Cancer cell and microenvironmental rewiring by ADAR1 loss impairs glioblastoma tumor growth and extends survival
Glioblastomas are the most frequent and aggressive primary brain tumors. Current treatments invariably fail, a consequence of the pronounced heterogen…

We are on the cover! Or what is in the cover is way more important than we, it's evidence that simple IHC assay could be used for recognising #HNSCC patients based on their outcome after surgery-only therapy. The actual cover and the article can be found here: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

New diagnostic breakthrough predicts which head and neck cancer patients can be cured with surgery alone
Researchers developed a diagnostic test based on the LIMA1-alpha protein to distinguish patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who can be cured with surgery alone, without the need for

LSD1 serine 166 is a phosphorylation switch for chromatin landscaping, gene activation, and tissue remodeling
LSD1 is a histone 3 (H3) demethylase that can either repress or activate gene expression. We discover here that the so far enigmatic balance between these two activities in non-hormonal cancer cells i...

New preprint from us. The study led by Mukund Sharma demonstrates how #PP2A mediated dephosphorylation of serine 166 of LSD1 functions as a phosphorylation switch between gene repression and activation by LSD1 and how this shapes tumor microenvironment. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
