Paving the Way for a New Lab-Grown Meat

In this interview, we speak to Professor Kelly Schultz and colleagues about their latest research that has led to the development of a new lab-grown meat.

Olfactory receptor gene may drive breast cancer metastasis to the brain

An olfactory receptor gene that aids in the sense of smell may also play a role in the metastasis of breast cancer to the brain, bones and lung, researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital have found.

Researchers grow intestinal organoids to study why bats infected with viruses do not succumb to diseases

Experiments attempting to explain why bats can be infected with many viruses at a time without succumbing to diseases such as COVID-19-;knowledge that could help us to reduce the threat to humans of infectious disease-;have struggled until now with the fact that live wild bats make poor research subjects.

Study uncovers mechanism that triggers cancer cell death

Scientists recently pinpointed the mechanism by which inhibitors of the ERK5 protein kinase diminish cancer cell proliferation and trigger their death.

Researchers successfully generated Leydig cells from human iPS cells

Scientists recently succeeded in creating Leydig cells from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells.

Novel therapeutic approach forces cancer cells to dormancy, prevents metastasis

A novel therapeutic approach inhibits the growth of metastatic tumors in mice by coercing cancer cells into a dormant state—where they cannot proliferate.

25 Nov 2021

New technique anticipated to deliver personalized immunotherapies for cancer

Recent research led to a very effective technique to create many immune cells particularly engineered to identify neoantigens.

CRISPR screening identifies metabolic enzyme as new target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics

A metabolic enzyme that has been studied in cancer biology and is important for T cell function may offer a new target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics, Vanderbilt researchers have discovered.

Genetic analysis reveals the deep homology between fins and limbs

All vertebrates have the same basic body plan: head, spine, four appendages. Those appendages vary greatly in size, shape, and function, of course -; from fins to wings, arms, and legs -; but a new genetic analysis shows that genes that control development at the ends of the appendages share a deep evolutionary history.

Research uncovers key component of cellular malfunction that contributes to tumor growth

Scientists have homed in on a crucial step within the sequence of chemical reactions that govern regulation of cell division, proliferation and death, and whose malfunction contributes to the growth of tumors.

Study sheds light on the regulation of epigenetic modifications during the development

The hereditary material, DNA, interacts with proteins present in the cell nuclei and forms a tightly packed complex with proteins called “chromatin”.

Consecutive irradiation with two lasers results in increased stem cell proliferation and differentiation

Stem cell therapy needs a lot of human cells, of a specific type. Shining a near-infrared laser on adult stem cells derived from human body fat, makes the stem cells replicate 54% faster.

Junk DNA' plays a crucial role in early embryonic development in all mammals, study shows

Nearly half of our DNA has been written off as junk, the discards of evolution: sidelined or broken genes, viruses that got stuck in our genome and were dismembered or silenced, none of it relevant to the human organism or human evolution.

Scientists discover how thousands of tiny anchors help the cells stay put and resist disruptions

Most of the cells in our bodies – be they bone, muscle or pancreas cells – are locked into the right place with the help of tiny anchors (called 'focal adhesions').

Study identifies molecular mechanisms that promote cell-to-cell adhesion, communication

Scientists headed a new study that determined the molecular mechanisms inside protein complexes that support cell-to-cell adhesion and communication.

Research provides a detailed 'proteogenomic' view of lung squamous cell carcinoma

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-associated death in the United States and worldwide. Patients with a subtype called lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have benefited from the development of new targeted medicines, but the search for effective new therapies for another subtype called lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) has largely come up short.
