Heating up tumours could make CAR T therapy more effective
When a heating technique called photothermal ablation was combined with the infusion of CAR T cells, it suppressed melanoma tumour growth for up to 20 days in mice...
Scientists home in on microRNA processing for cancer therapies
Research on the mda-7/IL-24 gene has shown that it helps to suppress a majority of cancer types, and now scientists are focusing on how the gene drives this process by influencing microRNAs...
Over 400 genes associated with schizophrenia identified
Researchers have identified new genes associated with schizophrenia and pinpointed the areas of the brain in which abnormal expression might occur...
CRISPR-Chip enables digital detection of DNA without amplification
Researchers have found multiple applications for the CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspersed Short Palindromic Repeats) gene editing technology since it came into use by the scientific community...
The key to greater efficacy in cancer treatment?
Mitochondria are found to be associated with the effectiveness of oncological drug therapies...
Paving the path towards precision medicine
A method to view the immune cell 'landscape' of bowel cancer tumours could pave the way towards more individualised medicine and treatment...
Epigenetic protein could be new therapeutic target in acute myeloid leukemia
The epigenetic protein, EZH2, was found to delay the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) but also switches sides to maintain tumour growth...
Ticagrelor reversal agent provides immediate and sustained relief
A reversal agent that sustains immediate relief from the side effects of ticagrelor stopping major bleeding, such as gastrointestinal hemorrhage...
USP15 enzyme could have role in the future treatment of cancer
Researchers have found that the enzyme USP15 could potentially lead to new therapies for both breast and pancreatic cancer...
Non-invasive imaging for small airway lung disease
A non-invasive method of imaging tiny bronchioles in the lungs of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease means patients could detect the disease earlier...
Machine-learning model to analyse protein sequences
A machine-learning model has been developed to analyse protein sequences, giving an insight to their structure, function and phylogeny...
Optical imaging technique to detect tiny tumours
A method of imaging using longer wavelengths could mean that tiny tumours and clusters of cancer cells may be detected earlier than current methods allow...
Potential EBV-associated cancer treatment in small molecule inhibitors
A small molecule inhibitor has been observed to activate a dramatic reduction in tumour growth in EBV-associated tumours...
Salamander gene partnerships could help spinal cord regeneration
Gene partnerships found in salamander could give insights into how spinal cord injuries and neurodegenerative conditions could be better treated...
