Tissue microarrays, a high-throughout approach to quantifying biomarkers used in hundreds of cancer studies every year, are susceptible to batch effects that can alter results but that are readily addressable.
Infrared high-pulse-energy low-pulse-repetition-rate excitation advances deep intravital microscopy in strongly scattering tissues such as skin tumors and thick bone, thereby bringing previously inaccessible tumor areas in reach with subcellular resolution.
A multiomics, systems biology approach was used to define the metabolic and signaling programs that drive the fate and function of pancreatic tumor-associated macrophages.

Over 40% of CDKN2A variants of uncertain significance identified in patients with pancreatic cancer are functionally deleterious and can be reclassified as likely pathogenic with implications for care of patients and their relatives.
Biochemical, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses reveal that protein arginine methyltransferases post-transcriptionally regulate intron detention—introns that persist in nuclear polyadenylated RNA—through methylation of RNA splicing and processing factors.

G alpha q/11 signaling can either promote or inhibit melanocyte growth through a reversible switch that is controlled by the microenvironment and that shapes the mutational diversity of melanoma subtypes.

Pancreatic cancers can utilize hyaluronic acid, an abundant extracellular matrix component in the tumor microenvironment, to fuel cancer cell metabolism and growth.
A novel multi-hormones secreting chromaffin-like cell type was identified using single-cell RNA sequencing, suggesting the molecular mechanism of ectopic ACTH and CRH pheochromocytoma associated with Cushing’s syndrome.
