Viagra – The Little Blue Pill Could Reshape Bone Marrow Transplants

A study published today in the journal Stem Cell Reports suggests that a combination of two clinically approved drugs – Viagra and Plerixafor – efficiently and rapidly mobilizes blood stem cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream in a mouse model. This combination therapy may offer a new approach for bone marrow transplants in humans.

Rosalind Franklin Award Recognizes Young Women at the Forefront of Genetics Research

The Rosalind Franklin Young Investigator Award honors the phenomenal contributions of Dr. Rosalind Franklin to the field of genetics by providing two young, female geneticists a cash prize of $75,000 to fund their research.

Method “Matches” Medicines to Their Unique Protein Receptors

A receptor (drug target) can shift from a single subunit to a multi-structure in the presence of a ligand (drug compound) – a process known as "oligomerization". Now, using photon excitation microscopy, researchers report that they can uncover the various protein receptor oligomers formed in the absence or presence of different drug candidates that bind to them.
