Double Targeting Approach Increases Potential for Cancer Treatment with Oncolytic Viruses

Cancer researchers have used a double targeting approach to direct oncolytic viruses specifically to tumor cells where they reproduce until the cancer cells burst, releasing more viruses to infect and ultimately destroy the tumor.  More...

Cell Biologists Find That Certain Mitochondrial Diseases Stem from Coenzyme Q10 Depletion

A team of German cell biologists has linked the development of certain mitochondrial-linked diseases to depletion of the organelles' pool of coenzyme Q10 brought about by mutation in the MFN2 gene, which encodes the fusion protein mitofusin 2.  More...
