Protection Against Childhood Cancers May Be Provided By Folic Acid Fortification
Researchers from the University of Minnesota and Washington University in St. Louis have found folic acid fortification of grain products in the United States may have an impact on lowering some childhood cancers. The new research, published online in the journal Pediatrics, shows fortification does not appear to be causing ...
Discovery Suggests New Combination Therapy Strategy For Basal-Like Breast Cancers
Multiple research projects - including a 2006 study conducted at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - have used DNA microarray analysis to identify several breast cancer subtypes, including luminal A, luminal B, basal-like and HER2-enriched. Simple tests are being developed to help doctors identify these subtypes and ...
Cancer’s ‘Field Effect’ Enables Earlier Detection Of Pancreatic Cancer During Routine Endoscopy
By simply shining a tiny light within the small intestine, close to that organ's junction with the pancreas, physicians at Mayo Clinic's campus in Florida have been able to detect pancreatic cancer 100 percent of the time in a small study. The light, attached to a probe, measures changes in ...
Folic acid food enrichment potentially protective against childhood cancers
MINNEAPOLIS/ST. PAUL (MAY 21, 2012) Researchers from the University of Minnesota and Washington University in St. Louis have found folic acid fortification of grain products in the United States may have an impact on lowering some childhood cancers. The new research, published online today in ...
Deletion of ‘lunatic fringe’ promotes tumor formation of basal-like breast cancers
Multiple research projects - including a 2006 study conducted at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - have used DNA microarray analysis to identify several breast cancer subtypes, including luminal A, luminal B, basal-like and HER2-enriched.

Novel discovery by NUS scientists paves the way for more effective treatment of cancers
A team of scientists from the National University of Singapore's (NUS) Department of Biological Sciences and Mechanobiology Institute have discovered how a drug-led compound a compound that is undergoing preclinical trials as a potential drug can deprive cancer cells of energy and stop them from growing into a ...
Aggressive Characteristics In Prostate, Bladder And Skin Cancers, And The Protein RAL
We have known for years that when the proteins RalA and RalB are present, cells in dishes copy toward aggressive forms of cancer. However, until now, no study had explored the effects of RAL proteins in human cancers - an essential step on the path to developing drugs to target ...
Folic acid may reduce some childhood cancers
(Washington University in St. Louis) Folic acid fortification of foods may reduce the incidence of the most common type of kidney cancer and a type of brain tumors in children, finds a new study by Kimberly J. Johnson, Ph.D., assistant professor at the Brown School at Washington University in St. ...
Discovery suggests new combination therapy strategy for basal-like breast cancers
(University of North Carolina Health Care) A new study led by UNC Lineberger scientist Charles Perou, Ph.D., and Sean Egan, Ph.D., from the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario, demonstrates that deletion of a sugar transferase called LFNG, promotes cell proliferation and tumor formation of basal-like breast cancers.
