@CR_AACR @CD_AACR @ETH We are honored to see our @CD_AACR paper on #Glycosylation of #breast #circulating #tumor cell clusters discussed in the Spotlight Commentary by Nicola Aceto @CR_AACR. Thanks to the Liu Cluster hero @DNurmaa who did the work @LurieCancer @NUFeinbergMed. https://t.co/JHPYVDFW4q

@LurieCancer Thanks for highlighting our collaborative research on #CTC #breastcancer look forward to translating breakthroughs into clinical impact @LurieCancer

“We can cure primary tumors by surgery or radiation. However, when tumor cells start spreading from one place to another, they can get out of control. A lot of times it is devastating and incurable,” Huiping Liu, MD, PhD (@LiuCluster), said.

“It’s a very significant problem in the clinic and also affects patient outcomes and survival time.” https://t.co/KlmvANzVBU

@NU_IntMed @ScienceTM Thanks to the collaborators @CtcLaboratory @ReduzziCarol and lab heroes who made the work. I'm grateful for the institutional support @NU_IntMed @nupharm1 @LurieCancer @NorthwesternU

[NU Internal Medicine @NU_IntMed]

Shout out to @LiuCluster who was co-author of a study published in @ScienceTM on how a group of cancer cells circulating the bloodstream may play a bigger role in breast cancer progression.

We are delighted to celebrate the election of our esteemed colleague, Dr. Joe Bass, @JoeBass91471540 to the @theNAMedicine. This honor recognizes his outstanding contributions to the field of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Molecular Medicine, and his pioneering research elucidating the critical links between the body’s circadian rhythms and metabolic regulation. Dr. Bass’s groundbreaking work has revealed how disruptions in the circadian system contribute to metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity. This election represents a well-deserved and long-overdue recognition of Dr. Bass’s exceptional scientific achievements and his profound impact on the field. Congratulations, Joe, on this remarkable and richly merited honor. @NU_BMG_SQE @NUFeinbergMed @theNASciences

This is intriguing work coming from @LurieCancer, highlighting critical cellular dynamics that could be pivotal in addressing metastasis in #breastcancer. With cancer cells leveraging immune cell interactions for spread, what implications does this have for developing targeted therapies?

Can we root out the seeds of metastasis?

@LiuCluster & team @NUFeinbergMed identify a rare T cell subset that cluster circulating tumor cells to promote metastasis in breast cancer, then provide a proof-of-concept block using VLA-4 antibody in preclinical models: https://t.co/oZd0wUe2tc

Huiping Liu, MD, PhD (@LiuCluster), and team reveal how tumor–immune cell clusters fuel #BreastCancer metastasis in a pair of new studies published in @NatureComms and @jclinicalinvest. https://t.co/nISnPzEK9W

[Lurie Cancer Center @LurieCancer]

In a pair of studies, investigators from the lab of @LurieCancer's Huiping Liu, MD, PhD, have uncovered how cellular interactions in the bloodstream may be fueling the spread of #breastcancer. https://t.co/XavmgB0ecg via @NUFeinbergMed #CTC #BTSM
