Intrinsic higher potency of basal urothelial cells to intermediate and umbrella cells as the cell of origin for bladder cancer

Chuan Yu, Nicholas Chu, Alexandra Aguirre…·Zhu A. Wang

This study identifies basal urothelial cells as the most potent cell of origin for aggressive bladder cancer subtypes, based on lineage tracing and single-cell RNA sequencing in mouse models.

Modulation of the canonical Wnt activity by androgen signaling in prostate epithelial basal stem cells

Yueli Liu, Jiawen Wang, Corrigan Horton…·Zhu A. Wang

This study shows androgen signaling modulates canonical Wnt activity in prostate basal stem cells, maintaining their multipotency by suppressing Wnt-driven differentiation.
