βIII-Tubulin is a Brake on Extrinsic Cell-Death in Pancreatic Cancer

J. Kokkinos, G. Sharbeen, R. M. C. Ignacio, E. Pandzic, J. Youkhana, C. Boyer, K. S. Haghighi, M. Gunawarman, D. Goldstein, V. Gebski, M. Pajic, O. Pitiyarachchi, M. E. Davis, G. Schulstad, O. S. M. Arkell, , P. A. Phillips

This study identifies βIII-tubulin as a suppressor of extrinsic apoptosis in pancreatic cancer, showing that its silencing enhances sensitivity to death signals and reduces tumor progression.

A feedback-loop between telomerase activity and stemness factors regulates PDAC stem cells

K. Walter, E. Rodriguez-Aznar, M. S. Ventura-Ferreira, P. O. Frappant, T. Dittrich, K. Tiwary, S. Meessen, L. Lerma, N. Daiss, L. A. Schulte, F. Arnold, N. Azoitei, M. Erkan, A. Lehel, T. Bruemmendorf, , P. C. Hermann

This study shows that telomerase activity and stemness factors form a feedback loop that maintains pancreatic cancer stem cells, and disrupting this loop reduces their tumorigenic potential.
