A Phenotypic Screen of Marfan Syndrome iPSC-Derived Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Uncovers GSK3β as a New Target
Scientists described a medium-throughput, unbiased small molecule screen to identify novel disease mechanisms and therapeutic targets using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology.
[British Journal of Cancer] The immunoproteasome subunit LMP7 was silenced by using gene knockout or inhibited by the epoxyketone inhibitor ONX 0914 in a mouse castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) tumor graft model and in interferon-γ-pretreated human CRPC cell lines in vitro.
[British Journal of Cancer] 582 mCRPC patients undergoing first-line abiraterone therapy from four institutions were sorted by three phases: discovery, training, and validation.
[International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics] Researchers performed an international multi-institutional retrospective study of 277 men with metachronous oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer who underwent targeted DNA sequencing of their primary/metastatic tumor.
