DAZAP1 is an RNA-binding protein that aggregates in the nucleus through liquid–liquid phase separation. Nuclear accumulation of DAZAP1 enhances its binding to COX16 pre-mRNA, enhancing the expression of COX16 and mediating mitochondrial metabolism in tumor cells. Targeting DAZAP1 phase separation may provide potential therapeutic strategies to inhibit invasion and metastasis in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Cancer Biology
YAP1 Inhibition Induces Phenotype Switching of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts to Tumor Suppressive in Prostate Cancer
YAP1 regulates cancer-associated fibroblast phenotypes and can be targeted to switch cancer-associated fibroblasts from a protumorigenic subtype that promotes extracellular matrix deposition to a tumor-suppressive subtype that stimulates antitumor immunity and immunotherapy efficacy.
The Neurodevelopmental Protein POGZ Suppresses Metastasis in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer by Attenuating TGFβ Signaling
The POGZ neurodevelopmental protein plays dual functions in triple-negative breast cancers as a tumor promoter and metastasis suppressor, inhibiting TGFβ-regulated EMT to limit breast cancer metastatic progression.
Live-Cell Invasive Phenotyping Uncovers ALK2 as a Therapeutic Target in LKB1-Mutant Lung Cancer
Three-dimensional invasion-linked gene expression analysis reveals a therapeutic vulnerability to inhibition of ALK2/BMP6 signaling in LKB1-mutant lung cancer that can be rapidly translated to the clinic.

PTEN Loss Shapes Macrophage Dynamics in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma
Macrophages with elevated HMOX1 expression are enriched in PTEN-deficient high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma, promote tumor growth, and represent a potential therapeutic target.
Galectin-9 Mediates the Functions of Microglia in the Hypoxic Brain Tumor Microenvironment
Galectin-9 serves as an immune checkpoint molecule that modulates the functional properties of microglia in the brain tumor microenvironment and could potentially be targeted to effectively treat brain tumors.
Cancer Metabolism and Molecular Mechanisms
Hypoxia Stimulates PYGB Enzymatic Activity to Promote Glycogen Metabolism and Cholangiocarcinoma Progression
Cholangiocarcinoma cells exhibit high glycogen phosphorylase activity under hypoxic conditions that mediates metabolic reprograming to promote glycolysis and support tumor development.
DAZAP1 Phase Separation Regulates Mitochondrial Metabolism to Facilitate Invasion and Metastasis of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The RNA-binding protein DAZAP1 undergoes phase separation to enhance COX16 expression and mediate metabolic reprogramming that enables tumor metastasis, highlighting DAZAP1 as a potential metabolic target for cancer therapy.
Therapeutic Development and Chemical Biology
Precise In Situ Delivery of a Photo-Enhanceable Inflammasome-Activating Nanovaccine Activates Anticancer Immunity
The development of a photoresponsive nanovaccine with spatiotemporal controllability enables robust tumor microenvironment modulation and enhances the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade, providing an effective immunotherapeutic strategy for cancer treatment.
A Dual-Payload Antibody–Drug Conjugate Targeting CD276/B7-H3 Elicits Cytotoxicity and Immune Activation in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
An anti-CD276 monoclonal antibody conjugated with both a cytotoxic drug and an immune boosting reagent effectively targets triple-negative breast cancer by inducing tumor cell death and stimulating immune cell infiltration.
Translational Cancer Biology
Low–Molecular Weight Cyclin E Confers a Vulnerability to PKMYT1 Inhibition in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
PKMYT1 upregulation and CDK1 phosphorylation in triple-negative breast cancer expressing low–molecular weight cyclin E leads to suboptimal responses to chemotherapy but sensitizes tumors to PKMYT1 inhibitors, proposing a personalized treatment strategy.
Dual Inhibition of SYK and EGFR Overcomes Chemoresistance by Inhibiting CDC6 and Blocking DNA Replication
SYK and EGFR coinhibition exerts synergistic anticancer effects in chemoresistant ovarian cancer, providing a strategy to treat chemotherapy-resistant ovarian cancers using clinically available agents by targeting critical signaling pathways involved in DNA replication.
Targeting Galectin-1 Overcomes Paclitaxel Resistance in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Galectin-1 is a key mediator of paclitaxel resistance in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that can be targeted to improve taxane efficacy, suggesting broad therapeutic potential for treating various cancer types.
