“Dr. Senthil Muthuswamy at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) speaks at the 2nd annual translational oncology symposium organized by Sendurai Mani at the Legorreta Cancer Center @BrownUCancer The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.
Dr. Muthuswamy spoke about the dual roles of cell polarity, interactions with oncogenes, LGL1/2 in ER/PR+ breast cancer, nutrient stress, leucine, the leucine transporter SLC7A5 interaction with LgL2, regulation of LGL2 by ER, links with mTOR and glycolytic metabolism. He also spoke organoids for personalized cancer treatment at NCI, organoids to identify tumor-targeting T-cells, and cytotoxic organoid primed T-cells. Lots of work to identify TCR-binding antigens including anti-sense Mcl1.”
