by University of California – San Diego With advances in genome sequencing, cancer treatments have increasingly sought to leverage the idea of “synthetic lethality,” exploiting cancer-specific genetic defects to identify targets that are uniquely essential to the survival of cancer cells. Synthetic lethality results when non-lethal mutations in different genes become deadly when combined in...
Botox is a muscle-relaxing toxin used cosmetically and for other purposes Researchers mined a US database of side-effects experienced from medications Patients given Botox were compared with those using alternative treatments The team found that the former were 40–88% less likely to report depression Further tests will be needed to confirm if and how Botox...
