DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-47440-w
Abstract: The efficacy of prospective cancer treatments is routinely estimated by in vitro cell-line proliferation screens. However, it is unclear whether tumor aggressiveness and patient survival are influenced more by the proliferative or the migratory properties… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ejendo/lvac007
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Adrenocortical carcinomas (ACCs) are invasive tumours arising in the adrenal cortex, and steroidogenic tumours are associated with worse prognostic outcomes. Loss-of-function mutations in sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SGPL1) cause primary adrenal insufficiency and as a key… read more here.
