    GPCR signaling inhibits mTORC1 via PKA phosphorylation of Raptor

    Jenna L Jewell, Vivian Fu ... Kun-Liang Guan
    Protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylates Raptor and inhibits mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity.

    Quantification of microenvironmental metabolites in murine cancers reveals determinants of tumor nutrient availability

    Mark R Sullivan, Laura V Danai ... Alexander Muir
    The nutrients available in some tumors and the factors that influence tumor nutrient availability are characterized, which provides insight into the metabolic constraints of the tumor microenvironment.

    Opto-magnetic capture of individual cells based on visual phenotypes

    Loïc Binan, François Bélanger ... Santiago Costantino
    Single cells from a large heterogeneous population can be identified, isolated and clonally expanded using commonly available microscopy equipment and simple reagents, based solely on visual characteristics.

    A generalized theory of age-dependent carcinogenesis

    Andrii Rozhok, James DeGregori
    The multi-stage model of carcinogenesis requires the incorporation of aging-dependent somatic selection and life history-dependent evolution of species-specific tumor suppressor mechanisms in order to generalize carcinogenesis across tissues and species.

    NLRP12 suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma via downregulation of cJun N-terminal kinase activation in the hepatocyte

    SM Nashir Udden, Youn-Tae Kwak ... Hasan Zaki
    NOD-like receptor NLRP12 is a critical regulator of hepatocyte proliferation and its activation could be therapeutically used to suppress hepatocellular carcinoma.

    Abnormal oxidative metabolism in a quiet genomic background underlies clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma

    Jianing Xu, Ed Reznik ... A Ari Hakimi
    A distinct class of kidney tumors is characterized not by patterns of somatic mutations, but by a distinct metabolism.

    Flura-seq identifies organ-specific metabolic adaptations during early metastatic colonization

    Harihar Basnet, Lin Tian ... Joan Massagué
    Development and application of highly sensitive in situ transcriptomics method, Flura-seq, in identifying dynamic organ-specific transcriptomes in early stage breast cancer metastasis have been described.

    Renal medullary carcinomas depend upon SMARCB1 loss and are sensitive to proteasome inhibition

    Andrew L Hong, Yuen-Yi Tseng ... William C Hahn
    Faithful models of RMC require SMARCB1 loss for survival, and genetic and small-molecule screens identify inhibition of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) as a potential therapeutic approach for SMARCB1 deficient cancers.
