Trackable Intratumor Microdosing and Spatial Profiling Provide Early Insights into Activity of Investigational Agents in the Intact Tumor Microenvironment
Purpose: Cancer drug development is currently limited by a paradigm of preclinical evaluation that does not adequately recapitulate the complexity of the intact human tumor microenvironment (TME). To overcome this,…

Active transcription in the vascular bed characterizes rapid progression in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is the most common manifestation of interstitial lung disease (ILD), with a median survival of 3-5 years after diagnosis. IPF is characterized by progressive fibrosis with…

GSK-3 Inhibitor Elraglusib Enhances Tumor-Infiltrating Immune Cell Activation in Tumor Biopsies and Synergizes with Anti-PD-L1 in a Murine Model of Colorectal Cancer
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a serine/threonine kinase that has been implicated in numerous oncogenic processes. GSK-3 inhibitor elraglusib (9-ING-41) has shown promising preclinical and clinical antitumor activity across multiple…

Multi-dimensional characterization of immunological profiles in small cell lung cancer uncovers clinically relevant immune subtypes with distinct prognoses and therapeutic vulnerabilities
Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is generally considered a 'homogenous' disease, with little documented inter-tumor heterogeneity in treatment guidance or prognosis evaluation. The precise identification of clinically relevant molecular subtypes remains…

Spatial mapping of the DNA adducts in cancer
DNA adducts and strand breaks are induced by various exogenous and endogenous agents. Accumulation of DNA damage is implicated in many disease processes, including cancer, aging, and neurodegeneration. The continuous…

In vivo inhibition of nuclear ACE2 translocation protects against SARS-CoV-2 replication and lung damage through epigenetic imprinting
In vitro, ACE2 translocates to the nucleus to induce SARS-CoV-2 replication. Here, using digital spatial profiling of lung tissues from SARS-CoV-2-infected golden Syrian hamsters, we show that a specific and…

Breast cancer associated CD169+ macrophages possess broad immunosuppressive functions but enhance antibody secretion by activated B cells
CD169+ resident macrophages in lymph nodes of breast cancer patients are for unknown reasons associated with a beneficial prognosis. This contrasts CD169+ macrophages present in primary breast tumors (CD169+ TAMs),…
