Cancer hallmarks intersect with neuroscience in the tumor microenvironment

Douglas Hanahan

The mechanisms underlying the multistep process of tumorigenesis can be distilled into a logical framework involving the acquisition of functional capabilities, the so-called hallmarks of cancer, which are collectively envisaged to be necessary for maligna ...

Medical and Personal Characteristics Can Predict the Risk of Lung Metastasis

Michele De Palma, Nahal Mansouri

Aims: Understanding the correlations between underlying medical and personal characteristics of a patient with cancer and the risk of lung metastasis may improve clinical management and outcomes. We used machine learning methodologies to predict the risk o ...

Mechanical Immunoengineering of T Cells for Enhanced Cancer Immunotherapy

Kewen Lei

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally. Immunotherapy represents one of the most promising cancer treatments inducing complete and durable responses in a fraction of cancer patients. Despite the unprecedented clinical success achieved by T c ...

Krab-containing zinc finger protein and cancer

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli

The present invention provides methods for detecting cancer as well as agents and compositions for treating cancer by modulating the expression and/or activity of one or more i) KRAB-containing zinc finger protein (KZFP), ii) mRNA encoding a KZFP, and/or i ...

Non-genomic activation of the AKT-mTOR pathway by the mitochondrial stress response in thyroid cancer

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Dongryeol Ryu

Cancer progression is associated with metabolic reprogramming and causes significant intracellular stress; however, the mechanisms that link cellular stress and growth signalling are not fully understood. Here, we identified a mechanism that couples the mi ...
