    Human immunocompetent Organ-on-Chip platforms allow safety profiling of tumor-targeted T-cell bispecific antibodies

    S Jordan Kerns, Chaitra Belgur ... Lauriane Cabon
    Novel human models of the lung and intestine are described and validated as preclinical in vitro tools for predictive profiling of T-cell-bispecific antibodies with expected on-target off-tumor risk.

    NF1 regulates mesenchymal glioblastoma plasticity and aggressiveness through the AP-1 transcription factor FOSL1

    Carolina Marques, Thomas Unterkircher ... Massimo Squatrito
    Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene (NF1) signaling is causally linked to the acquisition of a mesenchymal gene expression program in gliomas through the regulation of the AP-1 transcription factor FOSL1.

    CXCL10/CXCR3 signaling contributes to an inflammatory microenvironment and its blockade enhances progression of murine pancreatic precancerous lesions

    Veethika Pandey, Alicia Fleming-Martinez ... Peter Storz
    Blockage of CXCL10/CXCR3 signaling between murine pancreatic precancerous lesion cells and inflammatory macrophages generates a tumor-promoting microenvironment.

    Autoregulatory control of microtubule binding in doublecortin-like kinase 1

    Regina L Agulto, Melissa M Rogers ... Kassandra M Ori-McKenney
    Doublecortin-like kinase 1 modulates its own kinase activity to tune its microtubule-binding affinity, providing molecular insights into a unique form of autoregulatory control over microtubule-binding activity.

    Association of human breast cancer CD44-/CD24- cells with delayed distant metastasis

    Xinbo Qiao, Yixiao Zhang ... Caigang Liu
    CD44-/CD24- breast cancer cells contribute to delayed postoperative distant metastasis by their spontaneous conversion into CD44+/CD24- breast cancer stem cells (CSCs).

    Extracellular signal-regulated kinase mediates chromatin rewiring and lineage transformation in lung cancer

    Yusuke Inoue, Ana Nikolic ... William W Lockwood
    Lineage transformation in lung cancer is dictated by ERK activity and requires permissive chromatin alterations in the context of targeted therapy resistance.

    Oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer enhances TRAIL sensitivity via death receptor 4 upregulation and lipid raft localization

    Joshua D Greenlee, Maria Lopez-Cavestany ... Michael R King
    Oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer cells exhibit unregulated death receptor 4 expression with increased receptor palmitoylation and translocation into lipid rafts, increasing their sensitivity to apoptosis via TRAIL.

    A subset of CB002 xanthine analogs bypass p53-signaling to restore a p53 transcriptome and target an S-phase cell cycle checkpoint in tumors with mutated-p53

    Liz Hernandez Borrero, David T Dicker ... Wafik S El-Deiry
    Anti-tumor properties of sub-class of xanthine analogs involve restoration of p53 pathway transcriptome, independent of p53/p73, dependent on ATF3/ATF4 and Noxa in mutated-p53 tumors and the compounds trigger an S-phase checkpoint.

    Structural basis of the effect of activating mutations on the EGF receptor

    Ioannis Galdadas, Luca Carlino ... Francesco Luigi Gervasio
    Computational methods reveal how mutations affect the conformational landscape of the kinase domain of EGFR resulting in abnormal signaling and provide a structural framework for ongoing drug discovery efforts on mutant-specific EGFR inhibition.
