@eth-dbiol.bsky.socialCancer cells provide healthy neighbouring cells with additional cell powerhouses to put them to work. This has been demonstrated by researchers at ETH Zurich in a new study. In this way, #Cancer is exploiting a mechanism that frequently serves to repair damaged cells.
Show PostAt @ethz.ch, Jacob Corn and his team are at the forefront of genome editing, developing tools to treat rare genetic diseases and investigating what happens inside our cells when DNA is altered: ethz-foundation.ch/fokus/news-2... #genomeediting #CRISPR #medicalresearch #ETHZurich #startups
Show PostWhat if cancer treatment could be tailored to your tumour’s unique biology? A groundbreaking Swiss study is making that a reality. Read more:
Show PostWhat happens when our #DNA breaks? ETH Zurich scientists mapped over 150,000 gene interactions to reveal how cells fix their DNA - and how #Cancer cells might be stopped in their tracks. A breakthrough in #CancerResearch could be closer than we think. Read more:
Show PostAsgard archaea have actin - but what about microtubules? Where do they come from? 🧐 Our new paper www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... by @xujwet.bsky.social & @florianwollweber.bsky.social, in collaboration with the Schleper & Wieczorek labs, describes tiny Asgard microtubules! #TeamTomo #ArchaeaSky 1/6
