Unlabelled: Cancer stem/tumor-initiating cells display stress tolerance and metabolic flexibility to survive in a harsh environment with limited nutrient and oxygen availability. The molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon could provide targets to prevent metabolic adaptation and halt cancer progression. Here, we showed in cultured cells and live human surgical biopsies of non-small cell lung cancer that nutrient stress drives the expression of the epithelial cancer stem cell marker integrin αvβ3 via upregulation of the β3 subunit, resulting in a metabolic reprogramming cascade that allows tumor cells to thrive despite a nutrient-limiting environment.

Research conducted using murine preclinical models of osteoarthritis (OA) over the last three decades has brought forth many exciting developments showcasing mechanisms and pathways that drive disease pathogenesis. These models have identified therapeutic targets that can be modulated via innovative biologicals and pharmaceuticals. However, many of these approaches have failed to translate to humans and reach the clinic.

Rationale: CC16 (Club Cell Secretory Protein) is a protein produced by club cells and other non-ciliated epithelial cells within the lungs. CC16 has been shown to protect against the development of obstructive lung diseases and attenuate pulmonary pathogen burden. Despite recent advances in understanding CC16 effects in circulation, the biological mechanisms of CC16 in pulmonary epithelial responses have not been elucidated.
