Many thanks to the organizers of "Persister Cells: From Bacteria to Cancer" @helloeacr.bsky.social for the opportunity to present our results on CRC persistence. Excited about our group’s strong representation which allowed us to establish new collaborations. Looking forward to next year’s event!

DPPA3-HIF1α axis controls colorectal cancer chemoresistance by imposing a slow cell-cycle phenotype Cuesta-Borràs et al. show that chemotherapy induces a hypoxia response by increasing DPPA3 levels in cancer cells, which in turn promotes a chemoresistant proliferative-delayed state. Our findings ide...

On this #WorldCancerDay, I want to revisit our published work on DPPA3 as a key regulator of therapy-resistant slow-cycling cancer cells that drive colorectal cancer persistence and relapse.
