated with extracellular matrix stiffness

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExtracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness regulates development and homeostasis in vivo and affects both physiological and pathological processes. A variety of studies have demonstrated that mRNAs, such as Piezo1, integrin β1, and Yes-associated protein (YAP)/tafazzin (TAZ), can sense the mechanical signals induced by ECM stiffness and transmit them from the extracellular space into the cytoplasm. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), have been reported to play important roles in ...

Ewing Sarcoma-Chest Wall Reconstruction Following Resection of Rare Primary Chest Wall Tumor
We report the case of a 26-year-old man who was found to have a right lung mass extending into his anterolateral chest wall after presenting to the hospital for evaluation of unremitting chest pain. Biopsy was performed and the patient diagnosed with ES. After completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the patient underwent resection of the right chest wall mass. The chest wall was reconstructed in a novel fashion with titanium plates and a reinforced tissue matrix patch. Due to a paucity of cases, no treatment or reconstruction algorithm currently exists for management of these malignancies.PMID:38532255 | DOI:10.1177/000313...
