Check how this study demonstrates that targeting KAT2A with a PROTAC degrader decreases MYCN activity and inhibits NB cell proliferation, which hold the potential to make a significant impact on the management of this aggressive childhood cancer.

Check how their findings reveal that targeting NFATc1 simultaneously restricts biosynthetic precursors and impairs cell cycle progression in CRC, suggesting that NFATc1 inhibition is a promising therapeutic strategy.

Check how this study unveils the involvement of the EPHA5-STAT3 signaling pathway in Follicular Thyroid Cancer and how this discovery offers a promising new target for genetic intervention in the its treatment.

Check how this study highlights LINC01432 as a potential therapeutic target for overcoming resistance in high-risk multiple myeloma.

Check how this study demonstrates that SYT7 functions as an oncoprotein in NPC, driving tumor progression through its regulation of ALDH1A3-mediated glycolysis and STAT3 signaling pathways, revealing its potential as a biomarker for the prediction and treatment of NPC.

Check the working model the author propose where HOTAIR serves as a scaffold enhancing the interaction between MEST and super-enhancers, increasing MEST expression, promoting glioblastoma cell proliferation and invasive migration, and ultimately contributing to tumor progression.

Check how this study underscored the significant role of glycoRNAs in glioma proliferation and provided a foundation for further research into their potential as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for glioma.

In my role as AE for Oncogenesis, I look for translation potential and solid experimental work in a manuscript. I believe such studies are key to advancing science as well as cancer care.

Delighted to have him on our team at #Oncogenesis! 🤝

But also aim to ascertain efficacy from novel interventions or stratification modalities in early phase clinical studies.
