KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

METTL1-mediated m7G modification regulates hair follicle cycle via the HOXC13/FOXN1/DSG4 axis.

PLoS Genetics
Rapid hair follicle cycling requires precise fate commitment and differentiation of hair follicle stem cells. While the essential role of transcription factors in establishing cell identity is well recognized, how cells control its protein synthesis to ...

Stimulator of interferon genes agonist augmented antitumor immunity of osimertinib in Egfr‐mutated lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.

Methyltransferase‐Like 14 Promotes the Angiogenesis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A

Cancer Reports
Background N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification is a pivotal epitranscriptomic regulator implicated in tumor progression. As a core component of the m6A methyltransferase complex, METTL14 is known to suppress tumorigenesis; however, its specific role in

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.

Nuclear-encoded factors involved in post-transcriptional processing and modification of mitochondrial tRNAs in human disease [PDF]

, 2015
The human mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) encodes twenty-two tRNAs (mt-tRNAs) that are necessary for the intraorganellar translation of the thirteen mtDNA-encoded subunits of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes.

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Post-transcriptional and post-translational regulations of drought and heat response in plants: a spider’s web of mechanisms [PDF]

, 2015
Drought and heat tolerance are complex quantitative traits. Moreover, the adaptive significance of some stress-related traits is more related to plant survival than to agronomic performance.
