Delineating the Role of Osteoprotegerin as a Marker of Breast Cancer Risk among Women with a BRCA1 Mutation

[Hereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice] Scientists provide a review of the emerging preclinical and epidemiologic evidence implicating the dysregulation of progesterone-mediated receptor activator of nuclear factor κB signaling in the pathogenesis of BRCA1-associated breast cancer.

LncRNA PCAT1 Activates SOX2 and Suppresses Radioimmune Responses via Regulating cGAS/STING Signaling in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

[Clinical and Translational Medicine] Investigators explored the impacts of prostate cancer-associated ncRNA transcripts 1 (PCAT1) on tumorigenesis and radioimmune responses and the underlying molecular mechanisms in NSCLC.

Progenitor Potential of Lung Epithelial Organoid Cells in a Transplantation Model

[Cell Reports] The authors transplanted organoid cells derived from alveolar type II cells enriched by SCA1-negative status or multipotent SCA1-positive progenitor cells into injured mouse lungs.

Caspase-9b Drives Cellular Transformation, Lung Inflammation, and Lung Tumorigenesis

[Molecular Cancer Research] A transgenic mouse model expressing human Caspase-9b in the lung pneumocytes developed inflammatory lung lesions, which correlated with enhanced activation of the NF-κB pathway and increased influx of immunosuppressive MDSCs in contrast to wild-type mice.

Activity of Adagrasib (MRTX849) in Brain Metastases: Preclinical Models and Clinical Data from Patients with KRASG12C-Mutant Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

[Clinical Cancer Research] A retrospective database query identified patients with KRAS-mutant NSCLC to understand their propensity to develop brain metastases.

Cancer Stem-Like Cells Evade CD8+CD103+ Tumor-Resident Memory T (TRM) Lymphocytes by Initiating an Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition Program in a Human Lung Tumor Mode

[Journal For Immunotherapy of Cancer] Researchers supported the rational design of immunotherapeutic strategies targeting cancer stem cells to optimize their responsiveness to local CD8+CD103+ TRM cells for more efficient anticancer treatments.

ACSS1-Dependent Acetate Utilization Rewires Mitochondrial Metabolism to Support AML and Melanoma Tumor Growth and Metastasis

[Cell Reports] Scientists reported that acetyl-CoA synthetases (ACSS) 1 and 2 were differentially expressed in cancer. ACSS1 knockdown decreased acute myeloid leukemia burden in vivo and inhibited melanoma tumor and metastatic growth.

Sanofi, A*STAR, and the National Skin Centre Partner to Advance Research in Acne Treatment

[A*STAR] Sanofi, the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), and the National Skin Centre Singapore established a Memorandum of Understanding to advance research in acne treatment. This collaboration will encompass a Phase I clinical study in patients with mild acne.

RTI Surgical Announces First Patient Enrolled in Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for Cortiva® Allograft Dermis in Breast Reconstruction

[RTI Surgical] RTI Surgical announced the enrollment of the first patient in ADMIRE. This IDE study is designed to confirm the safety and effectiveness of Cortiva® Allograft Dermis in implant-based breast reconstruction.
