Image: Metastatic melanoma tumors. The micrograph on the left shows low or absent expression of RASA2, which is linked to reduced survival of about 35% of patients. The sample on the right exhibits high RASA2 expression and increased survival (Photo courtesy of the Weizmann Institute of Science).

Loss of Tumor Suppressor Gene Spurs Growth of Some Malignant Melanomas

Cancer researchers have identified a tumor suppressor gene that when damaged or lost acts to spur growth and spread of a subset of human malignant melanomas.  More...

Inset: crown-like structures within the fat tissue (left, dark brown) are associated with increased inflammation (Photo courtesy of the Weizmann Institute of Science).

A Subset of Immune T-Cells Protects Against Metabolic Syndrome in Mouse Model

A subset of immune T-cells lacking the lytic protein perforin was found to be responsible for inducing the onset of metabolic syndrome in mice fed a normal diet.  More...

Analysis of RNA Carried by Tumor-educated Platelets Yields Valuable Diagnostic Clues

Analysis of tumor RNA carried in the afflicted individual's blood platelets may be more useful than other "liquid biopsy" technologies for diagnosing cancer and determining its primary location and potential therapeutic approaches.   More...

Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Stimulates Early Cancer Metastasis

The stimulation of blood vessel formation by epidermal growth factor receptor early in tumor development was found to facilitate metastasis of the original tumor even before it was diagnosed.  More...
