In 2016, the lab of ACCRF grantee Dr. Brad Bernstein identified the translocation mechanism by which the MYB gene drives ACC tumors. This week, he and his colleagues published on how two populations of ACC tumor cells communicate with each other pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3645…
Fascinating article on different perspectives from surgeons on resecting primary lung cancers...likely relevant to ACC lung metastases as well statnews.com/2022/09/23/surg…
A fine multi-institutional research effort by #ACCRF grantees and collaborators at #MDAnderson, #UCCancerCenter, #BrighamWomens and #AyalaPharma pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3593…
ACCRF awarded the 2022 Kara Gelb Memorial Grant to Dr. Maxim Pimkin of @DanaFarber to study targeted protein degradation of MYB in ACC”, with the goal of finding better treatments. accrf.org/research/grants/ka…

Perhaps we need to think about Notch pathway targeting even in the absence of a NOTCH mutational status in ACC? 🧐🧬🔍👀 @AlanHoMDPhD @JeffKaufmanTwit @accrf_org @CellestiaBio @AccoiOrg
