Abstract Intrinsic resistance to anti-HER2 therapy in breast cancer remains an obstacle the clinic, limiting its efficacy. However, biological basis for intrinsic is poorly understood. Here we performed a CRISPR/Cas9-mediated loss-of-function genetic profiling and identified TALDO1 , which encodes rate-limiting transaldolase (TA) enzyme non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, as essential cellular survival following pharmacological HER2 blockade. Suppression of TA increases cell...
Cellular senescence is a cell fate characterized by an irreversible cycle arrest, but the molecular mechanism underlying this hallmark remains poorly understood. Through unbiased search for novel regulators in airway basal cells, we discovered that epigenetic regulator ubiquitin-like with PHD and ring finger domain-containing protein 1 (UHRF1) critical regulating progression. Upon injury, cells mouse rapidly induce expression of UHRF1 order to stimulate stem proliferation tissue repair....
