This study identifies HIF2-driven PTHrP as a cause of cachexia and hypercalcemia in kidney cancer and shows that HIF2 inhibitors can alleviate these symptoms.

This study identifies DNA hypomethylation, not DNA damage, as the primary mechanism of azacytidine and decitabine anti-cancer activity, linking it to chromatin regulators like USP48.

This study identifies coagulation and immune factors secreted by Drosophila gut tumors that contribute to cachexia via NFκB and JNK pathways.
