Researchers identify how melanoma redirects the immune system in cancer immunotherapy

The evolution of the refined human immune system has turned into an effective defense system against several diseases, including cancer.

Computational study of the structure and dynamics of glycosylated SARS-CoV-2

SARS-CoV-2 has been shown to enter cells by interaction with ACE2, which is found on the surface of cells in the lungs and throughout the body.

New strategy for capturing interactions among glycans and protein activators in live cells

Human cells are encased by a membrane coated with diverse sugar molecules known as glycans. These glycans play many roles in health and disease, making them important to understand.

Scientists develop novel lab testing procedure for detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies

Knowing you have developed antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus after recovering from COVID-19 doesn't tell you everything about your immunity.

Cell nucleus may enable the cells to evade crowded environments

Like people, cells in the human body protect their personal space. They seem to know how much space they need, and if it gets too tight, most cells prefer to break free.

SARS-CoV-2 may induce long-term autoimmune disorder due to self-glycan antibody production

A new study indicated that many of the unusual symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infections may be due to induced autoimmune responses.

Bioinformatics expert to design antibody-antigen interface to predict peptide sequences

Dmitri Klimov, Professor, Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, is creating a computational platform for designing an antibody-antigen interface based on DNA origami.

New tool can provide non-invasive decision support for treating lung cancer

Personalized treatment options for patients with lung cancer have come a long way in the past two decades. For patients with non-small cell lung cancer, the most common subtype of lung cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, two major treatment strategies have emerged: tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Study shows antibody levels drop rapidly in recovering COVID-19 patients

The lack of effective treatments for COVID-19 is forcing hospitals to use blood plasma from recovering patients to treat those who have severe symptoms.

19 Oct 2020

Key blood marker could offer the most effective treatment for melanoma

An Edith Cowan University (ECU) study has revealed that a key blood marker of cancer could be used to select the most effective treatment for melanoma.

Krystal binding microplates set a new standard for uniform, reproducible capture of biomolecules

Porvair Sciences new medium and high bind Krystal microplates set a new standard for uniform and reproducible capture of a wide range of biomolecules ready for affinity binding assays such as ELISA's.

Synthetic signals could help control tissue regeneration

For a tiny embryo to develop into an adult organism, its cells must develop in precise patterns and interact with their neighbors in carefully orchestrated ways.

Peptide therapy prevents overreaction of the immune system against infections

Individuals require enough action to remove offensive viruses or bacteria, but not so much that their body suffer a considerable damage.

Researchers identify drug that could overcome tumor resistance

Scientists have discovered that a drug that may make some melanoma tumors perceptible to the immune system, enabling them to be better targeted.

Lymphocytes play crucial role in controlling virus shedding in asymptomatic COVID-19 patients

COVID-19 remains stubbornly inconsistent. More than a million people have died and 35 million have been diagnosed, but a large fraction of people infected with the coronavirus--about 45%, according to recent estimates--show no symptoms at all.

15 Oct 2020

Army researchers test alternative ways to measure COVID-19 antibody levels

Researchers with the U.S. Army Futures Command are part of a team that tested alternative ways to measure COVID-19 antibody levels, resulting in a process that is faster, easier and less expensive to use on a large scale. Their method holds promise for accurately identifying potential donors who have the best chance of helping infected patients through convalescent plasma therapy.

15 Oct 2020

Virus-mimicking drugs may overcome immunotherapy resistance in tumors

Researchers at the UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have found that a drug that activates the body's natural defenses by behaving like a virus may also make certain stealthy melanoma tumors visible to the immune system, allowing them to be better targeted by immunotherapy.
