The Bothwell Lab has a brand new publication out now! Our fabulous graduate student @HaleyMarcarian investigates protein and DNA trafficking in renal cancers. Read now: journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

Renal cancer cells acquire immune surface protein through trogocytosis and horizontal gene transfer

Trogocytosis is an underappreciated phenomenon that shapes the immune microenvironment surrounding many types of solid tumors. The consequences of membrane-bound proteins being deposited from a donor...
