Scientists Identify New Protein Targets for Cancer Treatment
Scientists have identified two proteins involved in regulating chromatin remodelling which could be promising therapeutic targets in tackling skin cancer and neurodevelopmental disorders.

News
Researchers Uncover Mechanism of Aging Spread Through the Bloodstream
Researchers discovered that a redox-sensitive form of the protein HMGB1 circulates in the blood and spreads cellular senescence to distant tissues. This process contributes to age-related decline and could be targeted therapeutically.
