Hierarchical Classification for Predicting Metastasis Using Elastic-Net Regularization on Gene Expression Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Metastasis is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality and remains challenging to detect during early stages. Accurate identification of cancers likely to metastasize can improve treatment strategies and patient outcomes. This study leverages publicly available gene expression profiles from primary cancers, with and without distal metastasis, to ...

Learning a Generative Model of Cancer Metastasis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
We introduce a Unified Disentanglement Network (UFDN) trained on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We demonstrate that the UFDN learns a biologically relevant latent space of gene expression data by applying our network to two classification tasks of cancer status and cancer type.

TRPM4 contributes to cell death in prostate cancer tumor spheroids, and to extravasation and metastasis in a zebrafish xenograft model system

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Transient receptor potential melastatin‐4 (TRPM4) is overexpressed in prostate cancer (PCa). Knockout of TRPM4 resulted in reduced PCa tumor spheroid size and decreased PCa tumor spheroid outgrowth. In addition, lack of TRPM4 increased cell death in PCa tumor spheroids.

Dual reporter genetic mouse models of pancreatic cancer identify an epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition‐independent metastasis program

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2018
Epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a recognized eukaryotic cell differentiation program that is also observed in association with invasive tumors.

The Cancer Diaspora: Metastasis beyond the seed and soil hypothesis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Do cancer cells escape their confinement of their original habitat in the primary tumor or are they forced out by ecological changes in their home niche? Describing metastasis in terms of a simple one-way migration of cells from the primary to target organs is an insufficient concept to cover the nuances of cancer spread.

Cystatin A promotes the antitumor activity of T helper type 1 cells and dendritic cells in murine models of pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a disease with very poor prognosis due to therapeutic limitations. We investigated the antitumor effects of cystatin A (CSTA) in PDAC murine models. We are first to confirm that CSTA enhances T helper type 1‐mediated antitumor effects through promotion of dendritic cells and M1 macrophage activity. CSTA can be

Establishment of homotrimer collagen type I signature and its association with clinical manifestation and tertiary lymphoid structures formation in liver cancer

open access: yesHeliyon
Background: collagen type I is a fundamental composition of extracellular matrix. Typically it exists in the form of a heterotrimer, consisting of two α1 chains encoded by COL1A1 and one α2 chain encoded by COL1A2.

Implications of the hybrid epithelial/mesenchymal phenotype in metastasis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Understanding cell-fate decisions during tumorigenesis and metastasis is a major challenge in modern cancer biology. One canonical cell-fate decision that cancer cells undergo is Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) and its reverse Mesenchymal-to-Epithelial Transition (MET).
