Feedback is appriciated! Somatic Recombination: Part 2, Transmembrane Receptors Contrary to the static picture of cells, save neurons, from the biology texts of my youth, cells are dynamic and interactive. Further, this interactivity is critical not only to the health of the cell but the organism as well. Errors in intracellular signaling have been shown to play a role in cancer as well as many other conditions. https://lnkd.in/eU7y-Zgw

Study Reveals Key Genes Behind Bat Species' Remarkable Cancer Resistance In a groundbreaking study published in Nature Communications, scientists have shed light on the remarkable cancer resistance observed in certain bat species. By investigating seven different bat species, researchers discovered intriguing insights into the genetic mechanisms that confer this unique ability.

Misspelled cell lines take on new lives — and why that’s bad for the scientific literature (full article here: https://lnkd.in/eCsiDhv3) Human cell lines are crucial tools for research, but contamination poses a serious problem, especially in cancer studies. Recently an Australian group investigated misspelled cell line identifiers and discovered 23 unrecognized ones. Among them, seven seemed to evolve into independent cell lines. Differentiating between misspellings and independent lines, they found over half of 420 papers referenced at least one unrecognized identifier as an independent line. Lack of documentation and genetic profiles raises concerns about reproducibility and reliability. Descriptions of NV cell lines call for a zero-tolerance approach to misspelled cell line identifiers and pairing the names of all published cell lines with their corresponding Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs). #ResearchIntegrity #CellLineVerification #ScientificRigor #ResearchEthics #AcademicCommunity #ScienceAdvancement Read the whole article here: https://lnkd.in/eCsiDhv3

Self serving executives and "rogue" teams are a corporate cancer that persist through something analogous to the Warburg effect. In this video, I discuss what evolutionary biology teaches us about putting this malignancy into remission.

In this latest ESMO video, Alwin Krämer explains the biological features of carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP), the importance and recommended techniques for molecular analysis, where we stand today in terms of targeting molecular pathways in patients with CUP, and the outlook for #PrecisionMedicine in CUP. https://ow.ly/ZZFB50QkBsT #CarcinomaOfUnknownPrimary #PrecisionOncology #CancerResearch

Researchers from the Shmunis School of Biomedicine and Cancer Research at Tel Aviv University have deciphered a novel complex decision-making process that helps viruses choose to turn nasty or stay friendly to their bacterial host. In a new paper, they describe how viruses co-opt a bacterial immune system, intended to combat viruses like themselves, in this decision-making process.
