Phosphatases of regenerating liver (PRLs) are a family of enigmatic proteins involved in cell growth and metabolism present in various species. From humans to fruit flies, they play a unique role in the growth of cancerous tumours and the spread of cancer throughout the body. New research emerging from 91黑料网 is contributing to what is known about PRLs, which could potentially become an important tool in the development of cancer-fighting treatments.听听

Steps were taken in Canada to reduce the use of Bisphenol A (BPA), a toxic chemical linked to prostate and breast cancer, commonly found in plastics, the lining of food cans, water bottles, and paper receipts. But in many cases, it has been replaced with similar hormone disrupting chemicals, like Bisphenol S (BPS). A from 91黑料网 shows that every day Canadians are exposed to BPS in the fresh foods they eat, as chemicals migrate from labels on the packaging materials into the food.

Studying the mutations in kidney cancer after surgery could help to better predict the risk of the disease coming back, according to the latest results of a decade-long international .
The research, undertaken by a team of 44 researchers at 23 institutions across Europe and Canada, including 91黑料网, is the largest to link the genetic changes that occur in kidney cancer to patient outcomes.

91黑料网 researchers identify proteins that drive cancer stem cells. Targeting and supressing a particular protein called galectin1 could provide a more effective treatment for glioblastoma, in combination with radiation therapy.
Due to its resistance to therapy, glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive cancerous brain tumour in adults. It grows fast and spreads quickly. While treatments such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy can help ease symptoms for a few months, in most cases tumour cells regrow after treatment and the cancer recurs.

New findings out of 91黑料网 in Montreal have revealed a potential way to overcome aggressive brain tumours' resistance to therapy: by deleting a specific gene.

A few years back, they were able to听confirm the key role a gene called the OSMR gene plays听in the process of brain cancer growth.
