Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element-Binding Proteins Regulate Pathologic Angiogenesis in Chronic Liver Diseas
A team of molecular biologists has identified a pathway that regulates the pathologic expression of VEGF, the main effector protein in the development of blood vessels, and angiogenesis in chronic liver disease. More...03 Jan 2016

Modification of Integrin Ligand Receptors May Lead to Personalized Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment
Chemical modification of the guanidine group was used to modify the receptor subtype specificity for the integrin ligand cilengitide, which is an advance that may lead to patient-specific diagnoses and subsequent targeted treatment of tumor cells. More...03 Jan 2016
Nanobridges Transport Pro-Metastatic MicroRNAs from Cancer Cells to Surrounding Normal Tissues
Scanning electron microscope images revealed that spreading breast cancer cells generated "nanobridges" to connect to surrounding endothelial cells in order to transfect them with pro-metastatic microRNA molecules. More...30 Dec 2015

Multiple Copies of RNA Editing Enzyme Gene Promote Lung Cancer Growth
A gene that codes for an enzyme that modulates RNA editing is present in multiple copies in non-small-cell lung cancer cells where they stimulate growth and cell division and indicate a poor prognosis for patients that carry them. More...30 Dec 2015
