Identifying Lung Cancer Patients Who May Not Respond Well to Immunotherapy by MYC Gene Activation

Lung cancer patients who may not react well to immunotherapy (ICB) could be identified by the oncogenic activation of MYC, an important gene in the development of cancer.

Rapid Metagenomics: A Powerful Tool for the Diagnosis of Pathogenic Organisms

According to recent research presented at this year’s European Congress of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases (ECCMID) in Copenhagen, Denmark, metagenomic sequencing can also provide quick and actionable antimicrobial resistance predictions to treat bloodstream infections much faster than traditional laboratory tests and has the potential to save lives and help manage antibiotic use (15–18 April 2023).

Immune System's B Cells Use Tugging Forces to Pull Antigens Off Other Cells' Surfaces

Most cells evolve slowly, accumulating incremental changes that better suit their environments. Immune cells, because they must adapt rapidly to counter new threats, evolve much more quickly.

Microbial Drought Resistance Could Result in Soil Carbon Losses

Soil stores more carbon than plants and the atmosphere combined, and soil microbes are largely responsible for putting it there.

A Nanoplasmonics Approach to Observe Real-Time Production of Cell Secretions

Researchers at the University of Geneva have developed a novel optical imaging approach that provides a four-dimensional view of cell secretions in real-time, including their spatial and temporal dynamics.

Potential Therapy for Lethal Pediatric Brain Cancer Using ASO Technology

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a lethal pediatric brain cancer that often kills within a year of diagnosis. Surgery is almost impossible because of the tumors' location.

Organoid Platform Could Help Reduce the Time for Developing New Conjugate Vaccines

Developing and testing new treatments or vaccines for humans almost always requires animal trials, but these experiments can sometimes take years to complete and can raise ethical concerns about the animals' treatment.

New Method for Improving Gene Therapy With Nanobubbles

Beyond vaccines, mRNA offers immense potential to fight disease, but targeting the genetic material to specific diseased cells is challenging-; requiring a new method.

Scientists Illuminate the Mechanism that Raises and Lowers PSMA Expression in Prostate Cancer

Like the better-known prostate-specific antigen (PSA), prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a biomarker that can tell physicians much about a patient's metastatic prostate cancer.

A New, Cost-Effective Therapy to Treat a Wide Range of Cancers

A potential immunotherapy method for treating metastatic melanoma is adoptive cell therapy (ACT). The method, which utilizes the use of immune cells extracted from the patient’s own tumors, could offer cancer patients new options for treatment by eschewing radiation therapies and harsh chemotherapy drugs.

Immunotherapy Response in Advanced Melanoma: Effect of Previous Treatments

According to a study conducted by UCLA, patients with advanced melanoma responded differently to PD-1 checkpoint blockade immunotherapy depending on a variety of variables, including whether or not they had previously received CTLA-4 blockade, another type of immunotherapy.

Study Establishes Two Distinct Regulatory T Cell Populations

According to a recent study headed by the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), a regulatory class of human T cells is descended from two distinct origins, one related to autoimmunity and one related to protective immunity.

Researchers Identify Antibody that may Block Infection by All Dominant SARS-CoV-2 Variants

A team led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine, the University of Wisconsin-Madison; Scripps Research and the University of Chicago has identified an antibody that appears to block infection by all dominant variants of the virus that causes COVID-19, including Omicron, the most recent.
