Harnessing the power of CRISPR gene-editing technology in a new way, University of Florida researchers have created a one-tube testing method targeting DNA from body fluids that has the potential to dramatically increase access to the diagnosis of viral diseases such as cervical cancer.
Scientists have discovered tumors can tap a nontraditional pathway to acquire lipoproteins—molecules that transport fat in blood—which enriches cancer cells with an antioxidant shield to survive stress, according to new research from Children’s Medical Center Research Institute at UT Southwestern published in Nature.
