A therapeutic vulnerability linking MNK1/2 inhibition and G1/S cyclin-dependent kinase blockade in triple-negative breast cancer

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a clinically challenging disease with limited therapeutic options. MAP kinase-interacting kinases 1 and 2 (MNK1/2)-mediated phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) promotes oncogenic translation and represents a potential therapeutic target. We previously showed that loss of eIF4E phosphorylation suppresses metastasis but not primary…
