An inflammatory feedback loop helps cancer hijack immune responses to spread tumors. Peer-Reviewed Publication Nagoya University image: When cancer cells die, macrophages consume them and produce inflammatory cytokines. This activates JAK and STAT proteins in living cancer cells, enabling them to produce their own Upd3 and creating a growth-promoting feedback loop in fruit flies. Credit: […]
Driven by the fundamental human desire to understand the world around us, the biological sciences began as a quest to uncover how life works. Image Credit: Volha_R/Shutterstock.com Fueled by experimentation and imagination, we set out to grasp nature’s underlying design and purpose. A significant turning point came with decoding the genetic code, which revealed the
