Proteasome-Activating Drug Reverses Neurodegenerative Disease Symptoms in Mouse Model
Accumulation of insoluble tau protein complexes, which characterizes several types of neurodegenerative diseases, was associated with a decrease in brain proteasome peptidase activity that could be restored by treatment with a phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor drug. More...06 Jan 2016
Maintenance of a Stable Karyotype Depends on Action of a Long Noncoding RNA
A long noncoding RNA regulates cellular genomic stability by sequestering the PUMILIO proteins, which would otherwise drive chromosomal instability by repressing mitotic, DNA repair, and DNA replication factors. More...05 Jan 2016
Loss of Long Noncoding RNA Inhibits Breast Tumor Metastasis in Mouse Model
Blocking the activity of a single long noncoding RNA in malignant breast cancer mouse models transformed aggressive cancers into slow growing cyst-like tumors and reversed the metastatic process by up to 70%. More...

Inhaled Viral Capsids Trigger Systemic Antitumor Response in Mouse Model
The shells of deactivated Cowpea mosaic virus were found have potent adjuvant activity on cancer growth, which was demonstrated by the ability to block immune system suppression in the tumor microenvironment and subsequently to trigger a full-blown systemic antitumor immune response. More...04 Jan 2016

Maple Syrup Compound a Potent Anti-Inflammatory Agent
A substance that forms during the process that renders maple sap into syrup was found to have potent anti-inflammatory properties that may be developed into drugs for treatment of diseases characterized by chronic inflammation such as arthritis. More...04 Jan 2016
