Tumor cell-adipocyte gap junctions activate lipolysis and contribute to breast tumorigenesis

Jeremy Williams, Roman Camarda, Serghei Malkov, Lisa J. Zimmerman, Suzanne Manning, Dvir Aran, Andrew R. Beardsley, Daniel Van de Mark, Rachel M. Nakagawa, Yong Chen, Charles A. Berdan, Sharon M. Louie, Céline I. Mahieu, Daphne A. Superville, Juliane Winkler, , Andrei Goga

The paper shows that gap junctions between breast cancer cells and adipocytes transfer cAMP, activating lipolysis in the tumor microenvironment to support tumor growth.

Tumor Cell Spatial Organization Directs EGFR/RAS/RAF Pathway Primary Therapy Resistance through YAP Signaling

Rachel M. Nakagawa, Andrew R. Beardsley, Sophia Durney, Mary-Kate Hayward, Vishvak Subramanyam, Nathaniel P. Meyer, Harrison Wismer, Hani Goodarzi, Valerie Marie Weaver, Daniel Van de Mark, Andrei Goga

This study shows that YAP activation in monolayer cultures causes resistance to EGFR/KRAS/BRAF pathway inhibitors, while spheroids are more sensitive, highlighting differences in culture systems for modeling cancer progression.
