A study by the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) has discovered that the shortage of the p53 protein in animal models triggers the formation of colorectal tumours

The findings pave the way to develop colon cancer prevention strategies

The study has been published in Nature Communications

MicroRNA-27a has been shown to stimulate both the wingless-type integration site family, or Wnt signaling, and the bone morphogenetic protein pathways to actively promote bone regeneration, according to a recent study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Their important findings shed light on the intrinsic cellular pathways and mechanisms that are critical for the development of new bone-like tissue and could inform the design and development of future tissue regeneration therapies.

The recent global monkeypox (mpox) outbreak, with a new and aggressive variant, has underscored the dire need for safe, broadly effective, and accessible vaccines. The LC16m8 vaccine, an attenuated vaccinia virus strain originally developed for smallpox, is a promising option for countering the mpox virus. Exploring this potential further, researchers employed a cross-species immunological analysis to provide new insights into LC16m8’s immunogenicity and safety against mpox.
