[PDF][PDF] MYC drives progression of small cell lung cancer to a variant neuroendocrine subtype with vulnerability to aurora kinase inhibition

G Mollaoglu, MR Guthrie, S Böhm, J Brägelmann, I Can… - Cancer cell, 2017 - cell.com
Loss of the tumor suppressors RB1 and TP53 and MYC amplification are frequent oncogenic
events in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). We show that Myc expression cooperates with …

[PDF][PDF] The lineage-defining transcription factors SOX2 and NKX2-1 determine lung cancer cell fate and shape the tumor immune microenvironment

G Mollaoglu, A Jones, SJ Wait, A Mukhopadhyay… - Immunity, 2018 - cell.com
The major types of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)—squamous cell carcinoma and
adenocarcinoma—have distinct immune microenvironments. We developed a genetic model of …

Family matters: How MYC family oncogenes impact small cell lung cancer

J Brägelmann, S Boehm, MR Guthrie, G Mollaoglu… - Cell Cycle, 2017 - Taylor & Francis
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is one of the most deadly cancers and currently lacks effective
targeted treatment options. Recent advances in the molecular characterization of SCLC …

P53 is a direct regulator of the immune co-stimulatory molecule CD80

E Alibo, G Mollaoglu, M Dhainaut, R Zhao, S Rose… - bioRxiv, 2021 - biorxiv.org
Increasing evidence indicates oncogenes and tumor suppressors not only influence cell
fitness but can also control the immunophenotype of cells. Here, we examined how 34 …

Abstract PR005: Identification of DNA Damage Repair genes controlling the immune landscape of breast tumors via spatial functional genomics

P Suri, J Habib, G Mollaoglu, L Pia, A Baccarini… - Cancer Research, 2024 - AACR
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has revolutionized the field of cancer immunology, yet
only 17-20% of patients who receive this treatment derive any clinical benefit. There is an …

Abstract B075: Spatial genomics identifies cancer cell cytokines regulating ovarian cancer immunity

G Mollaoglu, A Tepper, H Potak, L Pia, A Amabile… - Cancer Research, 2024 - AACR
Ovarian cancer (OvCa) is among the most aggressive and lethal cancers with a poor response
to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) despite its modest tumor mutational burden and …
