DNA Hypomethylation Is Not Cell Intrinsically Toxic to Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 Deficient Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors

Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer, Volume 65, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are aggressive soft tissue sarcomas and the most common cause of disease‐associated death for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) patients. In the context of NF1, MPNSTs develop from benign premalignant precursors and the transition to malignancy is typically accompanied by loss of the polycomb ...

Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor‐Associated Protein (uPARAP) as a Potential Next Generation Molecular Target for Treatment of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST)

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 3, Page 797-808, 1 August 2026.
A key component of the collagen internalization and lysosomal degradation cellular machinery, uPARAP may contribute to cancer progression. Here, the authors explored the expression of uPARAP in gastrointestinal stromal tumors using well‐annotated clinical patient samples and specimens from cell line‐ and patient‐derived xenografts.
