    Overcoming myelosuppression due to synthetic lethal toxicity for FLT3-targeted acute myeloid leukemia therapy

    Alexander A Warkentin, Michael S Lopez ... Kevan M Shokat
    Anti-targets are proteins that cause problems when inhibited along with an intended target and our novel chemical strategy affords unprecedented selectivity in the context of FLT3 vs. KIT inhibition for treatment of a devastating blood cancer.

    Combined ALK and MDM2 inhibition increases antitumor activity and overcomes resistance in human ALK mutant neuroblastoma cell lines and xenograft models

    Hui Qin Wang, Ensar Halilovic ... Fang Li
    The combination of ceritinib with CGM097 demonstrates remarkable antitumor activity in TP53 wild-type neuroblastoma models with ALK aberrations and is able to overcome the resistance acquired during ceritinib treatment.

    Pooled genome-wide CRISPR activation screening for rapamycin resistance genes in Drosophila cells

    Baolong Xia, Raghuvir Viswanatha ... Norbert Perrimon
    A novel genome-wide transcriptional activation screening in Drosophila cells revealed the activation of InR-Akt-mTOR pathway by cholesterol in plasma membrane to confer resistance to Rapamycin.

    Identification of CD133+ intercellsomes in intercellular communication to offset intracellular signal deficit

    Kota Kaneko, Yan Liang ... Gen-Sheng Feng
    A new type of mRNAs-loaded CD133+ vesicles, named intercellsome, mediate cell-cell communications to compensate intracellular proliferative signal deficit, representing a previously unrecognized mechanism of cell proliferation under stress.
