    Metabolic requirement for GOT2 in pancreatic cancer depends on environmental context

    Samuel A Kerk, Lin Lin ... Costas A Lyssiotis
    Inhibition of GOT2 drives growth inhibitory reductive stress that can be rescued by electron acceptors in vitro, whereas GOT2 inhibition in endogenous or transplanted tumor models is tolerated without consequence, highlighting the importance of context when studying tumor metabolism.

    The integrated stress response remodels the microtubule-organizing center to clear unfolded proteins following proteotoxic stress

    Brian Hurwitz, Nicola Guzzi ... Elaine Fuchs
    In response to proteotoxic stress, squamous cell carcinoma cells hijack the integrated stress response to promote recovery by bolstering protection of microtubule dynamics.

    Differentiated glioma cell-derived fibromodulin activates integrin-dependent Notch signaling in endothelial cells to promote tumor angiogenesis and growth

    Shreoshi Sengupta, Mainak Mondal ... Kumaravel Somasundaram
    Comprehensive proteomic investigation and functional studies unravel an essential role of differentiated glioma cell-secreted fibromodulin (FMOD) in regulating glioblastoma tumor growth by inducing angiogenesis by activating integrin-dependent Notch signaling in endothelial cells, highlighting FMOD as a potential therapeutic target.

    Cystathionine-β-synthase is essential for AKT-induced senescence and suppresses the development of gastric cancers with PI3K/AKT activation

    Haoran Zhu, Keefe T Chan ... Jian Kang
    Cystathionine-β-synthase is a novel metabolic regulator of AKT-induced senescence and a potential tumor suppressor in gastric cancer pathogenesis which can be harnessed to target PI3K/AKT-driven cancers.

    Individualized discovery of rare cancer drivers in global network context

    Iurii Petrov, Andrey Alexeyenko
    Method NEAdriver employs knowledge from global networks to predict novel cancer driver genes in an individualized manner, which is done by accounting for mutations’ co-occurrence in each tumor genome and rigorous statistical evaluation.

    Short senolytic or senostatic interventions rescue progression of radiation-induced frailty and premature ageing in mice

    Edward Fielder, Tengfei Wan ... Satomi Miwa
    Late effects of radiation therapy in mice can be prevented by treatment with either senolytics navitoclax or quercetin plus dasatinib or the senostatic metformin.

    CREB5 reprograms FOXA1 nuclear interactions to promote resistance to androgen receptor-targeting therapies

    Justin H Hwang, Rand Arafeh ... William C Hahn
    A comprehensive molecular interrogation of CREB5 interactions identified changes in protein and chromatin interactions of FOXA1 that promoted therapy resistance in prostate cancer cells.
