Ng et al. show that the BCR::ABL1 kinase that drives the lymphoid leukemia Ph+B‐ALL modulates enhancer function by coopting signaling‐inducible transcription factors such as MYC, STAT5, and ETV5. BCR::ABL1 thereby promotes the transcriptional program driving and defining this leukemia and renders Ph+B‐ALL cells hypersensitive to enhancer‐inhibiting ...

Dysregulation of the PATZ1/CTCF Balance Silences ZBTB20 to Drive Melanoma Progression
This study uncovers a new oncogenic mechanism in melanoma. The transcription factor PATZ1 competes with the architectural protein CTCF for DNA binding, thereby disrupting a specific chromatin loop and silencing the tumor suppressor ZBTB20. This event unleashes the pro‐tumorigenic PMEPA1‐p38‐STAT1 signaling axis, promoting cancer progression.

Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT) Proteins Regulate Mucosal-Associated Invariant T (MAIT) Cell Function. [PDF]
Integrated transcriptomic, proteomic and flow cytometry analyses reveal that STAT1 negatively regulates MAIT cell effector and glycolytic functions, while STAT3, STAT5 and HIF1α act as positive modulators. Targeting these pathways may offer new strategies to restore MAIT cell function in immune dysregulation and cancer.

This study identifies mutation‐intolerant genes (MIGs), which are mutationally constrained in tumors despite normal‐tissue variability. Using miDriver, the authors pinpoint MIGs essential for tumor‐intrinsic fitness and immune evasion. Focusing on CHEK1, they show it drives tumor fitness and sculpts an immunosuppressive niche via the MIF–CD74 axis ...

Zhang et al. identify M7core, a critical cGAS‐STING pathway‐driven gene signature that is activated in most lupus patients’ blood and links to lupus disease severity, lymphopenia, and lupus nephritis. They further reveal the diagnostic and pathogenic characteristics of M7core and emphasize the importance of assessing pathway activity before initiating ...
