Amazing work presented by my friend and MD Anderson Cancer Center co-fellow Cindy Y. Jiang on the 9p21-loss story in bladder cancer. Targeting the TGFB pathway may be the path forward for improving outcomes in this aggressive cancer type! #ASCO25

Proud of our hem/onc fellow Cindy Y. Jiang (comentored with Linghua Wang, MD, PhD and #JJGao) advancing our understanding on #MTAPloss in #bladdercancer. We describe tropism to the lung and hypothesize signaling through TGFb/SMAD3.

🚨 important study. Running randomized controlled diet studies is really difficult bcz you provide the day meals to both arms and you control the snacks too. Even though it’s not easy to be on a high fiber diet, the data seems supportive ⏫IO efficacy and ⏬tox! #youarewhatyoueat
