SCI member Michelle Monje🎗️ & others demonstrate that adaptive OPC responses are disrupted by #Neurofibromatosis (NF1) mutations in the neurogenetic disorder #NF1, which impairs oligodendroglial dynamics and results in motor learning deficits. go.nature.com/3LFQ6kp
SCI member Candice Thompson has joined the SCI-Office of Cancer Health Equity as the new medical director, focusing on engaging communities of color relating to breast cancer education, cancer care access and innovation, and clinical trial inclusion. Congratulations Candice N. Thompson, MD!
SCI member Kyle Loh and others demonstrate that artery endothelial cells form #HematopoieticStemCells in vivo and that hPSC-derived hematopoietic progenitors express core HSCmarkers HLF and HOXA5-10. bit.ly/3WJVVnb Ravi Majeti
SCI members Andrei Iagaru, Sandy Srinivas, James Brooks, and colleagues found 68Ga-RM2 PET–MRI showed better diagnostic performance than MRI alone in patients with biochemical recurrence of #ProstateCancer. bit.ly/3WBuKcO Sandy Srinivas
SCI member Mark Buyyounouski & others detail recent updates to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Guidelines for #BladderCancer, including changes in WHO Classifications, emerging tx options for #BacillusCalmetteGuérin unresponsive NMIB, and systemic therapy recommendations. bit.ly/3ysynKk
SCI members Adam de la Zerda, Kavita Sarin, and colleagues found that computer algorithms powered by artificial intelligence based on #DeepLearning can help healthcare practitioners diagnose #SkinCancers more accurately. bit.ly/46Lw5CB Adam de la Zerda
SCI member Natalie J. Torok & others showed that advanced glycation end-product-mediated structural changes enhance extracellular matrix viscoelasticity. Viscoelasticity can promote cancer progression independent of stiffness. go.nature.com/3X9klXl #HepatocellularCarcinoma
SCI members detail a method for cultivating patient-derived #lymphoma #organoids while maintaining the native FL TME demonstrating stability over 3 weeks, with consistent cellular composition, mutations, and gene expressions. bit.ly/4cvMzQx Ash Alizadeh, MD/PhD 🇺🇸 Max Diehn, MD/PhD
SCI member Allison Kurian and others found that many #BreastCancer survivors eligible for #GeneticCounseling and testing are not receiving it. However, among those who do test, nearly 2/3 who have a genetic variant are reaching out to family members. bit.ly/46YK6wS
SCI member @Linda_Kachur & others around genome-wide PRS have the potential to enhance the detection of high-risk individuals and help distinguish between prognostic #glioma subtypes. bit.ly/3ABCPqI Melissa Bondy
SCI member Maria Roncarolo & others found that ICAM1 acts as an immune trigger, allowing T cell killing, and could play a role in #AcuteMyeloidLeukemia patient survival in vivo. Ravi Majeti go.nature.com/4g7vnnG
