Wild-type RAS: keeping mutant RAS in CHK.

abstract：:In this issue of Cancer Cell, Kudo et al. identify a novel tumor suppressor role for PKCλ/ι in hepatocellular carcinoma. Loss of PKCλ/ι in obesity-driven liver cancer results in cellular metabolic reprogramming that induces two reciprocally sustainable processes, oxidative phosphorylation and autophagy, which promote ...

abstract：:Two recurrent mutations, K27M and G34R/V, within histone variant H3.3 were recently identified in ∼50% of pHGGs. Both mutations define clinically and biologically distinct subgroups of pHGGs. Here, we provide further insight about the dominant-negative effect of K27M mutant H3.3, leading to a global reduction of the r...
