Rational design of HER2-targeted combination therapies to reverse drug resistance in fibroblast-protected HER2+ breast cancer cells.

M. D. Poskus, J. McDonald, M. Laird, R. Li, K. Norcoss, I. K. Zervantonakis

This study identifies PAI1 and PLK1 as predictors of fibroblast-mediated resistance in HER2+ breast cancer and shows that targeting these proteins with lapatinib improves treatment efficacy.

The platyrrhine primate Cebus imitator uses gaze to adjust grasp posture for food handling and withdraw to the mouth

I. Q. Whishaw, M. Mah, J. G. Casorso, E. M. Chacon, J. Chalk-Wilayto, M. Laird, A. Melin

This study investigates whether vision contributes to food withdrawal in capuchin monkeys, finding that they use vision and touch to grasp and orient food items for eating.
