Tumor control and trigeminal dysfunction improvement after stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal schwannomas: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Trigeminal nerve schwannomas (TS) are uncommon intracranial tumors, frequently presenting with debilitating trigeminal and/or oculomotor nerve dysfunction. While surgical resection has been described, its morbidity and mortality rates are non-negligible. S ...

Tumor-Promoting Ly-6G(+) SiglecF(high) Cells Are Mature and Long-Lived Neutrophils

Etienne Meylan

Myeloid cells co-expressing the markers CD11b, Ly-6G, and SiglecF can be found in large numbers in murine lung adenocarcinomas and accelerate cancer growth by fostering tumor cell invasion, angiogenesis, and immunosuppression; however, some of these cells' ...

Genome-wide Screens Implicate Loss of Cullin Ring Ligase 3 in Persistent Proliferation and Genome Instability in TP53-Deficient Cells

Sebastian Martin Waszak, Ruxandra-Andreea Lambuta

TP53 deficiency is the most common alteration in cancer; however, this alone is typically insufficient to drive tumorigenesis. To identify genes promoting tumorigenesis in combination with TP53 deficiency, we perform genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen ...

A third Notch in colorectal cancer progression and metastasis

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch

In this issue of JEM, Varga et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20191515) describe a mouse model of invasive and metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) closely resembling the human consensus molecular subtype (CMS) 4 associated with the poorest overall surviva ...

In vivo detection of gamma-glutamyl-transferase up-regulation in glioma using hyperpolarized gamma-glutamyl-[1-C-13]glycine

Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Glutathione (GSH) is often upregulated in cancer, where it serves to mitigate oxidative stress. gamma-glutamyl-transferase (GGT) is a key enzyme in GSH homeostasis, and compared to normal brain its expression is elevated in tumors, including in primary gli ...

Endogenous retroviruses drive KRAB zinc-finger protein family expression for tumor suppression

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli, Alexandre Coudray

Gene expression aberration is a hallmark of cancers, but the mechanisms underlying such aberrations remain unclear. Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are genomic repetitive elements that potentially function as enhancers. Since numerous HERVs are epige ...

Roles of Epigenetic Dysregulation in Cancer Progression and Metastasis

Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia

Nearly all the cells of an organism share the same DNA sequence or genome, and yet they show different phenotypes and carry out different functions. This diversity is made possible by a verity of molecular modifications acting on the DNA sequence that coll ...

Somatic Mitochondrial DNA Point Mutations Used as Biomarkers to Demonstrate Genomic Heterogeneity in Primary Prostate Cancer

Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Primary prostate tumor heterogeneity is poorly understood, leaving research efforts with challenges regarding the initiation and advancement of the disease. The growth of tumor cells is accompanied by mutations in nuclear and in mitochondrial genomes. Thus ...

Pharmacological disruption of the Notch transcription factor complex

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch, Nadine Fournier, Jelena Zaric, Rajwinder Lehal, Linlin Cao, Michele Vigolo

Notch pathway signaling is implicated in several human cancers. Aberrant activation and mutations of Notch signaling components are linked to tumor initiation, maintenance, and resistance to cancer therapy. Several strategies, such as monoclonal antibodies ...

Tracing of Human Tumor Cell Lineages by Mitochondrial Mutations

Stephan Morgenthaler, Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Background Previous studies have shown the value in studying lineage tracing in slices of human tumors. However, a tumor is not a two-dimensional structure and to better understand how a tumor, and its corresponding metastasis grow, a three-dimensional (3- ...
