Thrombospondin-1 promotes fibro-adipogenic stromal expansion and contractile dysfunction of the diaphragm in obesity

E. D. Buras, M.-S. Woo, R. K. Verma, S. H. Kondisetti, C. S. Davis, D. R. Claflin, K. Converso-Baran, D. E. Michele, S. V. Brooks, T.-H. Chun

This study shows that THBS1 promotes diaphragm stromal expansion and contractile dysfunction in obesity by driving FAP proliferation and ECM changes.

Targeting oncogenic Wnt/β-catenin signaling in adrenocortical carcinoma disrupts ECM expression and impairs tumor growth.

M. K. Penny, A. M. Lerario, K. J. Basham, S. Chukkapalli, Y. Yu, D. R. Mohan, C. LaPensee, K. Converso-Baran, M. Hoenerhoff, L. Suarez Fernandez, C. Gonzalez del Rey, T. J. Giordano, R. Han, E. A. Newman, G. D. Hammer

This paper identifies a Wnt/β-catenin-regulated extracellular matrix (ECM) program in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) that promotes tumor growth and shows that inhibiting this pathway reduces tumor viability and growth in preclinical models.

Senescence-Induced Immune Remodeling Facilitates Metastatic Adrenal Cancer in a Sex-Dimorphic Manner

K. M. Warde, L. Liu, L. J. Smith, B. K. Lohman, C. J. Stubben, H. A. Ekiz, J. L. Ammer, K. Converso-Baran, T. J. Giordano, G. D. Hammer, K. J. Basham

This study shows that cellular senescence induced by ZNRF3 loss remodels the microenvironment, promoting metastatic adrenal cancer with sex-specific immune responses.
