Study explains why cancers stop responding to kinase inhibitors and come back stronger

More than 70 FDA-approved cancer drugs are kinase inhibitors, which work by blocking kinases-;enzymes that add phosphate groups to molecules in the cell-;and preventing the chemical activity necessary for signaling and growth in cancer cells.

New gene helps drive the development of the common lung cancer type

At the NYU Langone Health’s Perlmutter Cancer Center, a team headed by scientists has determined a gene that forces the development of the second most common type of lung carcinoma.

Revealing the mechanism that ensures genome stability in normal cells

To create new cells, the old cells must divide. This is a constant, frequent, and pervasive process that begins with conception and culminates with death.

A new outlook on sow breeding using dietary nucleotides

The primary fetal organ systems’ growth and development are strongly influenced by the nutrition status of the mother. Late gestation is when fetal growth is rapidly accelerated, and the nutritional needs of sows rise dramatically as a result of the fetus’ rapid growth and the placenta’s quick expansion.

Researchers developed a weapon to combat drug-resistant malaria

As the efficiency of conventional antimalarial medications deteriorates, a novel approach to combating malaria that sees the disease turn against itself could provide a viable treatment for the hundreds of millions of people affected globally every year.

Epigenetic regulator helps determine lung cancer patients and their resistance to drugs

Doctors commonly use tyrosine kinase inhibitors, particularly epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, to cure patients with non-small cell lung cancer, a common and typically deadly kind of cancer that accounts for 80% to 85% of lung cancers.

Discovery of chiral evasion could lead to more resilient inhibitors, better drug designs

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterial infection that has become resistant to most of the antibiotics used to treat regular staph infections.

Targeting Shp2 as a cancer therapy may worsen the disease

In recent years, much scientific effort and funding has focused on developing drugs that target an enzyme with the unwieldy name of Src homology 2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 or more briefly, Shp2.

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.

Targeted drug shows promise against brain metastases from kidney cancer

A targeted drug has shown promising activity against brain metastases resulting from kidney cancer, achieving a 50 percent response rate, and supporting further studies of the drug in this patient group whose poor prognosis has created a significant unmet need.

Research reveals involvement of secretory granules in Parkinson’s disease

Recent research states that the number of secretory granules (SGs) in tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons and the marker proteins secretogranin III substantially lowered in the substantia nigra and striatum regions of mice exposed to 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine.
