Mendelian randomization suggests the possibility that the observational effects of obesity and related metabolic traits in head and neck cancer risk are overestimated.
Cancer stem cells that have undergone EMT are identified in the region surrounding metastatic human oral tumours in a retrospective cohort study, and these are predictive of metastatic outcome in an image-based machine learning approach.

Microbial populations are continuous along the gastrointestinal tract, with increased transmission in colorectal cancer and rheumatoid arthritis patients.
Multifaceted properties of the water-soluble derivative of antibiotic heliomycin enable it to offer greater antitumor value than its parent compound by inhibiting the tNOX-NAD+-SIRT1 axis to induce apoptosis.
The identification of alternative splicing targets and upstream RNA-binding proteins that underlie EMT and metastasis in colon cancer stratifies patients according to their overall survival and provide new insights on the function of specific isoforms along the migrating cancer stem cell sequence.
A certain type of primary cancer may cause another second primary cancer which would be of clinical importance to make a personalized screening plan for certain primary cancer patients.
SHH signaling acts through FOXF1/2 transcription factors and antagonizes BMP signaling to specify oral fate and pattern the oral-aboral axis of the mandibular arch to ensure proper formation of jaws.

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.
