Inhibition of MicroRNA Maturation Blocks Tumor Suppression

Two RNA-binding proteins, LIN28 and LIN28B, have been shown to promote cancer development by inhibiting the maturation of the let-7 family of tumor-suppressing microRNAs. More...

Treating Cancers with KRAS Mutations by Attacking Secondary Genes

To overcome drug resistance in the more than 30% of cancers linked to mutations in the KRAS gene, cancer researchers have developed a method for targeting secondary genes that are required for the survival of the cancer cell. More...

Steroid-Like Hormone Prompts Change of Morphology in Parasitic Nematodes

Researchers have identified a chemical compound that causes parasitic nematode worms to morph prematurely into the stage requiring feeding from host tissue, which results in the worms starving to death before they can establish an infection. More...

Two Cytokines Regulate Development of Immune System Memory Cells

The process of developing new vaccines should be facilitated by the discovery that two different cytokines regulate the formation of the CD8+ T-cells that "remember” pathogens and allow the immune system to quickly respond to any subsequent infection. More...
