    • Altered Chromosomal Topology Drives Oncogenic Programs in SDH-Deficient GISTs 

      Flavahan, William A.; Drier, Yotam; Johnstone, Sarah E.; Hemming, Matthew; Tarjan, Daniel R.; Hegazi, Esmat; Shareef, Sarah; Javed, Nauman; Eschle, Benjamin K.; Gokhale, Prafulla C.; Hornick, Jason; Sicinska, Ewa; Demetri, George; Bernstein, Bradley (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-10-16)
      Epigenetic aberrations are widespread in cancer, yet the underlying mechanisms and causality remain poorly understood1-3. A subset of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) lack canonical kinase mutations but instead have ...
    • Enhancer Signatures Stratify and Predict Outcomes of Non-Functional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors 

      Cejas, Paloma; Drier, Yotam; Brosens, Lodewijk A. A.; Deshpande, Vikram; Morsink, Folkert H. M.; Graham, Mindy K.; Valk, Gerlof D.; Vriens, Menno R.; Fernandez-Del Castillo, Carlos; Fabiana Lucia da Silva, Annacarolina; Font-Tello, Alba; Heaphy, Christopher M.; Sicinska, Ewa; Dreijerink, Koen; Epstein, Charles; Conemans, Elfi; Ferrone, Cristina; Adar, Tomer; Bowden, Michaela; Whitton, Holly; Long, Henry; Gaskell, Elizabeth; Shoresh, Noam; Kulke, Matthew; Chung, Daniel; Bernstein, Bradley; Shivdasani, Ramesh (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-07-01)
      Most pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) do not produce excess hormones and are therefore considered ‘non-functional’. As clinical behaviors vary widely and distant metastases are eventually lethal, biological ...
    • A novel direct activator of AMPK inhibits prostate cancer growth by blocking lipogenesis 

      Zadra, Giorgia; Photopoulos, Cornelia; Tyekucheva, Svitlana; Heidari, Pedram; Weng, Qing Ping; Fedele, Giuseppe; Liu, Hong; Scaglia, Natalia; Priolo, Carmen; Sicinska, Ewa; Mahmood, Umar; Signoretti, Sabina; Birnberg, Neal; Loda, Massimo (Backwell Publishing Ltd, 2014)
      5′AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) constitutes a hub for cellular metabolic and growth control, thus representing an ideal therapeutic target for prostate cancers (PCas) characterized by increased lipogenesis and activation of ...
