IGF2BP2 binds to a number of RNA transcripts and has been suggested to function as a tumor promoter, although little is known regarding the mechanisms that regulate its roles in RNA metabolism. Here ...
Scientists in the laboratory of Rendong Yang, Ph.D., associate professor of Urology, have developed a new large language model that can interpret transcriptomic data in cancer cell lines more ...
Liquid biopsies are tests that detect signs of cancer through a simple blood draw. Unlike traditional biopsies, which require removing a piece of tissue, a liquid biopsy typically looks for mutations ...
A new approach using RNA instead of DNA has improved the accuracy of liquid biopsy tests for early-stage colorectal cancer, according to a study by researchers at the University of Chicago. The method ...
With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...
American biologists Victor Ambros from the University of Massachusetts and Gary Ruvkun from Harvard University have won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. They share the prize for their ...
