    HOXA9 promotes MYC-mediated leukemogenesis by maintaining gene expression for multiple anti-apoptotic pathways

    Ryo Miyamoto, Akinori Kanai ... Akihiko Yokoyama
    HOXA9 is a transcriptional maintenance factor for anti-apoptotic genes that accelerate MYC-driven leukemia.

    Use of signals of positive and negative selection to distinguish cancer genes and passenger genes

    László Bányai, Maria Trexler ... László Patthy
    In contrast with earlier conclusions, negative selection has a major role in cancer evolution.

    Targeting mutant RAS in patient-derived colorectal cancer organoids by combinatorial drug screening

    Carla S Verissimo, René M Overmeer ... Hugo J Snippert
    Libraries of patient-derived tumor organoids are a reliable and scalable model system that can help identify and optimize targeted therapies in a pre-clinical setting.

    PAX8 regulon in human ovarian cancer links lineage dependency with epigenetic vulnerability to HDAC inhibitors

    Kaixuan Shi, Xia Yin ... Guanglei Zhuang
    A functional ovarian-specific PAX8-centric regulon is susceptible to FDA-approved HDAC inhibitors, providing the rationale to target human cancers driven by lineage-survival oncogenes with epigenetic therapeutics perturbing the enhancer topology.

    ahctf1 and kras mutations combine to amplify oncogenic stress and restrict liver overgrowth in a zebrafish model of hepatocellular carcinoma

    Kimberly J Morgan, Karen Doggett ... Joan K Heath
    ELYS, a multifunctional protein with critical roles in the cell cycle, is essential for the vigorous proliferation and survival of difficult-to-treat cancers carrying mutations in the KRAS oncogene, making it a compelling target for novel drug treatments.

    Mechanism and preclinical prevention of increased breast cancer risk caused by pregnancy

    Svasti Haricharan, Jie Dong ... Yi Li
    The transcription factor STAT5 mediates the increased breast cancer risk associated with a late age pregnancy, but intermittent anti-STAT5 treatment can lower this risk and thus prevent breast cancer.
