FAK family proteins regulate in vivo breast cancer metastasis via distinct mechanisms.

A. Genna, J. Alter, M. Poletti, T. Meirson, T. Sneh, M. Gendler, N. Saleev, G. Karagiannis, Y. Wang, D. Cox, D. Entenberg, M. Oktay, T. Korcsmaros, J. Condeelis, H. Gil-Henn

This study shows that PYK2 and FAK regulate breast cancer metastasis through distinct mechanisms, with PYK2 affecting motility and FAK reducing tumor size and metastasis.

Macrophages Promote Tumor Cell Extravasation across an Endothelial Barrier through Thin Membranous Connections

A. Genna, C. L. Duran, D. Entenberg, J. S. Condeelis, D. Cox

This study shows macrophages promote tumor cell extravasation via thin membranous connections (TMCs) in vitro and in vivo, and reducing TMC formation decreases metastasis.

A novel Pyk2-derived peptide inhibits invadopodia-mediated breast cancer metastasis

S. Twafra, C. Sokolik, T. Sneh, K. Srikanth, T. Meirson, A. Genna, J. Chill, H. Gil-Henn

This study identifies a Pyk2-derived peptide that inhibits invadopodia-mediated breast cancer metastasis by blocking cortactin interaction.
