Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

EBioMedicine, 2017 8-Oxoguanine, a common mutagenic DNA lesion, generates G:C>T:A transversions via mispairing with adenine during DNA replication. When operating normally, the MUTYH DNA glycosylase prevents 8-oxoguanine-related mutagenesis by excising the incorporated ...

Targeting p38α in cancer: challenges, opportunities, and emerging strategies
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.p38α normally regulates cellular stress responses and homeostasis and suppresses malignant transformation. In cancer, however, p38α is co‐opted to drive context‐dependent proliferation and dissemination. p38α also supports key functions in cells of the tumor microenvironment, including fibroblasts, myeloid cells, and T lymphocytes.

Syngeneic animal models of tobacco-associated oral cancer reveal the activity of in situ anti-CTLA-4. [PDF]
, 2019 Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. Tobacco use is the main risk factor for HNSCC, and tobacco-associated HNSCCs have poor prognosis and response to available treatments.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Irradiation to Improve the Response to Immunotherapeutic Agents in Glioblastomas. [PDF]
, 2019 PurposeGlioblastoma (GBM) remains an incurable disease despite extensive treatment with surgical resection, irradiation, and temozolomide. In line with many other forms of aggressive cancers, GBM is currently under consideration as a target for ...

Basroparib inhibits YAP‐driven cancers by stabilizing angiomotin
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Basroparib, a selective tankyrase inhibitor, suppresses Wnt signaling and attenuates YAP‐driven oncogenic programs by stabilizing angiomotin. It promotes AMOT–YAP complex formation, enforces cytoplasmic YAP sequestration, inhibits YAP/TEAD transcription, and sensitizes YAP‐active cancers, including KRAS‐mutant colorectal cancer, to MEK inhibition.

Evolutionary dynamics of early and late mutational signatures in metastatic cancer
Frontiers in BioinformaticsCancer genomes accumulate somatic mutations over time, influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic mutational processes. In metastatic cancer, disseminated tumor cells may acquire additional mutations at metastatic sites, shaped by extrinsic factors ...

Mutations in the HPV16 genome induced by APOBEC3 are associated with viral clearance
Nature Communications, 2020 The APOBEC mutational signature is prevalent in different tumour types. Here, using HPV16- positive cervical samples, the authors show that the signature is more prevalent in the viral genome of benign or clearing HPV16 infections compared to the viral ...
