"CCL2 is a small cell-signaling protein that recruits immune cells to sites of inflammation. CCR2 is CCL2’s receptor. Together, CCL2 and CCR2 create an inflammatory and immune-suppressive microenvironment, which promotes tumor growth and progression and induces resistance to anticancer drugs. A recent review highlights research on the therapeutic potential of targeting this so-called “CCL2-CCR axis”. Circulating levels of CCL2 are particularly elevated in individuals with obesity. Studies on men with prostate cancer suggest that inhibiting CCL2 signaling can significantly inhibit tumor growth and invasion. More work is needed to differentiate natural CCL2 levels in patients from tumor-derived CCL2 involved in the formation and spread of tumors, which could lead to new ways of attacking cancer and cancer resistance..."

"Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer, and it is also one of the most deadly. People who take progesterone for hormone replacement therapy or contraceptive purposes may be particularly at risk. A new study showed that disruption of the intricate balance between two cell signaling cascades may be at least partly to blame. Progesterone is thought to trigger cellular responses by binding to either classic nuclear receptors or non- classic membrane receptors. Researchers showed that the genes CCM1-3 (which form the CCM signaling complex) mediate the crosstalk between the signaling pathways associated with these two receptor types. The signaling network involving progesterone, the CCM complex, and membrane and nuclear receptors relies on an intricate feedback system to maintain homeostasis, indicating that excess progesterone can throw it out of balance..."

"Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common malignant tumors in a type of gut tissue called mesenchyme. They’re caused by mutations that activate receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) enzymes, and treatment with RTK inhibitors is initially successful, but over half of patients develop resistance, indicating a need for better treatments. Researchers recently investigated whether the drug THZ1, an inhibitor of the protein CDK7 that’s effective in other cancers, could help. They first confirmed that CDK7, which helps regulate the cell life cycle and gene transcription, was overexpressed in high-risk human GISTs. They also found that CDK7 overexpression predicted a poor outcome. However, low-dose THZ1 exerted pronounced anticancer effects in GIST cells both in vitro and in a mouse model. THZ1 also synergized with the RTK inhibitor imatinib to increase its efficacy..."

"Microbiomes are more than just prokaryotes and viruses; they also contain important eukaryotes, including fungi and protists. However, eukaryotes are difficult to study using ‘shotgun’ metagenomics, as their signal is often overwhelmed by the prokaryotes. Some methods use eukaryote-specific marker genes, but they can’t detect eukaryotes that aren’t in the reference marker gene set, and such methods are not compatible with web-based tools for downstream analysis. But CORRAL (Clustering Of Related Reference ALignments) is designed to close those gaps. CORRAL identifies eukaryotes in metagenomic data based on alignments to eukaryote-specific marker genes and Markov clustering. It can detect microbial eukaryotes that are not included in the marker gene reference set. The process is even automated and can be carried out at scale. A recent paper demonstrates CORRAL’s sensitivity and accuracy with simulated datasets, mock community standards, and human microbiome datasets..."

"Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common lung cancer, is also the most lethal cancer worldwide. The protein CPNE1 has been found to promote NSCLC, but it’s not clear how. To find out, researchers recently manipulated CPNE1 expression in NSCLC cells in vitro. CPNE1 overexpression activated cancer progression processes, such as proliferation, migration, invasion, and MET signaling, while CPNE1 silencing produced the opposite effects. Silencing RACK1, another cancer-driving protein, suppressed the tumor formation and MET signaling activation caused by CPNE1 overexpression, confirming that RACK1 mediates CPNE1-induced cancer progression and suggesting that MET is involved. Since CPNE1 is also believed to activate EGFR signaling, the researchers tested the effects of both MET and EGFR inhibition on NSCLC tumors in mice..."

There is growing body of evidence to support that students who directly experience authentic scientific research are more likely to continue onto advanced degrees and careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). In an effort to introduce more students to the benefits of scientific research we have drawn on an ongoing research project aimed at understanding how Corals Respond to the Environment (CRE) to develop an interdisciplinary laboratory course based on Authentic Research Experiences (ARE). A small cohort of undergraduate students enrolled in a semester-long course, entitled CREARE, perform biochemical experiments in the laboratory, analyze environmental data by R statistical software and prepared a report modeled after a research manuscript to present their work. The impact of CREARE on student learning gains and attitudes towards science is being measured, as is the impact of CREARE on participants' career choices and retention in STEM. This multidisciplinary research program addresses the impact of climate change on the health of a critically endangered coral species, ultimately leading to a better stewardship of this invaluable resource. Furthermore, CREARE offers a unique experience for students, one that may serve as a model for the development of more research-based courses, leading to improved retention in our STEM departments.

In these lesson plans, students will act as CSI agents investigating the mysterious pathogen that caused the massive potato crop failure and resultant Great Famine of 1845 in Ireland. Through a variety of seven focused activities, students will map its diffusion, experience the history of the Great Famine, isolate and test samples using PCR and gel electrophoresis, create Wanted Posters of plant pathogens and take action in communicating their concerns of chemical controls of these pathogens and the danger of repeating history.

O curso de Agentes Mirins Disseminadores da Cidadania Ambiental é um instrumento para o ensino das ciências ambientais, que versa o envolvimento dos participantes na construção coletiva do processo de ensino-aprendizagem, unindo a teoria-prática acerca dos conhecimentos apreendidos que são pautados nas questões ambientais. O seu desígnio principal é fomentar a sensibilização dos sujeitos para a participação no contexto da sociedade, questionando atitudes, valores, além de propor novas práticas acerca da problemática ambiental. Trata-se de instrumento educacional para o estimulo a reflexão crítica, bem como, fomentar nos sujeitos a atuação participante e protagonista das problemáticas que englobem ilimitadas realidades. Assim sendo, o público alvo abarca os estudantes e os membros da comunidade ribeirinha, compreendendo que os conteúdos trabalhados podem ser adaptados e desenvolvidos dentro de infinitas realidades de interesse local e global. Nesse sentido, vislumbramos que os sujeitos ao participarem da construção do vídeo documentário e assistirem ao seu produto final – o vídeo documentário, cuja dedicação em pensar e articular cada etapa, fomente reflexões acerca do que foi trabalhado durante todo processo de construção, sendo assim, capazes de disseminar de forma potente a mensagem de sensibilização das problemáticas socioambientais que precisão ser sanadas no lugar onde vivem. Versará também, provocar impacto visual e emocional nos participantes, pois, na atualidade é comum, os meios de comunicação e as escolas na divulgação e nas análises dos problemas tragam diversas realidades em escalas distantes das vivenciadas no espaço social dos sujeitos, porém assistir a sua realidade fará com que os envolvidos se sintam parte do problema, e posteriormente partir em busca por soluções para sanar as problemáticas encontradas, aproximando aquele que fala daquele que assiste.
Vídeo Documentário construído durante o curso de Agentes Mirins Disseminadores da Cidadania Ambiental por alunos e alunas da Escola Municipal Barquinho Amarelo, localizada no povoado São Braz, Nossa Senhora do Socorro, Sergipe.
