Study Links Cardiac Hormone-Related Inflammatory Pathway With Tumor Growth
June 28, 2013 — A cardiac hormone signaling receptor abundantly expressed both in inflamed tissues and cancers appears to recruit stem cells that form the blood vessels needed to feed tumor growth, a new study ... > full story -
Molecule Drives Aggressive Breast Cancer
June 27, 2013 — Recent studies have shown a gene known to coordinate initial development of the eye (EYA1) is a powerful breast tumor promoter in mice. The gene EYA1 was also shown to be overexpressed in a genetic ... > full story -
Scientists Discern Signatures of Old Versus Young Stem Cells
June 27, 2013 — A chemical code scrawled on histones -- the protein husks that coat DNA in every animal or plant cell -- determines which genes in that cell are turned on and which are turned off. Now, researchers ... > full story -
Research in Fruit Flies Provides New Insight Into Barrett's Esophagus
June 27, 2013 — Research focused on the regulation of the adult stem cells that line the gastrointestinal tract of Drosophila suggests new models for the study of Barrett's esophagus. Barrett's esophagus is a ... > full story -
New 'Biowire' Technology Matures Human Heart by Mimicking Fetal Heartrate
June 24, 2013 — A new method of maturing human heart cells that simulates the natural growth environment of heart cells while applying electrical pulses to mimic the heart rate of fetal humans has led researchers to ... > full story -
Targeted Viral Therapy Destroys Breast Cancer Stem Cells in Preclinical Experiments
June 24, 2013 — A promising new treatment for breast cancer has been shown in cell culture and in animal models to selectively kill cancer stem cells at the original tumor site and in distant metastases with no ... > full story -
How a Mutated Protein Outwits Evolution and Fuels Leukemia
June 20, 2013 — Scientists have discovered the survival secret to a genetic mutation that stokes leukemia cells, solving an evolutionary riddle and paving the way to a highly targeted therapy for leukemia. A new ... > full story -
Virus Combination Effective Against Deadly Brain Tumor
June 20, 2013 — A combination of the myxoma virus and the immune suppressant rapamycin can kill glioblastoma multiforme, the most common and deadliest malignant brain tumor, according to new research. Researchers ... > full story -
Sequentially Expressed Genes in Neural Progenitors Create Neural Diversity
June 19, 2013 — Biologists have found that a series of genes sequentially expressed in brain stem cells control the generation of neural diversity in visual system of fruit ... > full story -
How Neural Stem Cells Create New and Varied Neurons
June 19, 2013 — A new study examining the brains of fruit flies reveals a novel stem cell mechanism that may help explain how neurons form in ... > full story
