Human blood vessels transplanted in mice reveal COVID-19 coagulation molecule

Oct. 6, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
Recently, researchers at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, in collaboration with colleagues in Japan, have developed a human vascular organoid model that accurately mimics the vascular damage caused by SARS-CoV-2.

Mitochondrial reprogramming increases antitumor immune response

Sep. 26, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
Mitochondria regulate many processes that are altered in cancer cells, from metabolism to oxidative stress to apoptosis. The metabolic reprogramming in cancer cells promotes an immunosuppressive environment that drives cancer progression. However, in a recent study, researchers from the Salk Institute of Biological Sciences have identified succinate as a metabolite that accumulated due to specific disturbances in the mitochondrial electron transport chain.

Damaged lungs can be renewed by engrafting stem cells

Aug. 28, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
One of the key advances in regenerative medicine has been the engraftment of external epithelial stem cells to supplement or replace damaged native cells. However, the difficulty in engrafting internal tissues has hindered the long-term rescue of diseased internal epithelia, such as those in the respiratory airways.

Wound healing chemokine can improve learning and memory in old mice

Aug. 17, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
Scientists have discovered that a small chemokine protein released by activated platelets, platelet factor 4 (PF 4), reduced neuroinflammation, and improved cognition in aged mice. The study was published on Aug. 16 in the online edition of Nature.

Live bacterial biosensor CATCHes tumor DNA in situ

Aug. 11, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
In a study reported in the online edition of Science on Aug. 10, 2023, a group of synthetic biologists from the University of California (UC) San Diego and clinicians from Australia have engineered synthetic bacteria to detect specific DNA sequences in the genomes of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells and organoids. This living cell sensor capable of detecting cancer in the colons of mice has the potential to steer the way to new biosensors capable of identifying various infections, cancers and other diseases.

Isoform-specific targeting of DNA damage molecule gives broad therapeutic window

Aug. 7, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
A newly described small molecule inhibitor called AOH-1996 targets a cancer-associated isoform of PCNA (caPCNA), leading to a very broad therapeutic window. Researchers at City of Hope, a cancer research and treatment organization in California, reported on AOH-1996 in the Aug. 1, 2023, online edition of Cell Chemical Biology. Genes involved in replication and repair pathways are essential for the growth and survival of cancer cells. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a key player in DNA replication via a homotrimer formation that acts as a molecular sliding clamp around the DNA double helix.

HLA variation linked to asymptomatic COVID infection

July 19, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
Since its emergence in late 2019, SARS-CoV-2 has killed nearly 7 million people. But at the same time, many infections, in particular in children and young adults, are asymptomatic with rapid viral clearance from the body. It remains unclear why many individuals are able to successfully clear infection without major complications while others develop severe disease, even without known risk factors for severe COVID-19 outcomes.

Now, a new study involving nearly 30,000 individuals has found that variation in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci may underlie processes mediating asymptomatic infection. The findings were reported in the July 19, 2023, online edition of Nature.

Hyperactive neuronal microenvironment drives glioma invasion

June 30, 2023
By Subhasree Nag
Glioblastoma is a particularly aggressive form of brain cancer characterized by rapid infiltration into surrounding brain tissue, especially in areas of increased neuronal activity. Neurons and nerve fibers have recently been identified as vital components of the tumor microenvironment that favor the initiation and progression of a variety of solid tumors, including gliomas. Researchers have gained new insights into the molecular mechanisms driving glioblastoma infiltration and identified subtypes of neurons that serve as the substrate for driving tumor progression.
