Dr. Patricia LoRusso, Amy and Joseph Perella Professor of Medicine at Yale Cancer Center and AACR President for 2024-25, shared her global view on cancer. “Cancer is a global disease—it spares no continent, no country. And each patient that gets the disease deserves treatment.” Thu, 01 May 2025 12:00:00 Z https://websites4-live-prod.ysmdevs.com/lab/nguyen/news-article/a-genetic-screen-identifies-a-new-master-regulator-of-brain-metastasis/ https://websites4-live-prod.ysmdevs.com/lab/nguyen/news-article/a-genetic-screen-identifies-a-new-master-regulator-of-brain-metastasis/ A new study from scientists at Yale School of Medicine has identified N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10), an enzyme highly expressed in brain metastasis, as a driver of brain metastasis. NAT10 primarily functions by adding acetyl groups to RNA molecules, regulating their function, stability or translation.
