The role of bacteria in cancer growth

Tumor-associated microbiota is an important component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) across 33 types of human cancer. However, little evidence is available regarding the spatial distribution and localization of these microbes in tumor cells.

Rutgers scientists develop new approach to effectively shut down viral infections

Rutgers scientists have developed a new approach to stopping viral infections: a so-called live-attenuated, replication-defective DNA virus vaccine that uses a compound known as centanamycin to generate an altered virus for vaccine development.

Unusual Zika virus-specific antibody exhibits ultrapotent neutralization

An unusual type of antibody that even at miniscule levels neutralizes the Zika virus and renders the virus infection undetectable in preclinical models has been identified by a team led by Weill Cornell Medicine, NewYork-Presbyterian and National Institutes of Health (NIH) investigators.

Caregivers’ coping strategies affect their level of distress and quality of life

November is Caregiver Awareness Month, and timely findings from a study published in Blood Advances suggest that, among caregivers of patients undergoing a stem cell transplant, how someone approaches coping can influence their levels of anxiety, depression, and poor quality of life (QOL) they experience.

FDA approves first-ever type 1 diabetes delaying drug Tzield (teplizumab-mzwv)

On November 17, 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a pathbreaking new drug called Tzield. This injectable formulation contains a combination of two drugs that could push back the onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in adults at stage 3 and children aged eight years or more at stage 2.

Study reveals mechanism by which malignant cells shut down anti-cancer immune responses

A Ludwig Cancer Research study has revealed a single protein expressed at high levels by cancer cells across a broad range of malignancies that erects a multifaceted barrier to anti-cancer immune responses in mouse models of cancer and so shields tumors from immune detection and destruction.

New approach for delivering medication across the blood-brain barrier to treat brain tumors

Researchers have demonstrated in mice a new approach for delivering medication across the blood-brain barrier to treat tumors that cause aggressive, lethal brain cancer.

New gene classifier can predict the risk of cancer cells recurring or progressing

A team of researchers mapping a molecular atlas for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has made a major advance toward distinguishing whether the early pre-cancers in the breast will develop into invasive cancers or remain stable.

Study challenges a long-standing idea about the role of Hippo signaling in organ growth

The Hippo signaling pathway – a genetic program thought to play a central role in organ development – does not instruct normal organ growth in flies and mice, according to a new study.
