Stem Cells Loaded with Oncolytic Herpes Virus Destroy Brain Tumors in Mouse Model
Cancer researchers treated mouse models of the human brain tumor glioblastoma multiforme by injecting the animals with stem cells loaded with oncolytic herpes virus and treated virus-resistant tumors with oncolytic herpes viruses genetically engineered to express the proapoptotic cytokine TRAIL.

Aspirin Use for Heart Disease Prevention May Benefit Those with Coronary Artery Calcium Deposits
A recent study found that taking aspirin to prevent heart disease benefits individuals with high coronary artery calcium scores but can actually cause damage from bleeding in individuals with low levels of coronary artery calcium. More...21 May 2014

Melanoma May Be Triggered by Deficit of Retinoid-X-Receptors in Melanocytes
Cancer researchers have linked the development of the deadly skin cancer melanoma to depressed expression in melanocytes of the type II nuclear receptors Retinoid-X-Receptor alpha and Retinoid-X-Receptor beta. More...20 May 2014
