Bcl-xL targeting eliminates ageing tumor-promoting neutrophils and inhibits lung tumor growth

Freddy Radtke, Etienne Meylan, Nadine Fournier, Amber Dawn Bowler, Justine Pascual, Anita Bodac

Elevated peripheral blood and tumor-infiltrating neutrophils are often associated with a poor patient prognosis. However, therapeutic strategies to target these cells are difficult to implement due to the life-threatening risk of neutropenia. In a genetica ...

Metabolic dependencies of metastasis-initiating cells in breast cancer

Candice Megan T Young

Metastasis is the process by which cancer cells from the primary tumor travel through the blood stream to generate a secondary tumor site in a distant organ. Although very few cells are able to make this journey, the resulting effects are dire since most c ...
