Researchers have engineered a dual-targeting nanocarrier that safely sneaks potent chemotherapy past the blood-brain barrier. By homing in on a specific protein expressed by both the glioblastoma ...

Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...

Researchers have defined a new genetic disease caused by a mutation in the IVNS1ABP gene. The condition marks a rare ...

A mechanism underlying neutrophil reprogramming in brain cancers has been uncovered, illuminating potential therapeutic targets to stop their pro-cancer effect. Tumor-infiltrating neutrophils are ...

The lab of Filippo Veglia, Ph.D., at The Wistar Institute has discovered a previously unknown mechanism for how aggressive brain cancers reprogram immune system cells from fighting cancer to enabling ...
