Gene Therapy Reactivates Cell Death Pathways in Cervical Cancer Cells
A team of molecular virologists has presented evidence demonstrating the possibility of developing anticancer therapies based on viral vectors that transfect carcinoma cells with RNA-protein complexes capable of reactivating genes in the cancer cells that cause cell cycle arrest and eventual cell death.

DNA Replication Difficulty May Be Key to Immune System Aging
People over 60 are not donor candidates for bone marrow transplantation; the immune system ages and weakens with time, making the elderly predisposed to life-threatening infection and other disorders. US researchers have now have found a reason. More...13 Aug 2014
Theraclone Partners with Gilead Sciences for Neutralizing HIV Antibody Technology
Theraclone Sciences, a therapeutic antibody discovery and development company, has entered into an agreement with Gilead Sciences, under which Gilead received an exclusive license to develop and commercialize products integrating Theraclone’s broadly neutralizing HIV-antibodies for therapeutic applications in HIV.

Crystal Structures Define Mode of Action of Bacteriophage Endolysins
New antibacterial agents based on bacteriophages or their endolysin enzymes have been proposed to solve the problem of the bacterium Clostridium difficile, which is becoming a serious health hazard in hospitals and healthcare institutes, due to its resistance to antibiotics. More...13 Aug 2014
Factors in the Tumor Microenvironment Promote Cancer Growth and Metastasis
Cancer researchers have found that procancerous HSF1 drives a transcriptional program in cancer-associated fibroblasts that complements, yet is completely different from, the program it drives in adjacent cancer cells. More...13 Aug 2014
