Cerebellum metastasis model of HER2-positive breast cancer unveils key role of IL34-induced Arg1+ macrophages.

Xiaoqing Cheng, Khooshbu Kantibhai Patel, Brandon Zhou, Yiwei Fu, Ryan Cleary, Maureen K. Highkin, Jacob Hsia, Xiaohua Jin, Beth Kohn, Julie L. Prior, Megan S. Michie, Rui Sun, Amanda E.D. Van Swearingen, James D. Quirk, Ian S. Hagemann, , Ron Bose

This paper develops a mouse model of HER2-positive breast cancer cerebellar metastases and identifies IL34-induced Arg1+ macrophages as key drivers of tumor growth, showing that targeting CSF1R can reduce metastases.

A β-catenin-driven switch in TCF/LEF transcription factor binding to DNA target sites promotes commitment of mammalian nephron progenitor cells

Qiuyu Guo, Albert Kim, Bin Li, Andrew Ransick, Helena Bugacov, Xi Chen, Nils O. Lindström, Aaron Clifford Brown, Leif H. Oxburgh, Bing Ren, Andrew P. McMahon

The paper shows that β-catenin modulates TCF/LEF binding at gene targets, switching from inhibitory to activating complexes during nephron progenitor cell differentiation.
