    Augmin prevents merotelic attachments by promoting proper arrangement of bridging and kinetochore fibers

    Valentina Štimac, Isabella Koprivec ... Iva M Tolić
    STED microscopy of human mitotic spindles reveals how augmin-nucleated microtubules protect the cell from erroneous kinetochore-microtubule attachments and ensure a highly organized architecture of the spindle required for mitotic fidelity.

    Comprehensive machine-learning survival framework develops a consensus model in large-scale multicenter cohorts for pancreatic cancer

    Libo Wang, Zaoqu Liu ... Yu-ling Sun
    AIDPS derived by 76 machine-learning algorithm combinations in 13 independent multicenter cohorts exhibited superior capability than clinical traits and 86 published prognostic signatures and could serve as an ideal biomarker for stratified management and individualized treatment of pancreatic cancer.

    Continuous sensing of IFNα by hepatic endothelial cells shapes a vascular antimetastatic barrier

    Ngoc Lan Tran, Lorena Maria Ferreira ... Giovanni Sitia
    Continuous perioperative IFNα therapy stimulates hepatic endothelial cells to build up physical vascular barrier that limits tumor cell entry into the liver and promotes long-term antitumor immunity.

    Human WDR5 promotes breast cancer growth and metastasis via KMT2-independent translation regulation

    Wesley L Cai, Jocelyn Fang-Yi Chen ... Qin Yan
    The chromatin regulator WDR5 is a regulator of translation, and small molecule inhibitors or degraders of WDR5 can be used to treat triple-negative breast cancer.

    GCN2 eIF2 kinase promotes prostate cancer by maintaining amino acid homeostasis

    Ricardo A Cordova, Jagannath Misra ... Kirk A Staschke
    The ISR kinase GCN2 is critical for maintaining tumor amino acid levels to facilitate growth, suggesting a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of prostate cancer by inducing starvation for essential amino acids.

    Solute exchange through gap junctions lessens the adverse effects of inactivating mutations in metabolite-handling genes

    Stefania Monterisi, Johanna Michl ... Pawel Swietach
    Imaging studies of connexin-coupled networks of colorectal cancer cells reveal that cells carrying a genetic defect in an essential metabolic pathway can be rescued by diffusive exchange with neighboring wild-type cells via gap junctions, particularly Cx26, thereby evading negative selection.
