Chemotherapy-induced senescent cancer cells engulf other cells to enhance their survival.
(ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2019-11-04)
In chemotherapy-treated breast cancer, wild-type p53 preferentially induces senescence over apoptosis, resulting in a persisting cell population constituting residual disease that drives relapse and poor patient survival ...
Klotho: A Major Shareholder in Vascular Aging Enterprises.
(MDPI, 2019-09-19)
Accelerated vascular aging is a condition that occurs as a complication of several highly prevalent inflammatory conditions such as chronic kidney disease, cancer, HIV infection and diabetes. Age-associated vascular ...
VGLL3 operates via TEAD1, TEAD3 and TEAD4 to influence myogenesis in skeletal muscle.
(COMPANY BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2019-07-05)
VGLL proteins are transcriptional co-factors that bind TEAD family transcription factors to regulate events ranging from wing development in fly, to muscle fibre composition and immune function in mice. Here, we characterise ...
IGF signalling in germ cells and testicular germ cell tumours: roles and therapeutic approaches.
(WILEY, 2019-07-01)
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis plays key roles in normal tissue growth and development as well as in the progression of several tumour types and their subsequent growth and progression to a metastatic phenotype. ...
The oncolytic virus Delta-24-RGD elicits an antitumor effect in pediatric glioma and DIPG mouse models.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-05-28)
Pediatric high-grade glioma (pHGG) and diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs) are aggressive pediatric brain tumors in desperate need of a curative treatment. Oncolytic virotherapy is emerging as a solid therapeutic ...
ATMIN Is a Tumor Suppressor Gene in Lung Adenocarcinoma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-10-15)
Tumor cells proliferate rapidly and thus are frequently subjected to replication stress and the risk of incomplete duplication of the genome. Fragile sites are replicated late, making them more vulnerable to damage when ...
Suppression of interferon gene expression overcomes resistance to MEK inhibition in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-03-07)
Despite showing clinical activity in BRAF-mutant melanoma, the MEK inhibitor (MEKi) trametinib has failed to show clinical benefit in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer. To identify mechanisms of resistance to MEKi, we employed ...
A novel tankyrase inhibitor, MSC2504877, enhances the effects of clinical CDK4/6 inhibitors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-01-17)
Inhibition of the PARP superfamily tankyrase enzymes suppresses Wnt/β-catenin signalling in tumour cells. Here, we describe here a novel, drug-like small molecule inhibitor of tankyrase MSC2504877 that inhibits the growth ...
