Proud to share @niseto’s (new PI @TheCrick) paper: As a postdoc (@CSHL/@HopkinsMedicine), he found #NETs in necrotic tumors—I shrugged. But he looked closer: NETs block tumor vessel perfusion, causing necrosis, hypoxia, EMT & #Metastasis. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @JHU_BDP @Nature

Thrilled to share our work in Cancer Cell! Huge thanks to my PI and mentor @samuels_yardena ,OsnatBartok, and our collaborators @chrismcginnis,@Satpathology , Andreas Schlosser,@EytanRuppin & more. We reveal how impaired translation fidelity enhances anti-tumor immunity!🧵(1/8)

WOW!!! We are so excited for this! Congratulations @ErezNeta - no one is more deserving!
The @IscrFor is grateful to the outgoing president @cohen_cyrille for leading the society in the past 4 years 🌷👏🏼 We welcome the new President @ErezNeta and Vice President @ShakedYuval and look forward to their leadership! Stay tuned for information on the 2025 Annual Meeting!

From David Lyden @WeillCornell & Tran in @NatureMedicine Multi-parametric atlas of the pre-metastatic liver for prediction of metastatic outcome in early-stage #PancreaticCancer nature.com/articles/s41591-0… A challenging study design to pull off, wherein uninvolved liver is sampled during surgical resection of localized pancreatic cancer in order to profile the pre-metastatic niche and identify patterns that predict early v late liver metastases, extrahepatic recurrence or absence of recurrence. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a pivotal predictor for early liver recurrence. More evidence supporting the role of NETs in creating a seedbed for metastatic dissemination.

In Science, researchers report the characterization of a previously unidentified route by which breast cancer cells metastasize to the leptomeninges in mice. The findings could inform future therapies. 📄: scim.ag/7sW #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/7sX

My latest research highlight focuses on a recent paper from @ErezNeta group, identifying key interactions between granulocytes & T cells that promote an immunosuppressive bone microenvironment permissive to metastasis.

#ScienceSaturday When cancers spread to bone they can be especially difficult to treat. In this study, investigators found that myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) inhibit T cells in the bone microenvironment and that inhibition of the cytokine IL1beta and the immunosuppressive receptor TIGIT could reverse this immunosuppression in a #breastcancer mouse model. This study may inform future trials for patients with bone metastases. @LMonteran @NourErshaid @ErezNeta @TelAvivUni Here's a full link to the article: aacrjournals.org/cancerdisco…

Moreover, we show that TIGIT is expressed in human bone metastasis from multiple cancer types.
