Researchers uncover protein linked to breast cancer metastasis

Jean-François Côté, a researcher at the Montreal Clinical Research Institute and professor at Université de Montréal's Faculty of Medicine, studies metastasis, the leading cause of cancer-related death. Recently, his team uncovered a protein that, once deactivated, could prevent the development of metastases in an aggressive type of cancer, HER2-positive breast cancer.

Penn State professor receives NSF CAREER award to study mechanobiology of cell differentiation

Esther Gomez, assistant professor of chemical engineering and biomedical engineering, Penn State, has received the National Science Foundation's prestigious Early Career award to better understand the mechanobiology of mesenchymal-epithelial transition.

Key metabolites shed by gut bacteria can help protect from inflammation, study finds

Researchers at Tufts University have elucidated a mechanism by which the "good" bacteria that reside in our gastrointestinal tract can help protect us from inflammation, and how their disruption (dysbiosis) can increase the susceptibility of the liver to more harmful forms of disease.

Researchers shed new light on identity of brain stem cells

The human nervous system is a complex structure that sends electrical signals from the brain to the rest of the body, enabling us to move and think. Unfortunately, when brain cells are damaged by trauma or disease they don't automatically regenerate. This can lead to permanent disability.

UTSW study provides insight into potential new therapeutic approaches for skin diseases

Research at UT Southwestern has shown that targeting metabolism in growing cells holds promise for the treatment of skin diseases like psoriasis that are characterized by skin overgrowth resulting from excess cell division, known as hyperproliferation.

Surprising discovery offers new model for studying role of gap junctions in the brain

The same kind of neurons can have completely different wiring diagrams in the rat and mouse, as mice lack intercellular molecular channels known as gap junctions, researchers at Karolinska Institutet report in the scientific journal eLIFE.

Keck School of Medicine of USC wins two grants to support osteoarthritis research

A researcher at the Keck School of Medicine of USC has been awarded two grants totaling more than $4 million to support osteoarthritis research.

Stiff tissue can present microenvironment susceptible to tumor growth, says study

Stiffer breast tissue creates an environment more prone to cancer by enabling the disease to interfere with the surrounding healthy cells, according to a recent study published in Biomaterials.

Ocular oncologists link immunotherapy with potentially vision-robbing side effect

New immunotherapy treatments offer a remarkable chance for survival for patients with advanced melanoma and hard-to-treat cancers of the bladder, kidney and lung.

Targeted 'click-to-release' chemotherapy leads to potent antitumor activity in mice

Antibody Drug Conjugates are relatively new anti-cancer drugs. They consist of an antibody to which a cell-killing molecule (chemotherapy) is attached. Antibodies can recognize and bind to certain receptors (the 'hands' on the outside of a cell) in a very targeted way.

Scientists successfully test anti-alcoholism drug in animal models

Scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have successfully tested in animals a drug that, they say, may one day help block the withdrawal symptoms and cravings that incessantly coax people with alcoholism to drink.

Genes that control the immune system may play role in hair graying

A study has found a link between genes that warn our bodies of a pathogenic infection and genes that play a role in determining hair color.

Study shows how bacterial toxins can cripple normal cellular activity

Bacterial toxins can wreak mass havoc within cells by shutting down multiple essential functions at once, a new study has found.

Researchers uncover new details on how the cerebellum predicts and learns from mistakes

In studies with monkeys, Johns Hopkins researchers report that they have uncovered significant new details about how the cerebellum -- the "learning machine" of the mammalian brain -- makes predictions and learns from its mistakes, helping us execute complex motor actions such as accurately shooting a basketball into a net or focusing your eyes on an object across the room.
