The next big cancer boom is oropharyngeal in men. HPV is already endemic, vaccines are gender-late, and there’s zero screening for half the population. While you meme about “throat goat” culture, oncologists are quietly booking 40-year-olds for tonsillectomies. onlinelibrary.wiley....

A very different publication from the group! Here, we look at the potential impact of HPV in Men. Exceptional work from Keesha Coker, who did this as her undergraduate thesis project at @biochembiomeduos.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

High‐Risk HPV in Men: A Hidden Threat to Public Health?

High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is a leading cause of several cancers, including those of the genital and oropharyngeal regions. While public health efforts have largely focused on ....

A bit late to post but glad to see our review on novel oncogenic mechanisms of the HPV oncoproteins. Great work from undergraduate student Denise in my lab @biochemsoc.bsky.social @biochembiomeduos.bsky.social #HPV portlandpress.com/biochemsoctr...

Advances in understanding the mechanisms of the human papillomavirus oncoproteins

High-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are responsible for almost all cervical cancer cases and a growing number of oropharyngeal and anogenital cancers. The primary HPV oncoproteins, E6 and E7, act ...

Last month Dr @ethanlmorgan.bsky.social was invited to the EUROGIN Congress in Portugal to present his research targeting HPV driven head and neck cancers. Look out for him at the @microbiologysociety.org annual meeting this week in Liverpool too! 👊

Had a great time at #EUROGIN in Porto earlier this month - thanks for inviting me to speak! Now time for #MicroSoc Annual conference in Liverpool! @microbiologysociety.org

Excited to report our latest research on new “molecular glues” that specifically lock the BRCC36 isopeptidase complex (BRISC) in an autoinhibited state and reduce interferon signalling. This first-of-its-kind approach could reshape how we target large deubiquitylase (DUB) complexes. rdcu.be/edRwF
