RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS

Cancer models: Escaping those primitive origins
p705 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.100
An embryonic avian model recapitulates the early stages of tumorigenesis and metastases seen in patients with neuroblastoma.
PDF


Tumour suppressors: Digging deeper into p53's functions
p706 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.108
Mello et al. analysed the effects of various p53 transactivation domain mutants in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and uncovered a crucial tumour-suppressive pathway in which p53 mediates inhibition of the transcriptional co-activator YAP.
PDF


Immunotherapy: Rewiring cancer cells
p706 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.112
A modular synthetic RNA-based gene circuit has been developed to program tumour cells to express a combination of immunomodulators to improve the specificity and efficacy of cancer immunotherapy.
PDF


Metabolism: More lactate, please
p707 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.101
The importance of 'Warburgian' metabolism in cancer is an increasingly disputed topic. By studying cancer metabolism in patients and mouse models, Faubert et al. now show that lactate is used as a respiratory fuel in non-small-cell lung cancer in vivo.
PDF


Tumour angiogenesis: Controlling nerves
p708 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.107
Sympathetic nerves associate with tumours and regulate the tumour microenvironment. How this innervation promotes tumorigenesis is unclear. A new study in Science shows that β-adrenergic signalling controls tumour growth by promoting tumour angiogenesis, through the regulation of vascular metabolism.

Targeting immunosuppressive adenosine in cancer
Dipti Vijayan, Arabella Young, Michele W.L. Teng & Mark J. Smyth

p709 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.86
The adenosinergic pathway is a major immunosuppressive mechanism in the tumour microenvironment. In this Review, Vijayan et al. discuss how targeting components involved in the generation and downstream signalling of extracellular adenosine represents an attractive novel cancer therapy.

Small-cell lung cancer: what we know, what we need to know and the path forward
Adi F. Gazdar, Paul A. Bunn & John D. Minna

p725 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.87
Small-cell lung cancer is an aggressive form of lung cancer and has been difficult to treat due to therapy resistance. This Review discusses challenges and recent advances in uncovering molecular changes that allow potentially efficient therapies.

Mark W. Dewhirst & Timothy W. Secomb

p738 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.93
This Review by Dewhirst and Secomb describes the current understanding of drug transport to tumour cells and the progress that has been made in developing methods to enhance drug delivery.

Preclinical mouse solid tumour models: status quo, challenges and perspectives
Nicolas Gengenbacher, Mahak Singhal & Hellmut G. Augustin

p751 | doi:10.1038/nrc.2017.92This Analysis examines preclinical mouse tumour studies published in eight scientific journals in 2016. It reviews current practices, identifies some important challenges and discusses ways in which the relevance, reproducibility and translatability of tumour models could be improved.
