Yeast platform for the production of plant-derived anti-cancer drug

The supply of a plant-derived anti-cancer drug can finally meet global demand after a team of scientists from Denmark and the U.S. engineered yeast to produce the precursor molecules, which could previously only be obtained in trace concentrations in the native plant.

A “stress test” with a previously unknown gene to revive the exhausted T cells

The task of battling cancer cells can fatigue T cells employed in immunotherapy treatments, or they could shut down once they penetrate tumors. Researchers at the Gladstone Institutes and UC San Francisco have strengthened the therapeutic cells’ resistance via a CRISPR-based edit on their genomes.

Study explains the dynamics underlying liver damage

The immune system may attack the liver when fat builds up there. The chemical that triggers these responses has been discovered by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers in a recent study, and this information helps to explain the dynamics of liver damage that can accompany type 2 diabetes and obesity.
