Study finds correlations between how and which organ systems are affected in individuals with new epileptic disorder

A recent study from Texas Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine has expanded the clinical spectrum of a new epileptic disorder called Intellectual Developmental Disorder with Macrocephaly, Seizures, and Speech Delay (IDDMSSD) with the identification of the first recurrently affected residue identified in the protein kinase domain of PAK1 protein.

CD9-positive exosomes inhibit the growth of malignant melanoma, study suggests

Malignant melanoma is a relatively aggressive type of skin cancer. When detected early, it is usually treatable by surgical resection only, but metastases develop often spreading to distant areas.

Candida auris escapes innate immunity through metabolic reprogramming

A team of scientists from Australia and Israel demonstrates that Candida auris, a fungus associated with life-threatening and drug-resistant infections, escapes the host's innate immune response by destroying macrophages through metabolic reprogramming. The fungus is also capable of escaping antimicrobial inflammatory response.

Tetravalent COVID vaccine provides broad antibody responses against SARS-CoV-2 variants in animal model

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers in Italy and the United States evaluated the efficacy and immunogenicity of an adjuvanted tetravalent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike (S) protein subunit 1 (S1) COVID-19 vaccine.

Researchers identify the cellular glitches underlying a rare genetic disorder

The cellular glitches underlying a rare genetic disorder called activated PI3K Delta syndrome 2 (APDS2) have been identified by researchers at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research. The disorder is caused by genetic variations that disrupt immune cell signaling through a protein called PI3K.

Embryonic stem cells used to recreate thyroid cancer histotypes

A recent Nature Communications study revealed the recapitulating capacity of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to elucidate the cellular hierarchy of the thyroid gland. Furthermore, these cells possessed the capacity to reproduce the oncogenic process using the CRISPR-based genetic editing method.
