More than one way to skin a tumor Posted: 17 Jun 2022 07:18 AM PDT The mechanism by which active inflammation occurs in parallel with immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment has been identified. Results showed reduced gene expression of regulatory T cell involved in immunosuppression. Cancer treatment employing EP2/EP4 inhibitors might benefit some cancer patients. |
A new hope for a therapy against retinitis pigmentosa Posted: 17 Jun 2022 07:18 AM PDT Retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative genetic disease of the eye, is characterized by progressive vision loss, usually leading to blindness. In some patients, structural defects in the photoreceptor cells have been observed, but the molecular mechanisms involved are not understood. A team has identified the essential role played by a molecular zipper formed by four proteins. The absence of this zipper leads to cell death in retinal cells. This discovery could lead to the development of therapeutic approaches for retinitis pigmentosa. |
Training virtually can reduce psychosocial stress and anxiety Posted: 17 Jun 2022 07:18 AM PDT Everyone knows that exercise brings physical and psychological benefits. A new study suggests that virtual reality exercise induces similar effects, meaning those with limited mobility may be able to improve their mental well-being. |
Scientists unravel the mystery of genes that are key to brain development Posted: 16 Jun 2022 11:27 AM PDT New research shows the mechanism by which genes coding for a subset of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) interact with neighboring genes to regulate the development and function of essential nerve cells. |
Gold ribbon not necessary: Healthy brain and body function are the rewards in this game Posted: 16 Jun 2022 07:19 AM PDT Researchers have found that even the oldest adults can benefit from a game-like intervention that targets cognitive and physical function by combining body movement with tasks that stimulate frontal, temporal, and occipital brain activity to prevent age-associated declines. |
