An integrative approach unveils FOSL1 as an oncogene vulnerability in KRAS-driven lung and pancreatic cancer [PDF]
KRAS mutated tumours represent a large fraction of human cancers, but the vast majority remains refractory to current clinical therapies. Thus, a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms triggered by KRAS oncogene may yield alternative ...

Electronic-cigarette smoke induces lung adenocarcinoma and bladder urothelial hyperplasia in mice
Significance Electronic-cigarette smoke (ECS) is designed to deliver nicotine, and its use is gaining popularity. Previously, we found that ECS induces DNA damage and inhibits DNA repair in the mouse lungs and bladder urothelium.

Absence of an embryonic stem cell DNA methylation signature in human cancer. [PDF]
BackgroundDifferentiated cells that arise from stem cells in early development contain DNA methylation features that provide a memory trace of their fetal cell origin (FCO). The FCO signature was developed to estimate the proportion of cells in a mixture

Lung adenocarcinoma originates from retrovirus infection of proliferating type 2 pneumocytes during pulmonary post-natal development or tissue repair [PDF]
Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV) is a unique oncogenic virus with distinctive biological properties. JSRV is the only virus causing a naturally occurring lung cancer (ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma, OPA) and possessing a major structural protein that ...

FAP-α is an effective tool to evaluate stroma invasion of lung adenocarcinoma
The main difficulty in the diagnosis of atypical in situ adenocarcinoma lies in the distinction between true and false stromal invasion. Moreover, how to identify local alveolar wall collapse in situ lung adenocarcinoma and how to identify whether the ...

Computational purification of individual tumor gene expression profiles leads to significant improvements in prognostic prediction. [PDF]
Tumor heterogeneity is a limiting factor in cancer treatment and in the discovery of biomarkers to personalize it. We describe a computational purification tool, ISOpure, to directly address the effects of variable normal tissue contamination in clinical
