SABCS: Loss of RB in Triple Negative Breast Cancer Associated with Favorable Clinical Outcome
newswise.com — “Researchers at the Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson have shown that loss of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene (RB) in triple negative breast cancer patients is associated with better clinical outcomes. This is a new marker to identify the subset of these patients who may respond positively to chemotherapy.” View full resource at newswise.com

Is Genetic Hair Loss Linked to Other Diseases? | Hair Transplant Blog | Bernstein Medical - Center for Hair Restoration
bernsteinmedical.com — “Q: There was a retrospective study by Lotufo et al. linking male pattern baldness to heart disease. Do you think there are other links like this for androgenetic alopecia? A: Family studies revealed both the androgen receptor locus on the X chromosome, as well as a new locus on chromosome 3q26. Association studies performed in two independent groups revealed a locus on chromosome 20 (not near any known genes) as well as the androgen receptor on the X chromosome. Read on for the rest of the answe” View full resource at bernsteinmedical.com

Waking up is hard to do: Scientists identify a gene important for the daily rhythms of the sleep-wake cycle
sciencedaily.com — “Scientists have discovered a new mechanism in the core gears of the circadian clock. They found the loss of a certain gene, dubbed "twenty-four," messes up the rhythm of the common fruit fly's sleep-wake cycle, making it harder for the flies to awaken. The circadian clock drives, among other things, when an organism wakes up and when it sleeps. While the study was done using Drosophila melanogaster, the findings have implications for humans.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Cancer drugs offer new hope for Crohn's disease and sarcoidosis
sciencedaily.com — “A new study offers insight into a new treatment avenue for Crohn's Disease and sarcoidosis. While the loss of NOD2 increases the risk of developing Crohn's disease, increased activity of this gene is also thought to exacerbate symptoms. Scientists have identified two existing FDA-approved drugs that are able to inhibit the activity of NOD2's binding partner, the kinase RIP2, and therefore, also inhibit the activity of NOD2.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Inhibitory neurons key to understanding neuropsychiatric disorders
eurekalert.org — “In 1999, Baylor College of Medicine researcher Dr. Huda Zoghbi, and her colleagues identified mutations in one of these genes called MECP2 as the culprit in a devastating neurological disorder called Rett syndrome. In new research in mice published in the current issue of the journal Nature, Zoghbi and her colleagues demonstrate that the loss of the protein MeCP2 in a special group of inhibitory nerve cells in the brain reproduces nearly all Rett syndrome features.” View full resource at eurekalert.org
