Glad to have contributed to this beautiful work led by @celiarouault.bsky.social & colleagues at @crcm.bsky.social just out in @naturecomms.bsky.social. Using drug repurposing, they unveiled the STAT3/FanA axis as a targetable vulnerability in breast cancer stem cells

Inhibition of the STAT3/Fanconi anemia axis is synthetic lethal with PARP inhibition in breast cancer - Nature Communications
Targeting cancer stem cells (CSCs) has great potential in anti-cancer treatment. Here this group reports the role of antibiotic Nifuroxazide as a potent anti-CSC compound and fabricates it into an ant...

Genetic buffering mechanisms in SNF2-family translocases
SNF2-family DNA translocases, a large family of ATPases, have poorly defined roles in genomic stability. In a recent study, Feng et al. identified a synthetic lethal interaction between the SNF2 trans...
