MPP7, EMT, and Polarity in Ovarian Cancer
2026-09-16
This study identifies MPP7 as an overexpressed epithelial ovarian cancer factor associated with poor prognosis and links its activity to proliferation, migration, invasion, EMT, and cell-polarity changes. By combining patient-data analysis, tissue immunohistochemistry, cellular perturbation, polarity imaging, transcriptomics, and Western blotting, the work proposes MPP7–Wnt/β-catenin signaling as a mechanistic axis for further validation.

Angiotensin I/II (1-5): RAS Workflow Guide
2026-09-15
Angiotensin I/II (1-5) provides a defined Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile peptide fragment for controlled renin-angiotensin system research involving blood pressure regulation, renal physiology, and aldosterone signaling. It should be used within cardiovascular or renal workflows with solvent, storage, and vehicle controls, not as a general-purpose peptide for unrelated signaling assays.
