Easy-to-use method quantifies exosomal miRNAs

Most cancer diagnostic procedures, like endoscopies, biopsies, and mammograms, are stressful and invasive. Although blood samples may be a less unpleasant option, only a few forms of the disease can as of now be diagnosed this way.

Learning about cellular proteins through “snapshots” of translation

Pep-tRNAs, nascent polypeptides inside the ribosome that are covalently connected to transfer RNA, are engaged in a variety of cell processes, including gene expression, according to advances in molecular biology.

microRNA molecules upregulate proteins instead of dampening it

microRNAs are thought to only suppress protein expression in dividing cells, such as tumor cells, and can contribute to the development of cancer.

New tool advances potential means to deliver gene therapy

Researchers from Johns Hopkins Medicine claim to have successfully “slid” genetic instructions into a cell and produced essential proteins that were lacking from those cells using a cell’s normal process for creating proteins.

New sample pre-treatment method enables efficient protein recovery

The cells’ proteins contain a huge world of information that, when unlocked, can shed light on the causes of many fundamental biological occurrences. To observe the properties of individual cells at the protein level, a single-cell analysis method known as “single-cell proteomics” is used.

Study reveals novel mechanism used by infectious bacteria to survive stressful situations

A new study led by researchers at University of Utah Health details a novel mechanism that infectious bacteria use to quickly adjust to environmental stress. The discovery could help explain why certain types of common infections-;such as urinary tract and bloodstream infections like sepsis- are hard to get rid of.

Single-cell spatial analysis may provide information about neoadjuvant therapy for triple-negative breast cancer

A next-generation technology that allows the study of protein expression at the single-cell level and the location of the cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME) was feasible and provided information on the benefit of adding the immune checkpoint inhibitor atezolizumab (Tecentriq) to chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for patients with early high-risk and locally advanced triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), according to results presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, held December 7-10, 2021.

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.
