Article Synopsis
  • Metastatic disease is a major cause of cancer-related deaths, yet its tumor microenvironment is not well understood due to technical challenges in studying it.
  • This research created a comprehensive map of 67 tumor biopsies from 60 metastatic breast cancer patients, using advanced techniques like single-cell RNA sequencing and various spatial expression assays to analyze tumor characteristics.
  • Key findings included identifying different macrophage spatial patterns, three phenotypes of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and gene expression linked to T cell presence or absence, highlighting the study's potential for clinical insights.

Flexible electrode materials, particularly indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET), have attracted the attention of researchers for a wide variety of applications. However, there has been limited attention to the effects of electrode flexibility during electrochemical processes. In this research article, we studied how bending commercially available ITO-PET electrodes impacts the electrodeposition process of polyaniline (PANI).

Article Synopsis
  • - Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major cause of kidney failure linked to diabetes and obesity, but effective treatments to slow its progression are currently unavailable.
  • - Research on single-cell transcriptomic profiles from DKD patients and mouse models reveals a growing population of macrophages expressing TREM2 in mice fed a high-fat diet, which correlates with obesity and diabetes.
  • - In mice lacking TREM2, increased kidney damage and cell injury were observed, indicating that boosting TREM2 macrophages could be a promising therapeutic approach for DKD.
