Keeping Fit May Reduce Breast Cancer Risk
Jun 25, 2012
Women who keep fit with regular exercise, even mild physical activity, may reduce their risk of developing breast cancer, even after the menopause, but not if they also put on a lot of weight, according to a new study from the US... Read More
Examining The Biology Of Tumor-Derived Microvesicles
Jun 25, 2012
A new paper by Crislyn D'Souza-Schorey, professor of biological sciences at the University of Notre Dame, discusses the biology of tumor-derived microvesicles and their clinical application as circulating biomarkers. Microvesicles are membrane-bound sacs released by tumor cells and can be detected in the body fluids of cancer patients... Read More
Stopping And Starting Cancer Cell Cycle Weakens And Defeats Multiple Myeloma
Jun 25, 2012
Weill Cornell Medical College researchers have devised an innovative boxer-like strategy, based on the serial use of two anti-cancer drugs, to deliver a one-two punch to first weaken the defenses of multiple myeloma and then deliver the final knock-out punch to win the fight... Read More

Using Human Stem Cells To Create Blood-Brain Barrier Building Blocks
Jun 25, 2012
The blood-brain barrier - the filter that governs what can and cannot come into contact with the mammalian brain - is a marvel of nature. It effectively separates circulating blood from the fluid that bathes the brain, and it keeps out bacteria, viruses and other agents that could damage it... Read More
