Research Director at Inserm, Nice & Editor-in-Chief of Oncogenesis. Our team, composed of researchers and clinicians, studies how tumor metabolism shapes anti-tumor immunity and contributes to cancer cell adaptation and therapy resistance

Check how their research identifies SHP1 as a critical intracellular checkpoint that promotes tumor immune evasion by concurrently suppressing DC antigen presentation and the formation of central memory CD8+ T cells, nominating it as a promising therapeutic target for immunotherapy-resistant cancers

This review (1) discusses how iron-dependent pathways contribute to tumor development, (2) describes the relevance of iron crosstalk within the tumor microenvironment in promoting tumor growth, metabolic reprogramming and immune evasion...

Check how this study reveals a novel regulatory pathway wherein USP11 promotes CRC progression by stabilizing ISCU and suppressing cuproptosis, contributing to tumor resistance against cuproptotic stress and highlights a potential therapeutic target for sensitizing CRC to copper-induced cell death.

It also describes approaches to target this signalling pathway, where aberrant, with the goal of eradicating the CSC population responsible for cancer initiation and progression, and importantly, patient relapse to many clinical therapeutics.

Check how their findings support a model whereby HPCAL1 promotes CRC aggressiveness by sustaining canonical Wnt signaling, thereby functioning as a critical facilitator of the cellular plasticity required for metastatic progression.

Check how their data strongly indicates that treatment with gemcitabine is well tolerated by FA/BRCA deficient mice and may provide an alternative treatment modality for chemoradiotherapy of HNSCC in Fanconi patients.

happy to share our review collection “Metabolic Reprogramming in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities” @oncogenesisnature.bsky.social . A big thank you to all contributing authors. If you are interested in cancer metabolism, I encourage you to read these expert reviews. enjoy!!

🚀📚 Excited to share the launch of the review collection "Metabolic Reprogramming in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities", edited by Shensi Shen (@seansi.bsky.social) and Jean-Ehrland Ricci (@jer-06.bsky.social). 📖 Discover the Review Collection: www.nature.com/collections/...

Check how this study shows that while prostasin deficiency does not affect primary tumor growth, it results in a significantly increased of metastasis due to the crucial role of fibronectin in tight junctions.

Check how this study uncovers a mechanism whereby FBP1 can be regulated by a protein O-GlcNAcylation-polyubiquitination axis, paving the way to cancer cell metabolic reprogramming and tumour progression in pancreatic cancer.

Check how their findings demonstrate that PRMT6-dependent EZH2 methylation plays an important role in driving breast tumour growth, revealing a new epigenetic mechanism of PRMT6 in the breast cancer and highlighting PRMT6 inhibition as a potentially therapeutic strategy.
