MCG selected as designated laboratory for NCI-MATCH trial

The Georgia Esoteric and Molecular Laboratory at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University has been selected as a designated laboratory for the National Cancer Institute's Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice, or MATCH trial, which is assessing the effectiveness of targeting cancer-causing gene changes rather than cancer type.

UCLA researchers investigate how a protein factor contributes to cancer cell migration

UCLA researchers have discovered a new protein factor that contributes to a fibroblast cell's ability to migrate to a wound and participate in its healing process. The study's results could help scientists prevent cancer cells from using the same mechanisms to move throughout the body and spread.

Phase 2 STEMTRA trial using SB623 cells for treating traumatic brain injury meets primary endpoint

The SanBio Group announces today that the Phase 2 STEMTRA trial using SB623 cells for the treatment of patients with traumatic brain injury, met its primary endpoint.

Observing functional changes of cells in blood vessels may help detect early signs of atherosclerosis

A study in mice has shown that it may be possible to detect the early signs of atherosclerosis, which leads to blocked arteries, by looking at how cells in our blood vessels change their function.

UC Scientist receives NIH grant for developing new malaria therapeutic strategies

A scientist at the University of California, Riverside, who researches the malaria-causing parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, is the principal investigator, or PI, on two grants from the National Institutes of Health, or NIH, totaling nearly $6.6 million. Funding from each grant is for five years.

Research reveals how Mycoplasma pathogens sneak past our line of defense

New research reveals that Mycoplasma pathogens make DNA in a unique way that may protect them from our immune response. The result could provide new avenues to combat the pathogens that utilize this strategy.

CNIO researchers link MASTL protein to origin of thrombocytopenia

The Cell Division and Cancer Group of the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre has discovered that MASTL, the protein whose function in the organism has not yet been sufficiently investigated, plays an important role in controlling the cytoskeleton, the structure that gives shape to the cells, and enables their mobility and capacity for grouping.

UA scientists aim to identify drug targets for rare pediatric cancer

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare cancer of the skeletal muscle that primarily affects pediatric patients. After diagnosis, about 3 out of 4 patients are cured with standard treatment. Survival rates drop to 17 percent if the disease comes back (recurs) and to 30 percent if it spreads (metastasizes).

Toxic protein assemblies found to play beneficial role in muscle generation

Toxic protein assemblies, or "amyloids," long considered to be key drivers in many neuromuscular diseases, also play a beneficial role in the development of healthy muscle tissue, University of Colorado Boulder researchers have found.

Two-cells-in-one combo therapy shows promise in strengthening leukemia treatment

A cancer therapy based on fusing two types of cells into a single unit shows promise in strengthening existing treatments for acute myeloid leukemia. The approach joins blood platelets that carry cancer drugs with stem cells that guide the platelets into bone marrow where leukemia begins.

Cytokine levels could predict autoimmune reactions to cancer immunotherapy

The development of immunotherapy, which mobilizes the body's own immune system to destroy cancer cells, is one of the greatest advances in cancer treatment, but immunotherapy can cause harm to healthy tissue in some patients.

Scientists identify 'skeleton key' for congenital kidney disease research

Scientists in Japan have found a 'skeleton key' for congenital kidney disease research. Using iPS cells generated from the skin cells of a patient with a nephrin mutation, Kumamoto University scientists have successfully developed kidney tissue that exhibits the early stages of congenital kidney disease.
