A Novel Potential Target for CAR-T Cell Therapy in Human Solid Tumors Discovered
At present, chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy (CAR-T) has made significant achievements in the treatment of specific hematological cancers, allowing patients with relapsed/refractory disease to survive longer and become healthier, but in clinical studies, cell therapy has actually not been successful in the treatment of patients with solid tumors, in part due to the lack of tumor targets ...

Near-atomic-level Details of Cancer Proteins with the Help of Molecular Cages Revealed
Sandwiching the wobble protein between two other layers allowed scientists to get the most detailed picture of a protein that is key to the spread of acute myeloid leukemia. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) afflicts more than 20,000 Americans each year, killing more than 11,000 of them, according to the American Cancer Institute. And many people who receive intensive chemotherapy or stem cell ...

LncRNA Sequencing Helps to Find Deep Links to Disease
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNAs that do not code for proteins and are typically greater than 200 nucleotides in length. Studies have shown that lncRNAs are quite complex in function and play an important role in various biological processes such as development, differentiation, proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis, stem cell pluripotency, and DNA damage. Therefore, those ...

What Are Heparins?
Heparin, also known as standard heparin or unfractionated heparin, is a linear polysaccharide consisting of 1-4 linked disaccharide repeat units of uronic acid and glucosamine residues. Heparin was discovered nearly 100 years ago and has been used clinically as a blood anticoagulant since 1935. This is due to its ability to bind to the antithrombin(serine protease inhibitor), causing the ...

Development of a Bioartificial Vascular Pancreas
Abstract Transplantation of pancreatic islets has been shown to be effective, in some patients, for the long-term treatment of type 1 diabetes. However, transplantation of islets into either the portal vein or the subcutaneous space can be limited by insufficient oxygen transfer, leading to islet loss. Furthermore, oxygen diffusion limitations can be magnified when islet numbers are increased ...
