Remodeling of the tumor microenvironment through PAK4 inhibition sensitizes tumors to immune checkpoint blockade. (PubMed, Cancer Res Commun)
In addition, we validated genetically and pharmacologically that inhibition of PAK4 kinase activity is sufficient to improve anti-tumor efficacy of anti-PD-1 blockade in multiple melanoma mouse models. Therefore, this study provides novel insights into the mechanism of action of PAK4 inhibition and provides the foundation for a new treatment strategy that aims to overcome resistance to PD-1 blockade by combining anti-PD-1 with a small molecule PAK4 kinase inhibitor.

Comprehensive Profiling of Genomic and Transcriptomic Differences between Risk Groups of Lung Adenocarcinoma and Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma. (PubMed, J Pers Med)
The low-risk groups of both LUAD and LUSC tend to have a higher number of SNVs, CNVs, and DEGs. The signature genes and altered genes have the potential to be used as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for personalized oncology.

[VIRTUAL] Comprehensive Genomic Sequencing in Thymic Epithelial Tumors: Identification of Multiple Poor Prognosis Biomarkers in Chinese Patients (IASLC-WCLC 2020)
The most altered genes are focused on signal pathways of cell cycle control, Chromatin remodeling/DNA methylation, PI3K/AKT1/MTOR, MAP kinase signaling and others.In addition, we firstly identified multiple poor prognosis biomarkers in Chinese thymic epithelial tumors patients. These poor prognosis biomarkers are mainly enriched in cell cycle control and PI3K/AKT1/MTOR pathways.

EWSR1-PATZ1-rearranged sarcoma: a report of nine cases of spindle and round cell neoplasms with predilection for thoracoabdominal soft tissues and frequent expression of neural and skeletal muscle markers. (PubMed, Mod Pathol)
The uneventful outcome in some of our cases indicates that a subset of EPS might follow a more indolent clinical course than previously appreciated. Additional studies are needed to validate whether any morphological and/or molecular attributes have a prognostic impact.
