We study intrinsic cancer cell metabolism, crosstalk between tumour and stroma in TME, and how cancer affects the whole body, including the influence of primary tumours on distant organs and the interplay between cancers and systemic conditions. @theCrick
We're incredibly proud to share that our PI has been awarded the Clowes Award - the oldest award by @theaacr.bsky.social - in recognition of her contributions to cancer research!
She will give her award lecture on April 28, at 5:30 p.m. CT in Chicago.
See you there!😎

Very happy to share the latest preprint from the lab. We find that during cell competition, winners induce an increase in proline metabolism in loser cells, and this drives their elimination through repression of the integrated stress response.

Sensing of extracellular L-Proline availability by the integrated stress response determines the outcome of cell competition
Cell competition is a quality control acting from development to the adult that eliminates cells that are less-fit than their neighbours. How winner cells induce the elimination of losers during this ...
