Loss of extracellular matrix-integrin signaling switches off YAP/TEAD and lets prostate adenocarcinoma organoids turn neuroendocrine; LATS inhibition reverses it, and combined YAP, NOTCH and AR inhibition fully reprograms them.

This paper identifies eIF4A as a key regulator of ER translation in breast cancer and shows that inhibiting eIF4A, either alone or with fulvestrant, suppresses ER expression and tumor growth in advanced ER+ breast cancer.

This study shows that BRAFV600E mutations inhibit cell migration and invasion through feedback inhibition of RAC1, requiring secondary mutations to overcome this block and enable tumorigenesis.
