    FoxO suppresses endoplasmic reticulum stress to inhibit growth of Tsc1-deficient tissues under nutrient restriction

    Avantika Gupta, Hugo Stocker
    Transcriptomic and genetic analyses of FoxO target genes reveal a key function of ER-associated protein degradation in growth regulation of Tsc1-deficient tissues.

    Analysis of pulsed cisplatin signalling dynamics identifies effectors of resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

    Jordan F Hastings, Alvaro Gonzalez Rajal ... David R Croucher
    Overlaying single cell readouts of cell cycle and apoptosis onto a multidimensional analysis of pulsed cisplatin signalling dynamics reveals targetable mechanisms of platinum resistance in lung adenocarcinoma.

    Novel insights into breast cancer copy number genetic heterogeneity revealed by single-cell genome sequencing

    Timour Baslan, Jude Kendall ... James Hicks
    Copy number alteration heterogeneity exists in many shapes and forms in breast cancer genomes and single-cell genomics is a powerful tool to further our understanding of its nature and significance.

    Squamous trans-differentiation of pancreatic cancer cells promotes stromal inflammation

    Tim DD Somerville, Giulia Biffi ... Christopher R Vakoc
    A major consequence of ductal-to-squamous lineage transition in pancreatic cancer cells is to augment inflammation, which may explain the exceptionally poor clinical outcomes of squamous-subtype tumors.

    The tumor microenvironment as a metabolic barrier to effector T cells and immunotherapy

    Aaron R Lim, W Kimryn Rathmell, Jeffrey C Rathmell
    Diverse components of the tumor microenvironment affect T cell metabolism in ways that are crucial to improving immunotherapy.

    Collective forces of tumor spheroids in three-dimensional biopolymer networks

    Christoph Mark, Thomas J Grundy ... Ben Fabry
    The forces that multicellular tumor aggregates exert on their environment lead to non-linear, scale-invariant tissue deformations far away from the tumor, which can be exploited to quantify its collective contractility.

    TMEM87a/Elkin1, a component of a novel mechanoelectrical transduction pathway, modulates melanoma adhesion and migration

    Amrutha Patkunarajah, Jeffrey H Stear ... Kate Poole
    A novel mechanoelectrical transduction pathway can regulate the interactions of melanoma cells and their surrounding microenvironment, impacting both migration and cell dissociation from organotypic spheroids.
