So excited to share our new paper out in @Nature led by the fabulous @AnaisElewaut and @guillemxtivill providing mechanistic insights into anti-tumor immunity and why it may fail in so many patients! Sky-torial on @obenaufa.bsky.social
#Immunotherapy has transformed #cancer treatment, but some cancers evade immune defenses, causing resistance. @obenaufa's lab has discovered how inflammatory monocytes—a type of immune cell—can reactivate cancer-killing T cells within tumors. Read more: https://t.co/aMobZqirct

Very interesting new insight into the genetics of renal cancer!
Our study on sex differences in Xp11 translocation renal cell carcinoma is out @CellCellPress! We ascribe a genetic basis to the female bias in tRCC, which is driven by a translocation of the TFE3 gene on the X chromosome. w Zhang lab @danafarbernews
