Here, we investigate the impact of ropivacaine hydrochloride and lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate on SaOS-2 human osteosarcoma cells using a series of <em>in vitro</em> assays. Our findings indicate that both anesthetics markedly reduce cell viability and proliferation, as measured by XTT and Colony formation assays, respectively. Mechanistic studies reveal significant disruption of mitochondrial function, evidenced by decreased membrane potential, enhanced mitochondrial superoxide production, and pronounced mitochondrial fragmentation. Concurrently, the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9) is downregulated, while pro-apoptotic markers (Caspase-3, Caspase-9, and BAX) are upregulated. Neither agent alters Vimentin or E-cadherin expression, suggesting a limited effect on epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathways. Notably, lidocaine and ropivacaine also inhibit SaOS-2 cell migration and invasion, as demonstrated by Scratch, single-cell migration, and Transwell invasion assays. Furthermore, both agents suppress alkaline phosphatase activity, a hallmark associated with osteosarcoma differentiation and metastatic potential. Taken together, these results support the conclusion that ropivacaine and lidocaine exert broad anti-tumor effects by impairing both mitochondrial homeostasis and the invasive phenotype in osteosarcoma cells. Their capacity to mitigate core hallmarks of malignancy underscores the need for further investigation into local anesthetics as potential adjuvant therapies for osteosarcoma.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12010,"journal":{"name":"European journal of cell biology","volume":"104 3","pages":"Article 151501"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144501110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result of genome duplication in zebrafish, the paralogs Ncam1a and Ncam1b arose. Our previously published findings using morpholino knockdown experiments demonstrated the essential role of Ncam1b in the development of the zebrafish lateral line system, a mechanosensory organ critical for detecting water movements. <em>ncam1b</em> morphants exhibited severe defects, including impaired primordium migration, disrupted proneuromast deposition, and reduced cell proliferation within the primordium. These defects were linked to a disrupted interaction between Ncam1b and Fgfr1a, which led to compromised proliferation and abnormal lateral line development. The current study reveals that <em>ncam1b</em> mutants, however, unlike morphants, do not show this severe phenotype. Instead, we observed subtle alterations, including altered FGF and Wnt signaling and a redistribution of proliferating cells within the primordium. Notably, <em>ncam1b</em> mutants displayed elevated levels of the paralog <em>ncam1a</em> mRNA. The knockdown of either <em>ncam1a</em> or <em>upf3a</em> in <em>ncam1b</em> mutants resulted in a phenotype resembling that of <em>ncam1b</em> morphants. Upf3a is a key regulator of genetic compensation, a well-known phenomenon in zebrafish research. This supports the hypothesis that upregulated <em>ncam1a</em> compensates for the loss of <em>ncam1b</em>, facilitating normal lateral line development. These findings emphasize the essential role of Ncam1 in zebrafish lateral line development and suggest that the retention of both paralogs, <em>ncam1a</em> and <em>ncam1b</em>, acts as a protective mechanism to ensure the preservation of critical Ncam1 functions after gene duplication.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12010,"journal":{"name":"European journal of cell biology","volume":"104 3","pages":"Article 151500"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144471038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Generally, they are derived from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) including induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs), or from tissue stem cells. The first report that created human 3D cerebral tissue arose in 2008 which is currently considered as the pioneering work of “neural organoid” (Eiraku et al., 2008, Sasai 2013a, Sasai 2013b). The neural organoids provide living human neural tissues that bring opportunities to study human development, human neuroscience, neurological and psychiatric disorders, and evolutions. The neural organoid can be said as “cut &amp; paste” of developmental biological process into a dish. Thus, understanding the background of neural organoid needs developmental knowledge, but current organoid researches looks to use organoid as a tool to study the aim that the researchers want to focus. This leads the organoid research more methodological, and the improvement or sophistication of organoid methods has still been difficult for most of new coming researchers. For this problem, this review provide insights of how to assemble organoid methods from viewpoints of development especially from morphological/structual changes. In this review, I start from the brief history of how neural organoid research emerged from developmental biology. Then I introduce some interesting aspects of neural organoid generation focusing on self-organization of regions and structures.

The device consisted of two media channels, an upper and a lower channel, and a porous membrane between these channels on which C2BBe1 intestinal epithelial cells were seeded to form a tight junction layer. Each electrode was placed in contact with both channels to continuously monitor the tight junction state. Fresh medium flow allowed bacterial numbers to be controlled and bacterial toxins to be removed, allowing co-culture of mammalian cells and bacteria.

The role for PSEN2 in cell density-dependent apoptosis and Notch signaling activation, however, remains unclear.

PSEN2 regulated the development of apoptosis, which is accompanied by increased Bcl-2 expression, decreased Bax expression, and activated PI3K/Akt pathway.
