CRISPR breakthrough reverses chemotherapy resistance in lung cancer. In a major step forward for cancer care, researchers have shown that disabling the NRF2 gene with CRISPR technology can reverse chemotherapy resistance in lung cancer. The approach restores drug sensitivity and slows tumor growth.

Sea urchin nervous systems are far more complex than we knew. New research shows these creatures possess 'all-body brains' and, at least in their genetic layout, they are remarkably similar to our own.

Researchers found high levels of SGK1 in blood samples from people with depression, people who ended their own lives, and highest levels of all in people with childhood trauma. Injecting SGK1 inhibitors into blood of mice have successfully inhibited depressive-like behaviour during prolonged stress.
