Programmed Cell Death is Key to Determining the Best Cancer Treatment


Functional profiling is a laboratory technique that measures how cancer cells respond when they are exposed to drugs and drug combinations

Modern advances in our understanding of cancer biology have shown that cancers arise from cells that have learned certain tricks to enhance their survival so they can outlive their normal counterparts.&nbsp;

These transformed (cancerous) cells interact directly with their micro-environment. 
To treat a disease that is so complex, hundreds of drugs, drug combinations, and targeted agents are used on patients. 
By using this approach, it can be determined in the laboratory the best drugs for each patient&nbsp;before&nbsp;they receive them. 
For example, recently, I received a telephone call from Des Moines, Iowa from a 60-year-old gentleman who had presented with gastrointestinal cancer.

A Coating To Make Fruit Last Longer Could Be Fruitful


A Spray To Make Fruit Last Longer Could Be Fruitful


About 1.3 billion tons of food is wasted each year globally and much of the waste comes in the form of fresh produce. It&#39;s estimated that as much as half of harvested produce ends up in a landfill. James Rogers, founder of a company called Apeel Sciences, may have a solution...in the form of a solution. He is quoted in a Forbes article as saying, &ldquo;My thought was, if people are going hungry because of perishability&mdash;and perishability is caused by water evaporating, and steel is perishable without its oxide barrier&mdash;could we solve the food perishability problem by creating a thin barrier for produce?&rdquo;

Immediately going to work on the idea, Rogers formed Apeel Sciences and eventually developed a coating that can be sprayed onto produce which helps it stay fresh two to four times longer.
