UCSF scientists have illuminated a key step in a signaling pathway that helps orchestrate embryonic development. The finding, they say, could lead to insights into the development of stem cells, as ...
Cancer is a condition in which the cells in a specific part of the body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. The cancerous cells can invade and destroy surrounding healthy tissue, including organs.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – A form of cell communication called hedgehog signaling is vital for embryonic development in mammals. But aberrantly activated hedgehog signaling in multiple cancer types — ...
Importance of lifestyle modification in cervical cancer survivors. Background: The hedgehog (Hh) pathway is an attractive therapeutic target. Dysregulation of the Hh pathway is implicated in ...
L-BLP25 treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Safety data from a phase IIb trial compared with an integrated safety analysis (ISA). Background: We are now doing moncyte-derived ...
The mechanisms used by embryos to pattern tissues across their axes has fascinated developmental biologists since the founding of embryology. Here, using single-cell technology, we interrogate complex ...
During human brain development, neural stem cells must balance self-renewal and differentiation to build the cerebral cortex – the brain’s outer layer responsible for cognition and perception. If this ...
Levodopa, or L-dopa, is considered the most effective treatment for Parkinson's disease today. After a few years of treatment, however, almost all patients develop a debilitating side-effect called ...
