    Testing peripheral blood for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a minimally invasive opportunity to diagnose, characterize, and monitor the disease in individual cancer patients. ctDNA can reflect the actual tumor burden and specific genomic state of disease and thus might serve as a prognostic and predictive biomarker for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. Recent studies in various…

    Constitutively active estrogen receptor-α (ER/ESR1) mutations have been identified in approximately one third of ER+ metastatic breast cancers. Although these mutations are known mediators of endocrine resistance, their potential role in promoting metastatic disease has not yet been mechanistically addressed. In this study, we show the presence of ESR1 mutations exclusively in distant but not…

    • Study by Li et al shows ESR1 mutations only in distant, but not local recurrences in five independent #BreastCancer cohorts. This supports evidence for ESR1 mutation-mediated metastases and provides insight for preclinical therapeutic strategies. https://t.co/XEB8SKk9v9 https://t.co/XA0Ge8tsgU

    The distributions of human papillomavirus (HPV) types detected in cervical adenocarcinomas and squamous cell tumors differ. However, whether the distributions of intratypic HPV variants seen in these two histological forms of cervical disease differ is unknown. Our objective was to compare the distribution of HPV intratypic variants observed in squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and cervical tumors…

    While initiation is established as a critical step in tumorigenesis, the identity of the cell-of-origin for lung adenocarcinoma and the mechanism controlling susceptibility to initiation remain elusive. Here we show that lung tumor suppressor Gprc5a-knockout (KO) mice are susceptible to initiation of lung tumorigenesis. Bronchioalveolar stem cells (BASC) and alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells were…

    It is only recently that drugs targeting K-RAS and Tp53 missense mutations have been developed, and along with the allele specific nature of some of these drugs comes the possibility of combining them with the immunologic therapies for cancers. It has taken about 40 years since their discoveries to understand the pathways they command, how they function, and how they interact with the environment…

    Cancer therapy often results in heterogeneous responses in different metastatic lesions in the same patient. Inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity in signaling within various tumor compartments and its impact on therapy are not well characterized due to the limited sensitivity of single cell proteomic approaches. To overcome this barrier, we applied single cell mass cytometry with a customized…

    The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor (RB) is a critical regulator of E2F-dependent transcription, controlling a multitude of protumorigenic networks including but not limited to cell-cycle control. Here, genome-wide assessment of E2F1 function after RB loss in isogenic models of prostate cancer revealed unexpected repositioning and cooperation with oncogenic transcription factors, including the…

    Low oxygen concentrations (hypoxia) are detrimental to most species on Earth; thus, cells have evolved with adaptations allowing them to withstand transient hypoxia. As with other survival pathways, cancer cells have co-opted these mechanisms to keep up with the metabolic demands of rapid growth and proliferation in harsh tumor microenvironments. The most well-studied oxygen response pathway…
