    • It's happening this morning (U.S. time zones); afternoon in Europe, evening in Asia and many other places that interested researchers will be joining from. We'll be starting in ~90 minutes, 10 am Eastern Standard Time. https://t.co/nmtQap9pYA #tunnelingnanotubes #cellbiology https://t.co/HBpA9Zmp6s https://t.co/wCpuaBgERV

    Mutated forms of the RAS oncogene drive 30% of all cancers, but they cannot be targeted therapeutically using currently available drugs. The molecular and cellular mechanisms that create a heterogenous tumor environment harboring both mutant and wild-type RAS have not been elucidated. In this study, we examined horizontal transfer of mutant KRAS between colorectal cancer (CRC) cells via a direct…

    Today’s research on the processes of carcinogenesis and the vital activity of tumor tissues implies more attention be paid to constituents of the tumor microenvironment and their interactions. These interactions between cells in the tumor microenvironment can be mediated via different types of protein junctions. Connexins are one of the major contributors to intercellular communication. They form…
