Eph receptors and ephrins in cancer progression
Evidence implicating Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and their ephrin ligands (that together make up the ‘Eph system’) in cancer development and...
-
A cell cycle centric view of tumour dormancy
Tumour dormancy and recurrent metastatic cancer remain the greatest clinical challenge for cancer patients. Dormant tumour cells can evade treatment...
-
A timeline of tumour-associated macrophage biology
Tumour progression is modulated by the local microenvironment. This environment is populated by many immune cells, of which macrophages are among the...
-
Transfer RNAs as dynamic and critical regulators of cancer progression
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) have been historically viewed as non-dynamic adaptors that decode the genetic code into proteins. Recent work has uncovered...

Immunoproteasome inhibition prevents progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer
BackgroundCastration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is refractory to hormone treatment. This study aims to explore the effect and underlying...
-
Cancer stem cell–immune cell crosstalk in tumour progression
Cellular heterogeneity and an immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment are independent yet synergistic drivers of tumour progression and underlie...
-
Therapeutic targeting of tumour myeloid cells
Myeloid cells are pivotal within the immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment. The accumulation of tumour-modified myeloid cells derived from...

Single-cell sequencing of PIT1-positive pituitary adenoma highlights the pro-tumour microenvironment mediated by IFN-γ-induced tumour-associated fibroblasts remodelling
BackgroundPIT1-positive pituitary adenoma (PIT1-PA) is one of the most important lineages of pituitary adenoma (PA), which causes systematic...

LINC00629 protects osteosarcoma cell from ER stress-induced apoptosis and facilitates tumour progression by elevating KLF4 stability
BackgroundEsca** from ER stress-induced apoptosis plays an important role in the progression of many tumours. However, its molecular mechanism in...

USP30 promotes the progression of breast cancer by stabilising Snail
Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent tumour in women worldwide. USP30 is a deubiquitinase that has been previously reported to promote tumour...

HVEM in acute lymphocytic leukemia facilitates tumour immune escape by inhibiting CD8+ T cell function
PurposeLeukaemia remains a major contributor to global mortality, representing a significant health risk for a substantial number of cancer patients....

The prognostic and biology of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes in the immunotherapy of cancer
Tumour immunotherapy has achieved remarkable clinical success in many different types of cancer in the past two decades. The outcome of immune...

Higher platelet counts correlate to tumour progression and can be induced by intratumoural stroma in non-metastatic breast carcinomas
BackgroundPlatelets support tumour progression. However, their prognostic significance and relation to circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in operable...

Tumour cell-derived serglycin promotes IL-8 secretion of CAFs in gastric cancer
BackgroundCancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs)-derived IL-8 plays important roles in chemoresistance, immunosuppression, and lymph node metastasis of...
-
Involvement of redox signalling in tumour cell dormancy and metastasis
Decades of research on oncogene-driven carcinogenesis and gene-expression regulatory networks only started to unveil the complexity of tumour...

HuR promotes castration-resistant prostate cancer progression by altering ERK5 activation via posttranscriptional regulation of BCAT1
BackgroundCastration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is refractory to hormone treatment, and the underlying mechanism has not been fully elucidated....

Circulating Tumour Cell Isolation and Molecular Profiling; Potential Therapeutic Intervention
Comprehensive tumour characterisation is indispensable for patients to receive targeted therapy. The use of liquid biopsy, particularly circulating... -
Progress of single-cell RNA sequencing combined with spatial transcriptomics in tumour microenvironment and treatment of pancreatic cancer
In recent years, single-cell analyses have revealed the heterogeneity of the tumour microenvironment (TME) at the genomic, transcriptomic, and...

PARD3 drives tumorigenesis through activating Sonic Hedgehog signalling in tumour-initiating cells in liver cancer
BackgroundPar-3 Family Cell Polarity Regulator (PARD3) is a cellular protein essential for asymmetric cell division and polarized growth. This study...
