Single-Cell Proteomics of Localized Prostate Cancer Defines Disease Heterogeneity

Prostate cancer affects about 12.6% of men over the course of their lives, and while most individuals with localized disease can be cured, disease does recur in a small number of patients. The treatment of localized prostate cancer is based on clinicopathological information including Gleason score, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, stage, and patient age. More...

Tumor Suppressor Adenomatous Polyposis Coli Regulates T Lymphocyte Migration

Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease that often results from germline mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene, a tumor suppressor and polarity regulator. APC protein regulates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway as a component of the β-catenin destruction complex. More...

Neurofilament Light Biomarker Linked With Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease is caused by a loss of nerve cells in part of the brain called the substantia nigra. This leads to a reduction in a chemical called dopamine in the brain. Blood biomarkers may allow earlier identification of Parkinson’s disease (PD), Parkinsonism, and poor PD-related outcomes, such as physical functioning. More...

Lateral Flow Immunoassay Developed for Detecting Yersinia Pestis

Yersinia pestis is the causative agent of plague, a zoonosis associated with small mammals. Plague is a severe disease, especially in the pneumonic and septicemic forms, where fatality rates approach 100% if left untreated. More...
