ONCOLOGY PES1 controls a balancing act in breast cancer Estrogen signaling is known to be an important driving force in many breast cancers. Estrogen can signal through two different estrogen receptors (ERs), ERα and ERβ, but the effects that engagement of each of these receptors has on cell growth and survival differs... Read More

'Smarter' Anaysis Of Individual Cells With New Genomic Sequencing Method

Jul 24, 2012

Only by viewing a Seurat painting at close range can you appreciate the hidden complexities of pointillism - small, distinct dots of pure color applied in patterns to form an image from a distance. Similarly, biologists and geneticists have long sought to analyze profiles of genes at the single cell level but technology limitations have only allowed a view from afar until now... Read More

Depression In Cancer Patients Improved By Cognitive Behavioral Therapy And Pharmacologic Interventions

Jul 24, 2012

Despite guidelines recommending screening for depression in cancer patients, it's been unclear whether interventions designed to treat this depression are effective. A study* by the University of Colorado Cancer Center and other institutions, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, changes that... Read More

Drug Discovery Success Rate Improved By 3D Tumor Models Which Bridge Gap Between Cell Assays And Animal Models

Jul 24, 2012

Imagine millions of cancer cells organized in thousands of small divots. Hit these cells with drugs and when some cells die, you have a candidate for a cancer drug. But a review published in the journal Expert Opinion on Drug Discovery argues that these 2D models in fact offer very little information about a potential drug's effects in the body and may often give researchers misleading results... Read More
