    Synthetic lethality between the cohesin subunits STAG1 and STAG2 in diverse cancer contexts

    Petra van der Lelij, Simone Lieb ... Mark Petronczki
    STAG1 has been identified as a hardwired genetic dependency of cancer cells harbouring mutations in the cohesin subunit and emerging major tumor suppressor STAG2 holds the promise for the development of selective therapeutics.

    The identification of dual protective agents against cisplatin-induced oto- and nephrotoxicity using the zebrafish model

    Jaime N Wertman, Nicole Melong ... Jason N Berman
    L-mimosine and dopamine protect against cisplatin-induced oto- and nephrotoxicity in zebrafish and human cell line models.

    Targeting RAS-driven human cancer cells with antibodies to upregulated and essential cell-surface proteins

    Alexander J Martinko, Charles Truillet ... James A Wells
    Proteomics and functional genomics coupled to an antibody discovery pipeline revealed the influence of oncogenic RAS signaling on the cell-surface proteome and resulted in the discovery of potential therapeutic targets for RAS-driven cancers.

    Buffered Qualitative Stability explains the robustness and evolvability of transcriptional networks

    Luca Albergante, J Julian Blow, Timothy J Newman
    The theory of Buffered Qualitative Stability uses the importance of biological robustness to explain many features of gene regulatory networks in a wide range of organisms, and has implications for diverse biological phenomena including the ability of bacteria and cancer cells to ‘loosen’ their robustness and hence evade treatment.

    TRPM5-mediated calcium uptake regulates mucin secretion from human colon goblet cells

    Sandra Mitrovic, Cristina Nogueira ... Vivek Malhotra
    Goblet cells secrete mucins—which are key components of mucus—in a process that is regulated by calcium ions, which enter the goblet cells via a mechanism involving a channel protein called TRPM5.

    The theory of massively repeated evolution and full identifications of cancer-driving nucleotides (CDNs)

    Lingjie Zhang, Tong Deng ... Chung-I Wu
    A mathematical model shows that mutations that recur even modestly among cancer patients are cancer driving nucleotides that can be exhaustively identified to serve as targets of cancer therapy.

    A survey of optimal strategy for signature-based drug repositioning and an application to liver cancer

    Chen Yang, Hailin Zhang ... Hui Wang
    Computational and experimental analyses show that homoharringtonine may be repurposed as an agent for the treatment and prevention of liver cancer.

    The histone H3K9 demethylase KDM3A promotes anoikis by transcriptionally activating pro-apoptotic genes BNIP3 and BNIP3L

    Victoria E Pedanou, Stéphane Gobeil ... Michael R Green
    A large-scale RNA interference screen uncovers a new transcriptional regulatory program involving the histone H3 demethylase KDM3A, which mediates detachment-induced apoptosis (anoikis) in breast epithelial cells.

    Human primed ILCPs support endothelial activation through NF-κB signaling

    Giulia Vanoni, Giuseppe Ercolano ... Sara Trabanelli
    Circulating human primed innate lymphoid cell precursors have the potential to functionally induce adhesion molecules' expression in endothelial cells and possibly support the immune cells' infiltration into the tumor site.

    The selective estrogen receptor downregulator GDC-0810 is efficacious in diverse models of ER+ breast cancer

    James D Joseph, Beatrice Darimont ... Jeffrey H Hager
    GDC-0810 is a novel, orally bioavailable SERD that exhibits robust pre-clinical activity in models of ER+ breast cancer, including models of tamoxifen resistance, and those that express the ERα mutations, ER.Y537S and ER.D538G.
