    Progranulin mediates immune evasion of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma through regulation of MHCI expression

    Immune evasion is indispensable for cancer initiation and progression, although its underlying mechanisms in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are not fully known. Here, we characterize the function of t...

    Cellular model system to dissect the isoform-selectivity of Akt inhibitors

    The protein kinase Akt plays a pivotal role in cellular processes. However, its isoforms’ distinct functions have not been resolved to date, mainly due to the lack of suitable biochemical and cellular tools. A...

    ALK positively regulates MYCN activity through repression of HBP1 expression

    ALK mutations occur in 10% of primary neuroblastomas and represent a major target for precision treatment. In combination with MYCN amplification, ALK mutations infer an ultra-high-risk phenotype resulting in ver...
