P-stalk ribosomes identified as key regulators of immune evasion in cancer

A novel study shows that specialized ribosomes, driven by cytokine signals, lend a hand cancers evade the immune system, offering a breakthrough route to enhancing cancer immunotherapy. Test: P-stalk ribosomes act as master regulators of cytokine-mediated processes.

Scientists are developing strategies to identify regulators of intestinal hormone secretion

A multi-institutional group of scientists led by the Hubrecht Institute and the Roche Institute of Human Biology has developed strategies to identify regulators of intestinal hormone secretion. In response to incoming food, these hormones are secreted by uncommon hormone-producing cells in the intestines and play a key role in controlling digestion and appetite. The team […]
