    Reconstitution of human PDAC using primary cells reveals oncogenic transcriptomic features at tumor onset

    Animal studies have demonstrated the ability of pancreatic acinar cells to transform into pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, the tumorigenic potential of human pancreatic acinar cells remains un...

    Genomic profiling of subcutaneous patient-derived xenografts reveals immune constraints on tumor evolution in childhood solid cancer

    Subcutaneous patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) are an important tool for childhood cancer research. Here, we describe a resource of 68 early passage PDXs established from 65 pediatric solid tumor patients. Thr...

    Genomic disparities between cancers in adolescent and young adults and in older adults

    Cancers cause significant mortality and morbidity in adolescents and young adults (AYAs), but their biological underpinnings are incompletely understood. Here, we analyze clinical and genomic disparities betwe...

    Integrated analysis of telomerase enzymatic activity unravels an association with cancer stemness and proliferation

    Active telomerase is essential for stem cells and most cancers to maintain telomeres. The enzymatic activity of telomerase is related but not equivalent to the expression of TERT, the catalytic subunit of the ...

    Murine models of IDH-wild-type glioblastoma exhibit spatial segregation of tumor initiation and manifestation during evolution

    Recent characterization of spatiotemporal genomic architecture of IDH-wild-type multifocal glioblastomas (M-GBMs) suggests a clinically unobserved common-ancestor (CA) with a less aggressive phenotype, generating...

    The Pan-Cancer analysis of pseudogene expression reveals biologically and clinically relevant tumour subtypes

    Although individual pseudogenes have been implicated in tumour biology, the biomedical significance and clinical relevance of pseudogene expression have not been assessed in a systematic way. Here we generate ...
