Mevalonate Kinase Impairs Anti-Tumor Immunity by Inhibiting the Tumor Cell-Intrinsic Interferon Response in Microsatellite Instability Colorectal Cancer Academic Background Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, particularly anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies, has been approved for the treatment of microsatellite instability colorectal cancer (MSI ...

Academic Background and Problem Statement Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer, accounting for 15-20% of all breast cancer cases. Due to the lack of expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), TNBC is insensitive to hormone the...

Academic Background and Problem Statement Prostate Cancer (PCA) is one of the most common malignancies in men, particularly in advanced stages, where patients typically receive Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) as the standard treatment. However, despite initial treatment efficacy, patients eventually develop Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (...

PRMT5-Regulated Splicing of DNA Repair Genes Drives Chemoresistance in Breast Cancer Stem Cells Academic Background Breast Cancer Stem Cells (BCSCs) are a rare subpopulation of cells within breast cancer that possess the ability to self-renew, initiate tumors, and metastasize.
