Stem Cell Protein Promotes Formation of New Blood Vessels in Aggressive Breast Cancer
A protein that functions in the developing embryo and is characteristic of embryonic stem cells has been found also to be active in an aggressive form of breast cancer where it promotes development of new blood vessels for the rapidly growing tumor. More...16 Aug 2012
Dietary Phenethyl Isothiocyanate Slows Tumor Progression in Mouse Breast Cancer Model
Addition of a natural plant compound to the diet of a breast cancer-mouse model slowed the development of tumors by preventing the formation of new blood vessels and by inducing apoptosis of the cells making up the tumors. More...16 Aug 2012
B Cells from MS Patients Secrete Substances Toxic to Myelin Sheath Producing Cells
B-cells from patients with multiple sclerosis produce and secrete one or more substances that are toxic for brain oligodenrocytes, the type of glial cell that forms and supports the myelin sheath around axons in the central nervous system. More...15 Aug 2012
