Cancer cells get power boost by stealing mitochondria from nerves Nature - The theft probably helps the cells to spread around the body, and preventing it could provide a path to treatment, researchers say.

Cancer cells turbocharge themselves by stealing the energy-producing units from neurons in tumours

Institut Cochin

The 4th of February is commemorated as World Cancer Day.
Cancer research is a strong focus of the Institut Cochin, with 15 teams involved in the studying molecular and cellular mechanisms that favor the development of cancers. A major aim of our research is to develop novel therapies.

We are looking for PhD students and/or postdocs that want to join us to study the metabolism of metastasizing cancer cells with cutting-edge spatial and single cell technologies.

This is figure 2, which shows the systematic evaluation of the effectiveness and risks of incident use of GLP-1RAs compared to incident use of sulfonylureas, DPP4 inhibitors SGLT2 inhibitors and a control group composed of equal proportions of sulfonylureas, DPP4 inhibitors and SGLT2 inhibitors.

The use of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) may be associated with a broad spectrum of health effects, including decreased risk for 42 health outcomes and increased risk of 19 health outcomes, according to a study in Nature Medicine. https://go.nature.com/3ClpHHx #Medsky 🧪

This is HUGE !!!

Mapping the metabolomic impact of pharmacological agents enables dissecting their mechanism of action in an unbiased manner.

Congrats to @zampierilab.bsky.social and all involved for opening such major avenues for the deciphering of drug polypharmacology 🤩

Organelle transfer is an area of biology that never ceases to amaze. A lot of creative mechanisms that cancer cells could teach us for avoiding immunogenicity.

Cancer cells ‘poison’ the immune system with tainted mitochondria Immune cells lose their cancer-fighting prowess after taking tumours’ organelles on board.

Cancer cells can poison attacking immune cells by filling them with defective mitochondria ― dampening the body’s defensive forces and helping the tumour to evade eradication

Diet-wide analyses for risk of colorectal cancer: prospective study of 12,251 incident cases among 542,778 women in the UK - Nature Communications Colorectal cancer has been linked to multiple environmental factors, however, the role of diet remains incompletely understood. Here, the authors complete a diet-wide association study and identify a potentially protective role of dairy intake in colorectal cancer incidence, driven largely by calcium.

Inter-organ communication is a critical machinery to regulate metabolism and aging Inter-organ communication (IOC) is a complex mechanism involved in maintaining metabolic homeostasis and healthy aging. Dysregulation of distinct forms of IOC is linked to metabolic derangements and age-related pathologies, implicating these processes as a potential target for therapeutic intervention to promote healthy aging. In this review, we delve into IOC mediated by hormonal signaling, circulating factors, organelle signaling, and neuronal networks and examine their roles in regulating metabolism and aging. Given the role of the hypothalamus as a high-order control center for aging and longevity, we particularly emphasize the importance of its communication with peripheral organs and pave the way for a better understanding of this critical machinery in metabolism and aging.
