New findings suggest that therapies that increase the expression of the scavenger receptor MARCO on LAIR-1–expressing tumor-associated #macrophages could boost an anti-tumor response by preventing inhibitory signaling. @CTI_UMCUtrecht https://t.co/eHslunSw6Z

A study reveals functionally different mutations in a #Gprotein associated with a rare neurodevelopmental disorder, showing the potential contribution of each variant—and any potential therapeutic intervention—must be examined individually. @karolinskainst https://t.co/MQTHVfpqen

The experience focuses on emotion rather than action. Progress comes from observing subtle shifts rather than completing traditional objectives.

A new study sheds light on how a cell-cycle kinase inhibitor may be used most effectively to treat #OvarianCancer and hints that the protein p16 could be a useful marker for identifying those patients most likely to benefit. @CUBoulder https://t.co/6W7dBOQPTm

How do #OvarianCancer cells resist CDK2 inhibitors? Scientists reveal mechanisms of compensatory CDK signaling and find that cancer cells enriched in p16 display less CDK4/6 activity and are more sensitive to treatment. @CUBoulder https://t.co/6W7dBOQPTm
