Researchers identify a new target gene in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Pancreatic cancer remains one of the deadliest malignancies worldwide. Since five-year survival rate for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is only about 3% in patients, PDAC is very difficult to treat with surgery worldwide.

Activated vitamin D3 inhibits arsenic-mediated carcinogenesis in certain skin cells, research shows

According to recent estimates, over 140 million people from 50 countries regularly get exposed to arsenic through drinking water.

Researchers discover previously unknown mechanism for how 'starvation response' is triggered

Body cells burn off fat reserves when nutrient supply from food ceases. A team led by Professor Volker Haucke and Dr. Wonyul Jang from the Leibniz-Forschungsinstitut für Molekulare Pharmakologie (FMP) has now discovered a previously unknown mechanism for how this “starvation response” is triggered, and what can inhibit it.

Study lays the groundwork for developing new technologies to detect neurodegenerative diseases

Researchers from the Neurobiology of miRNA team coordinated by Davide De Pietri Tonelli at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) has discovered the correlation between a class of small RNA molecules, piRNAs, and brain inflammation.

Protein expression signature distinguishes early from late stage diffuse alveolar damage

Researchers identified a protein expression signature that can distinguish early diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) from late DAD in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.

Researchers discover how segmentation clock genes instruct the tempo of spine formation

One of the most dramatic phases of fetal development occurs as previously unstructured collections of rapidly dividing precursor cells begin forming the embryo's spine.

Olfactory viral inflammation may accelerate the onset of Alzheimer’s disease

Viruses can inflame and disrupt connections between the olfactory system, which governs the sense of smell, and the part of the brain associated with memory and learning, possibly accelerating the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new study from researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.

Two Cents' Worth: Shared decision making in renal cell carcinoma (RCC)

In this interview, we speak to Steve Pointon, patient advocate in remission from RCC, and Dr Harm van Melick, Consultant Urologist, about their experiences with shared decision-making and the impact it can have on people living with renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

Study identifies Δ42PD-1 as novel therapeutic target for hepatocellular carcinoma immunotherapy

HKUMed researchers at AIDS Institute, Department of Microbiology and Department of Surgery, School of Clinical Medicine, and School of Biomedical Sciences discover the role of an isoformic programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), namely Δ42PD-1, in suppressing the function of killer T cells, which is a type of immune cells essential for killing cancer cells among hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients.
