Nongenetic Evolution Drives Lung Adenocarcinoma Spatial Heterogeneity and Progression

Elisa Oricchio, Aaron Simone Petruzzella, Elena Battistello, Elie Charles Eugène Dheilly

Cancer evolution determines molecular and morphologic intratumor heterogeneity and challenges the design of effective treatments. In lung adenocarcinoma, disease progression and prognosis are associated with the appearance of morphologically diverse tumor ...

Cathepsin S Regulates Antigen Processing and T Cell Activity in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, George Coukos, Elisa Oricchio, Natalya Katanayeva, Julien Racle, Jessica Sordet, Sarah Wehrle, Elena Battistello, Stephanie Jocelyne Sungalee, Elie Charles Eugène Dheilly

Genomic alterations in cancer cells can influence the immune system to favor tumor growth. In non-Hodgkin lymphoma, physiological interactions between B cells and the germinal center microenvironment are coopted to sustain cancer cell proliferation. We fou ...

Novel therapeutic strategies targeting the B-cell receptor signaling and antigen presentation pathways in non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Elena Battistello

B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (B-NHLs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors deriving from the malignant transformation of B cells. The two most common B-NHL subtypes are follicular lymphoma (FL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which account togeth ...

EZH2 oncogenic mutations drive epigenetic, transcriptional, and structural changes within chromatin domains

Suliana Manley, Elisa Oricchio, Kyle Michael Douglass, Natalya Katanayeva, Daniele Tavernari, Elena Battistello, Stephanie Jocelyne Sungalee, Maria Christine Donaldson, Timo Henry René Rey, Giovanni Ciriello

Chromatin is organized into topologically associating domains (TADs) enriched in distinct histone marks. In cancer, gain-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the enhancer of zeste homolog 2 protein (EZH2) lead to a genome-wide increase in histone-3 L ...

Pan-SRC kinase inhibition blocks B-cell receptor oncogenic signaling in non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Olivier Michielin, Elisa Oricchio, Daniele Tavernari, Natalya Katanayeva, Elena Battistello, Maria Christine Donaldson, Elie Charles Eugène Dheilly, Giovanni Ciriello

Genetic and epigenetic inactivation of SESTRIN1 controls mTORC1 and response to EZH2 inhibition in follicular lymphoma

Elisa Oricchio, Natalya Katanayeva, Elena Battistello, Maria Christine Donaldson, Stephanie Jocelyne Sungalee, Giovanni Ciriello

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an incurable form of B cell lymphoma. Genomic studies have cataloged common genetic lesions in FL such as translocation t(14;18), frequent losses of chromosome 6q, and mutations in epigenetic regulators such as EZH2 Using a focu ...

Conditional Selection of Genomic Alterations Dictates Cancer Evolution and Oncogenic Dependencies

Elisa Oricchio, Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia, Elena Battistello, Daniele Tavernari, Stephanie Jocelyne Sungalee, Franck Claude Raynaud, Giovanni Ciriello, Marco Mina, Titouan Laessle

Cancer evolves through the emergence and selection of molecular alterations. Cancer genome profiling has revealed that specific events are more or less likely to be co-selected, suggesting that the selection of one event depends on the others. However, the ...
