Scientists get a clearer and more accurate image of proteins

Proteins are among the most significant and diverse biomolecules found in living organisms. These strings of amino acids, which take on complex 3-dimensional structures, are required for tissue growth and maintenance, the activation of thousands of biochemical events, and the immune system’s defense against invaders.

Study shows how G protein-coupled receptors signal helps drug development

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), membrane proteins that are the target of one-third of approved drugs, are being studied by scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Columbia University/New York State Psychiatric Institute.

Researchers discover protein that enhances muscle mass

Humans are not just pumping iron in the gym, or not just oxygenating muscle cells, which keeps those muscles healthy, powerful, and developing—a process known as hypertrophy—that is defined as an increase in muscle mass, caused by an increase in muscle cell size.

Study identifies novel targets for treating sorafenib-resistant hepatocellular carcinoma

Research headed by Professor Xiujun Cai used the CRISPR/cas9 system to screen the entire genome of hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2) under sorafenib treatment.

Researchers discover how new techniques may alter the synaptic connection of neurons

The brain has the potential to change the way neurons communicate with one another. That is how it prevents out-of-control brain activity. Scientists have discovered a mechanism that plays a key role in this.

Study identifies new targets for treating sorafenib-resistant hepatocellular carcinoma using CRISPR-Cas9 screening

This study is led by Xiujun Cai (Department of General Surgery, Sir Run-Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine). Professor Xiujun Cai's research team screened the whole genome of hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2) through CRISPR / cas9 system under sorafenib treatment, and screened the dominant gene in sorafenib resistance.
