    Unsupervised detection of fragment length signatures of circulating tumor DNA using non-negative matrix factorization

    Gabriel Renaud, Maibritt Nørgaard ... Søren Besenbacher
    Non-negative Matrix Factorization is a powerful strategy for unsupervised analysis of cell-free DNA that enables simultaneous estimation of the blood tumor fraction and the fragment length distribution of circulating tumor DNA.

    Polysome-CAGE of TCL1-driven chronic lymphocytic leukemia revealed multiple N-terminally altered epigenetic regulators and a translation stress signature

    Ariel Ogran, Tal Havkin-Solomon ... Rivka Dikstein
    Examination of the changes in the transcription start site selection in TCL1-driven chronic lymphocytic leukemia and their impact on mRNA translation revealed a marked elevation of intra-genic cryptic promoters, which are predicted to generate multiple N-terminally truncated or modified proteins.

    Robust and Efficient Assessment of Potency (REAP) as a quantitative tool for dose-response curve estimation

    Shouhao Zhou, Xinyi Liu ... J Jack Lee
    A novel approach together with a user-friendly web-based analytic tool, coined 'REAP', was proposed to improve the quantitative assessment of dose-response relationship and drug potency.

    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.
