Why is multi-organ #metastasis so hard to treat? Is it organ ("soil")-specific or is there a #systemic program we’ve missed? 🚨 Our new preprint on @biorxiv_cancer reveals a universal, targetable niche conserved across the body. biorxiv.org/content/10.64898… 🧵👇

💊The encouraging news: We can break the circuit. Interference of the MIF-CD74 axis attenuates T cell exhaustion and impairs metastasis systemically. It’s a single target for a multi-organ problem.🎯

Check out our latest preprint, where we uncover the pro-metastatic function of PHLDA2, with interesting links to embryonic development. #metastasis @UCIrvine
Check out our new paper identifying the developmental gene PHLDA2 as a robust driver of breast cancer metastasis! Thanks to @PHalasPhD @hannysavage @_DennisMa @KessenbrockLab for all their hard work, and support from @AmericanCancer, @theNCI, & Team Michelle. @UCIMedSchool
