Golgi membrane protein drives growth and invasion of breast cancer

The cover for issue 28 of Oncotarget features Figure 5, "TMEM165 expression levels alters N-linked glycosylation," by Murali, et al., and reported that the TMEM165 protein was not detected in non-malignant matched breast tissues and was detected in invasive ductal breast carcinoma tissues by mass spectrometry.

Novel approach to analyze organ development through gene analysis in single cells

When cells develop, variations in the interaction of genes of an individual determine their fate. Such variations in genetic interactions can make the individual’s cells powerful against infection from viruses or enable the immune cells to kill the tumor cells.

Early exposure to vaccine-derived antigens can have dramatic effect on antibody diversity

University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers have added fresh evidence that early exposure to vaccine-, bacterial- or microbiota-derived antigens has a dramatic effect on the diversity of antibodies an adult mammal will have to fight future infections by pathogens.

Nano-radiomics uses imaging data to assess changes in the tumor microenvironment

Research has shown that the tumor microenvironment (TME) can help cancers grow and evade the immune response.The TME has even been shown to inhibit cellular immunotherapy, a novel form of treatment in which the cells of a patient's immune system are re-engineered in the lab to attack cancer cells.
