Once certain cellular machinery detects that a cell is changing into cancer, it triggers the kill code to destroy the mutating cell.
The code is found in large protein-coding ribonucleic acids and in small microRNAs, which are thought to have evolved more than 800 million years ago, partly to protect against cancer.

Epidemiological data isn’t hard to come by — about 12.8 billion medical and health studies were published between 1980 and 2012, according to the Web of Science scientific citation database. The real trouble is surfacing research related to specific topics and separating bogus studies from reproducible ones, which is part of the reason 35 percent of physicians don’t change their clinical practices based on medical literature.

The Accu-Cut® SRM™ 300 LT is the first and only American made manual microtome with a 4-color LED backlit chuck, which increases the contrast between specimens and paraffin, without warming the block.
- Quickly find translucent biopsies in the block using 1 or a combination of 4 LED colors
- Save time by quickly and precisely aligning recuts for IHC
- Rely on the Brake Light Indicator to safely handle blocks and blades

Biophysicists at Ruhr-Universität Bochum have demonstrated that Raman microscopy can be used to detect the resistance of tumor cells to cancer drugs. Unlike conventional approaches, this method does not require any antibodies or markers. It detects the response of cells to administered drugs and therefore could determine the effect of drugs in preclinical studies.

Blocking a molecule that is overly abundant in the nervous system of multiple sclerosis patients, and has been linked to nerve cell damage in animals, worked to significantly ease inflammation, demyelination and neurodegeneration in mouse models of secondary progressive MS, a study reports.
Treatment to inhibit this molecule also helped the SPMS mice recover damaged neural networks and motor ability.

Chemists at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a shrink ray that can change the size and shape of a block of gel-like material while human or bacterial cells grow on it. This new tool holds promise for biomedical researchers, including those seeking to shed light on how to grow replacement tissues and organs for implants.
"To understand, and in the future engineer, the way that cells respond to the physical properties of their environment, you want to have materials that are dynamically re-shapeable," said Jason B. Shear, professor of chemistry and co-inventor of the new tool.

Could microbes in our guts be sending out the wrong message? Queen's University Belfast researchers have, for the first time, found a specific microbe in the gut that pumps out protein molecules that mimic a human protein, causing the human defence system to turn on its own cells by mistake. The culprit in this case is called Bacteroides fragilis, a bacterium that normally lives in the human gut. The Queen's team has shown that this bacterium produces a human-like protein that could trigger autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. This human protein is called "ubiquitin" and is needed for all the normal cell processes in our bodies.

The 2014-2016 Ebola epidemic focused the world’s attention on the dangers of emerging diseases. Many diseases have emerged in recent decades, and researchers have primarily focused their attention on determining when, where and why new diseases will emerge. However, emerging diseases are not just a recent phenomenon in human populations. Research on past diseases, using bioarchaeological and paleomicrobiological approaches, can deepen the temporal scope of our understanding of the causes and consequences of emerging diseases.

Researchers from the Molecular Biology Institute of Barcelona and the Institute of Biotechnology and Biomedicine have discovered the mechanism by which the bacterium Mycoplasma genitalium adheres to human cells. This adhesion is essential for the onset of bacterial infection and subsequent disease development.

The availability of life-prolonging treatments such as hormonal therapies and other targeted chemotherapy has led to a sharp decline in breast cancer deaths in the United States.
But despite these advances, there's a troubling discrepancy in America. Breast cancer death rates continue to remain abnormally high in the Appalachian region of the United States, and it's partially due to a different epidemic in the U.S: opioid use.

A kill code is embedded in every cell in the body whose function may be to cause the self-destruction of cells that become cancerous, reports a new Northwestern Medicine study. As soon as the cell's inner bodyguards sense it is mutating into cancer, they punch in the kill code to extinguish the mutating cell.

Response to immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors among patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma did not diminish when given as first-line therapy compared with fourth-line therapy, according to a retrospective study published in Cancer.
Additionally, researchers led by Steven M. Yip, MD, MSc, of Tom Baker Cancer Center, Calgary, Canada, showed that the International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium risk category criteria appropriately stratified patients into risk categories.

Countries around the world continue to attempt creating a single national electronic health record system. And though billions have been spent, success remains elusive. Australia also has joined the club of nations struggling to launch a shareable digital health record system. But though the country does have a national healthcare system, a significant number of Aussies have declined to participate in a national EHR system as well.
