LSD1 and CoREST2 Potentiate STAT3 Activity to Promote Enteroendocrine Cell Differentiation in Mucinous Colorectal Cancer.

Neuroendocrine cells have been implicated in therapeutic resistance and worse overall survival in many cancer types. Mucinous colorectal cancer (mCRC) is uniquely enriched for enteroendocrine cells (EEC), the neuroendocrine cells of the normal colon epithelium, as compared with non-mCRC. Therefore, targeting EEC differentiation may have clinical value in mCRC.

Single-cell multi-omics reveals insights into differentiation of rare cell types in mucinous colorectal cancer.

Neuroendocrine cells have been implicated in therapeutic resistance and worse overall survival in many cancer types. Mucinous colorectal cancer (mCRC) is uniquely enriched for enteroendocrine cells (EECs), the neuroendocrine cell of the normal colon epithelium, as compared to non-mucinous CRC. Therefore, targeting EEC differentiation may have clinical value in mCRC.
