Translational Molecular Pathology

Our group aims to unravel the molecular mechanisms of cancer progression and metastasis to identify new diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic targets in cancer. By combining the knowledge and availability of human tumors in the Pathology department with the expertise of the basic molecular cell biology research group, we focus on:

  • Understanding: the molecular mechanisms underlying clonal cooperation and intercellular communication in heterogeneous tumors.
  • The role of MNK kinases in cellular stress resistance.
  • The role of ITGB3 in intercellular communication via extracellular vesicles in cancer metastasis (Santiago Ramon y Cajal).
  • The role of direct cell-cell communication via gap junctions and intercellular protrusions in cancer (Trond Aasen)
  • The malignant transition of Plexiform Neurofibromas (Cleofe Romagosa).

On World Cancer Research Day, we highlight the oncology research model of the Vall d'Hebron Campus that allows laboratory results to be transferred as quickly as possible to clinical practice.

Vall d’Hebron ha celebrat avui la Jornada del Dia Mundial contra el Càncer, una malaltia cada cop més freqüent que patiran al llarg de la vida un de cada dos homes i una de cada tres dones del nostre entorn.

The multidisciplinary paper on papillary thyroid cancer has been considered the best original article of 2021 in the journal Endocrinología, Diabetes y Nutrición
