Predicting cancer behavior through splicing fingerprints

Cancer is caused by faulty genes, but what also shapes a cancer cell's behaviour is how a gene's instructions are trimmed and rearranged before they are turned into the proteins that keep a cell alive.

The 0.05 EU/mg breakthrough: How Sino Biological ProPure™ is redefining the Ultra-Low Endotoxin standard

When we discuss bacterial infections, we often think of exotoxins—those soluble proteins actively secreted by bacteria—while overlooking endotoxins, which are more insidious but equally dangerous.

Decoding the neighborhood dynamics of childhood brain cancer

New research published in Nature finds that tumor cells within supratentorial ependymomas (SE) – an aggressive childhood brain cancer – cluster into distinct tumor cell populations. Much like a neighborhood in your hometown, each cell subtype within these "communities" has a specific (and previously unappreciated) role to play.
