    AKT Blocks SIK1-Mediated Repression of STAT3 to Promote Breast Tumorigenesis

    Mass spectrometry–based analyses demonstrated that salt-inducible kinase 1 (SIK1) bound AKT and underwent AKT-mediated phosphorylation, which compromised SIK1 tumor-suppressive functions.

    A Positive TGF-β/miR-9 Regulatory Loop Promotes the Expansion and Activity of Tumor-Initiating Cells in Breast Cancer

    A miR-9 knockout mode of mouse breast cancer MMTV-PyMT model combined with different human breast cancer cell lines were used to evaluate the effects of miR-9 on breast cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis.
    [British Journal of Pharmacology]

    Abstract

    Targeting DCLK1 Attenuates Tumor Stemness and Evokes Antitumor Immunity in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer by Inhibiting IL-6/STAT3 Signaling

    Investigators explored the impacts of doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1) on tumor cells as well as their immune microenvironment in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and potential therapeutic strategies for TNBC patients with high DCLK1 expression.

    TM4SF1 Upregulates MYH9 to Activate the NOTCH Pathway to Promote Cancer Stemness and Lenvatinib Resistance in HCC

    Researchers found through abundant in vitro and in vivo experiments which the expression of TM4SF1 was positively correlated with the progression and cancer stemness of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

    Aneuploid Subtypes of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) and Circulating Tumor-Derived Endothelial Cells (CTECs) Predict Overall Survival of Advanced Lung Cancer

    Fifty-two patients with advanced lung cancer were enrolled in this study. Using the subtraction enrichment-immunofluorescence in situ hybridization system, CTCs and CTECs derived from these patients were identified.

    Abstract

    NOTCH Pathway Inactivation Reprograms Stem-Like Oral Cancer Cells to JAK-STAT Dependent State and Provides the Opportunity of Synthetic Lethality

    Stem-like oral cancer cells were enriched in 3D-spheroids. Constitutively-active and inactive status of NOTCH pathway was achieved by genetic or pharmacological approaches.
