Leon Terstappen on Circulating Tumor Cells: Biology and Technology
Tumor metastases cause ninety percent of cancer deaths, and occur when cells detach from a primary tumor and form new malignancies elsewhere. This process involves circulating tumor cells (CTC) which intravasate and extravasate (enter and exit the blood vessels) allowing migration to other parts of the body.
More InfoEvolution and Diversification of Snake Venom Toxins
Snake venom toxins are well-known for their profound physiological effects that enable their use as tools to aid basic research and clarify pathological processes; they also have enormous potential in drug design and development. Further, an area of growing interest is the molecular evolution and diversification of these toxins, a particularly rapid and dynamic process for which the underlying mechanisms […]
More InfoGluten Sensitive?
Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is defined as intestinal and non-intestinal symptoms resulting from the ingestion of gluten, and which is not due to celiac disease (CD) or wheat allergy. Gluten sensitivity appears to be increasing and is thus a topic of significant public and research interest; a recent paper published in the journal Nutrients describes progress in the […]

More InfoTumor-Directed Radiotherapy Upregulates the Immune Response
In the current issue of Diagnostics, Wu, Pfeifer and colleagues demonstrate how targeted radionuclide anti-tumor therapy upregulates specific cells of the immune system, advancing understanding of the host immune response to treatment and facilitating the optimization of dosage and protocols for improved patient outcomes.
More InfoArthropod Appreciation Day
Soil arthropods, invertebrate animals with exoskeletons, including ants, termites and millipedes, munch their way through plant litter that ends up as the nutrient rich soil upon which complex terrestrial life depends. Most of us, though, are likely only dimly aware of the essential roles arthropods play in maintaining ecosystems. We are more apt to regard […]
