Pioneering discovery leads to potential preventive treatment for sudden cardiac death

Posted: 05 Feb 2016 02:30 PM PST

Roughly 15 years ago, a team of researchers discovered the precise malfunction of a specific protein in the heart that leads to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a common culprit in cases of sudden death in young athletes. A team of scientists have now used some of these findings to develop a possible treatment to prevent this inherited disease that can cause the heart to thicken and stop pumping blood effectively, leading to heart failure.

Chromosomes reconfigure as cell division ends

Posted: 05 Feb 2016 11:45 AM PST

Cells reach a state called senescence when they stop dividing in response to DNA damage. This change can matter greatly to health, but scientists do not yet have a clear picture of how this change impacts the genome. A new study shows that a cell's chromosomes become physically reconfigured at senescence, leading to significant differences in what genes are expressed.

Single-lesion biopsy may be insufficient to choose therapy targeting resistance mutations

Posted: 05 Feb 2016 10:50 AM PST

When metastatic tumors driven by drug-targetable genetic mutations become resistant to a targeted therapy drug, the usual practice is to test a single metastatic lesion for new mutations that can guide the selection of next-line therapies. But this strategy may miss additional targetable mutations that arise in different metastases, a new study finds.
