First Lab Tweet! Proud of our team. @Babbling8rooke @Freeman_DW @Elnaz_MM and Ozlen Balcioglu. Picking up some retro-accomplishments on this first one 😁. Brooke and David passing prelims. Yay! Also: breast-cancer-research.biome…

CRIPTO antagonist ALK4L75A-Fc inhibits breast cancer cell plasticity and adaptation to stress

Breast Cancer Research - CRIPTO is a multi-functional signaling protein that promotes stemness and oncogenesis. We previously developed a CRIPTO antagonist, ALK4L75A-Fc, and showed that it causes...
