Prof. Nicola Aceto: 2025 Cloëtta Prize
Professor Nicola Aceto has been awarded with the 2025 Cloëtta Prize for his groundbreaking contributions to cancer metastasis research.
Publication by Massimo Saini et al.: StealTHY: An immunogen-free CRISPR platform to expose concealed metastasis regulators in immunocompetent models.
A recent Cell paper by Saini et al. presents StealTHY, an immunogen-free CRISPR platform, enabling accurate gene discovery and revealing hidden carcinoma metastasis drivers like AMH-AMHR2 in immunocompetent models.
Publication by the Aceto Group: Macrovascular tumor infiltration and circulating tumor cell cluster dynamics in patients with cancer approaching the end of life.
A recent Nature Medicine paper by the Aceto and Ligorio groups suggests that spikes in tumor cell clusters and macrovascular infiltration are key end-of-life events in cancer, providing a rationale for future trials to block large-vessel invasion.
