Menin regulates oncogenic cell identity transcriptional networks in multiple myeloma

Emily Gruber, Subhasree Kumar, Rheana L. Franich…·Lev M. Kats

This study identifies Menin as a key regulator of oncogenic gene expression in multiple myeloma and shows that Menin inhibitors are effective in myeloma cell lines and models.

Inhibition of heme biosynthesis triggers cuproptosis in acute myeloid leukaemia.

Alexander Charles Lewis, Emily Gruber, Rheana L. Franich…·Lev M. Kats

This study identifies heme biosynthesis as a selective dependency in AML, showing that its inhibition triggers cuproptosis via copper accumulation and reveals synthetic lethal pathways for therapeutic strategies.
