    A humanized mouse model for adeno-associated viral gene therapy

    Clinical translation of AAV-mediated gene therapy requires preclinical development across different experimental models, often confounded by variable transduction efficiency. Here, we describe a human liver ch...

    Restoration of the molecular clock is tumor suppressive in neuroblastoma

    MYCN activation is a hallmark of advanced neuroblastoma (NB) and a known master regulator of metabolic reprogramming, favoring NB adaptation to its microenvironment. We found that the expression of the main re...

    MDM4 inhibition: a novel therapeutic strategy to reactivate p53 in hepatoblastoma

    Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common pediatric liver malignancy. High-risk patients have poor survival, and current chemotherapies are associated with significant toxicities. Targeted therapies are needed to...

    Surgical Strategies for High Risk Neuroblastoma

    The surgical management of high risk neuroblastoma has been highly debated over the last decade. Many surgeons attempt a near total resection of the tumor no matter how extensive, and others believe that parti...

    A Novel Cell Line Based Orthotopic Xenograft Mouse Model That Recapitulates Human Hepatoblastoma

    Currently, preclinical testing of therapies for hepatoblastoma (HB) is limited to subcutaneous and intrasplenic xenograft models that do not recapitulate the hepatic tumors seen in patients. We hypothesized th...

    Wip1 inhibitor GSK2830371 inhibits neuroblastoma growth by inducing Chk2/p53-mediated apoptosis

    Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial tumor in children. Unlike in most adult tumors, tumor suppressor protein 53 (p53) mutations occur with a relatively low frequency in NB and the downstream fun...

    mTOR ATP-competitive inhibitor INK128 inhibits neuroblastoma growth via blocking mTORC signaling

    High-risk neuroblastoma often develops resistance to high-dose chemotherapy. The mTOR signaling cascade is frequently deregulated in human cancers and targeting mTOR signaling sensitizes many cancer types to c...

    Relapse surveillance in AFP-positive hepatoblastoma: re-evaluating the role of imaging

    Children with hepatoblastoma routinely undergo repetitive surveillance imaging, with CT scans for several years after therapy, increasing the risk of radiation-induced cancer.

    TAK1 inhibitor 5Z-7-oxozeaenol sensitizes neuroblastoma to chemotherapy

    Treatment failure in high risk neuroblastoma is largely due to development of chemoresistance. NF-κB activation is one of the resistance mechanisms for cancer cells to escape from chemotherapy-induced cell-dea...
