The Fallopian Tube’s Secret Bodyguards 🛡️ I am thrilled to share our lab’s latest study which flips the script on how we think about the origins of ovarian cancer. For a long time, ciliated cells in the fallopian tube were seen as "passive bystanders" in tumor development. Our research reveals they are actually active guardians of genomic integrity. We found that these cells use a STING-driven surveillance mechanism to act as a biological "cleanup crew," clearing away damaged cells before they can turn into high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). When these "gatekeepers" are lost, the door swings wide open for cancer to initiate. This discovery shifts our understanding of the epithelial microenvironment and points toward new strategies for early prevention. aacrjournals.org/cancerres/arti… @UMich @UMRogelCancer @CR_AACR @UMichPath

Harini Ram, undergraduate @umichLSA student in the @DiFeoLab, was recently awarded the 2025 Astronaut Scholarship from the @AstroScholarFdn, an award presented to students pursuing a STEM field to conduct research upon completion of their degree. Ram, the only student from @UMich to receive the award, is currently working on ovarian cancer research where she is studying miR-181a and MYC-mediated metabolic reprogramming in the tumor microenvironments of high-grade serous carcinomas. Her goal is to obtain her medical degree and PhD in a Medical Scientist Training program after graduation. #GoBlue #UMichPath Read more👉 michmed.org/RBMPy
