Researchers have identified 2 proteins that could serve as new biomarkers for #pancreatic #cancer. These protein markers can help distinguish cancer from non-cancer and track how patients are responding to treatment. This offers a new direction for the early detection & monitoring. bit.ly/4mbboX0

Breakthrough news in the fight against lung cancer! 🚨 A new study shows how molecules from a patient's own immune cells (natural killer cells) could reawaken the body's defenses to combat tough tumors for hard-to-treat lung cancers; harnessing the body's own natural killer cells to fight back.

But not all mutations block all anti-BCMA therapies from binding and we at @tgenresearch.bsky.social and @cityofhope.bsky.social are integrating the known binding of these agents into our whole genome sequencing reports to ensure patients get the therapy that will work best for them at that point

TGen scientists have found a new weakness in a rare ovarian cancer that might help us treat it better. This could mean new and improved treatments are on the way, even for cancers that were hard to treat before. More at www.tgen.org/news/study-r.... #OvarianCancer #Research

2/2This study is a big step towards:
💡 Understanding liver disease better, especially in people who might not seem at risk
🔍 Catching problems earlier and helps prevent serious health problems in the future - Such as Liver Cancer, Liver Failure, Cirrhosis, and other related diseases like diabetes.

Liver disease can affect anyone, not just those who are overweight 🤔 A Study found that even healthy-weight people can have fat in their liver, & it might be because of their genes. Learning about these genes can help doctors figure out who's at risk & improve care for everyone.

🧬 Today is National DNA Day 🧬
We wouldn't be where we are today without the hard work of Friedrich Miescher (1869) and Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick (1953). Thanks to their contributions, the foundation of genetics and genomic sciences is strong.

Excited to share our new work exploring strategies to overcome resistance to CAR T cell therapy in solid tumors. Using scRNA-seq, mouse models, and functional studies, our work points to SPP1 signaling in the TME as a critical component of this resistance. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
