Rumble in the Genome: Unlocking the Secrets of the Tiny RNAs That Keep Self-Serving, Harmful Genes in Check

The common wisdom is that genes are preserved from generation to generation because they help the organism survive and reproduce. But MSK's Dr. Eric Lai’s team is showing — in fruit flies — that certain genes can threaten a species’ very survival by pursuing their narrow self-interests in passing along their own genetic material.

New MSK research finds a potential target against neuroendocrine transformation in lung and prostate cancers; discovers new clues about why donor T cells attack certain tissues in graft-versus-host disease; sheds light on why T cells let go of their prey; and uses CRISPR interference and dynamic cell-state transitions to discover enhancers that affect early human development.

New MSK research identified a way to reduce toxicity in CAR T cell therapy; discovered a division of labor in DNA repair that suggests a possible therapeutic strategy for certain cancers; developed a new method to enable imaging of two PET tracers simultaneously; found biomarkers that could help predict outcomes in HER2-positive metastatic esophagogastric cancer; and made progress toward improving options for patients with early-stage, potentially indolent cancers.

New MSK research discovered ferroptosis regulators that suggest therapeutic opportunities against hormone receptor-positive cancers; examined how tumor-associated macrophages might be turned against cancer; acquired new insights into joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis; developed a systems-level platform called epichaperomics to map changes in interactors among thousands of proteins involved in cancer-related processes; and investigated how artificial intelligence could help diagnose an invasive form of breast cancer.
