Researchers identify mechanistic principles for engineering antibodies to enhance cadherin adhesion

Future treatments for advanced cancer could work by sticking cancer cells in place and preventing their spread around the body. A new study by researchers at the University of California, Davis, and the University of Washington shows how an antibody strengthens bonds between cells. The work is published Aug. 3 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Heart failure arises from mutations in distinct genes, study finds

Heart failure is a common and devastating disorder for which there is no cure. Many cardiomyopathies - conditions that make it difficult for the heart to pump blood such as dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) - can lead to heart failure, but treatments for patients with heart failure do not take these distinct conditions into account.

Extracellular vesicle-based surface protein assay likely to lead to a better way to detect early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma

Primary liver cancer, the third-leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, takes more than 30,000 lives in the United States each year. The high mortality rates can be attributed in part to the fact that a significant portion of the patients are detected at a late stage, when potentially curative treatments are no longer an option. Unfortunately, today's screening methods are not able to routinely provide accurate, early detection.

UAB researchers report a potential treatment for ARID1A-deficient bladder cancer

Metastatic bladder cancer is generally incurable, so new therapies are an urgent need. Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham now report a potential treatment for a quarter of bladder cancers.

Using native microbes as chassis for transgene delivery in live bacterial therapeutics

Residing within the human gut are trillions of bacteria and other microorganisms that can impact a variety of chronic human ailments, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, cancer, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and inflammatory bowel disease.

Scientists develop a novel, highly-efficient sample preparation method for single-cell proteomics

The proteins that make up our cells hold within an entire world of information, which, when unlocked, can give us insights into the origins of many essential biological phenomena.

HPV vaccine together with surgical treatment for cervical lesions may reduce recurrence of preinvasive disease

Giving women the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine around the time they have surgery for precancerous cervical lesions might lead to a reduction in the risk of lesions returning as well as other HPV-related diseases, suggests a study published by The BMJ today.

Optical coherence tomography combined with machine learning to develop colorectal cancer imaging tool

A research team from the lab of Quing Zhu, the Edwin H. Murty Professor of Engineering in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, has combined optical coherence tomography (OCT) and machine learning to develop a colorectal cancer imaging tool that may one day improve the traditional endoscopy currently used by doctors.
