Biotechnology

Blocking cancer in its path

Researchers have discovered that a key cellular defect that disturbs the production of proteins in human cells can lead to cancer susceptibility.

Turning molecules into super protein killers

Using a novel light activation technique, scientists have been able to turn molecules with only a modest ability to fight specific proteins into virtual protein destroyers.

Vitamin D and calcium interplay explored

A recent study underscores the importance of vitamin D and its ability to help the body utilise calcium and may explain why increasing calcium alone isn't always successful in dealing with this problem. MORE »

Brain tumour growth switch discovered

A recent study shows that a molecule called miR-451 coordinates the grow-or-go behaviour of tumour cells, and that the change is accompanied by slower cell proliferation and an increase in cell migration. MORE »
