We report that Cyclin D1 is an important direct target of HIF2 that drives the proliferation of ccRCC. Our findings further support the notion of combining HIF2 and CDK4/6 inhibitors to enhance antitumor activities. Congrats to Nitin Shirole and the team!

Excited to share new report from collaborative work from Delgoffe Lab and Patrick Jonker from our team on a novel metabolic suppressor of T cell function in tumors! rdcu.be/eiyIa 1/

Interested in the mysteries surrounding metastasis evolution? This perspective in Nature Reviews Cancer is my best attempt at proposing a framework that could help advance our thinking about the topic. Well. At least it helped advance my own thinking. 😅 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Check out our new paper in Nature Biotechnology sharing our latest kinase activity reporters! Led by former postdoc Michelle Frei, these reporters are based on HaloTag rather than an FP, for far-red imaging and superresolution! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Why do tumors tend to metastasize to lymph nodes? Super interesting insights into this question, published online in Cancer Discovery today. One of those papers that grabs you at the title.

Beyond grateful to share that my main PhD thesis project, Targeting PIKfyve-driven lipid metabolism in pancreatic cancer (Lyssiotis Lab Arul Chinnaiyan), has just been published in nature!
