    RT @CancerGrand: The eDyNAmiC team will investigate #ecDNA, found in around a third of cancers, hoping to develop much needed treatments for people whose cancer is driven in this way Congratulations Paul Mischel (@mischellab @StanfordMed) and the team, funded by @CR_UK and @theNCI 3/n

    Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) are small rings of DNA that help tumours evolve and evade treatment. The eDyNAmiC team will look at ways to interfere with ecDNA, slow down tumour development & ultimately bring hope to patients whose cancers have become resistant to treatment. 4/6

    @CancerGrand @theNCI @CR_UK The team, composed of investigators from 11 institutions across the US, UK, and Germany, will leverage our interdisciplinary expertise to tackle the questions of origin, function, and evolution of ecDNA in cancer.

    We are honored, grateful for the opportunity, and committed to working together to make a difference for patients with ecDNA-driven cancers. It is a thrill to work with such an amazing group of colleagues.

    Congratulations to @kinglhung, @KatieEYost, @HowardYChang and colleagues on this landmark discovery published today in @Nature. We are thrilled to have worked together with you on this.

    Our paper is out in @Nature! Extrachromosomal DNA molecules huddle together in cancer cells to activate oncogene expression (which we call ecDNA hubs). A great collaboration with @KatieEYost, @HowardYChang, @549nm, Zhe Liu, and others. (1/10)

    RT @SihanSean: Congrats to my former colleague Junfeng Bi @mischellab for the new paper! He found that GBM, the most lethal brain tumor, is sensitive to SMPD1 inhibition. Adding antidepressant fluoxetine to standard-of-care chemotherapy can improve patient survival.

    Congratulations to postdoc Junfeng Bi on his new paper out today in @CellReports! It has important mechanistic and clinical implications for glioblastoma patients, spanning from fundamental biology, to clinical data. @Stanford_ChEMH @StanfordPath

    The team found that GBMs are sensitive to SMPD1 inhibition and that fluoxetine can safely and potently shrink GBM tumors in mice. We also used real world data to identify that addition of fluoxetine to standard of care improves patient survival.

    The idea that a safe, inexpensive, and highly brain penetrant drug could make a difference for glioblastoma patients is exciting, compelling, and needs to be further studied! #Glioblastoma #CancerResearch #Cancer

    RT @NatRevClinOncol: In uveal melanoma, PRC1 loss leads to gene de-repression, chromosome segregation errors, CIN, rupture-prone micronuclei & release of dsDNA into the cytosol, which activates the cGAS-STING pathway to induce inflammatory signalling & confers a poor prognosis

    Congratulations to @MathieuBakhoum on the new paper, which has significant clinical implications for uveal #Melanoma patients, published in @NatureComms. This work functionally links two hallmarks of cancer #epigenetic dysregulation and chromosomal instability. #cancerresearch
    Mathieu Bakhoum @MathieuBakhoum
    Uveal #Melanoma can metastasize. But why do these highly lethal metastases occur in some patients but not others? In our new paper @NatureComms we describe a novel and unanticipated mechanism. #epigenetics @YaleMed @LaughneyLab @Samuel_Bakhoum @mischellab
