Scientists from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the Medical Faculty Mannheim, Heidelberg University, have now identified a new growth factor produced by blood vessels that enables tumor cells to metastatically colonize organs. In fact, scientists were able to slow the metastatic growth of breast and lung tumors in this way.

Researchers at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and the Whitehead Institute have developed a novel CRISPR-based tool called “CRISPRoff” that can switch off genes in human cells without editing the genetic sequence itself. These modifications regulate gene expression without altering the sequence or structure of DNA.

Much of the fundamental groundwork for genetics and genomic research was laid in the 20 th century, with significant contributions from women scientists, some of whom worked during times when acceptance of female researchers was not widespread. She then set off to Cambridge with a fellowship she received to do research in physical chemistry.

UCSF scientists found that having an additional copy of the sex chromosome gives women two “doses” of a gene found only on that chromosome. Women live longer than men with Alzheimer’s because the extra copy of the gene on the additional X chromosome provides protection against some of the devastating effects of the disease.
