HONG KONG – Two research teams have independently identified a specialized cytotoxic killer T-cell population and shown that boosting the number and killing ability of those cells may lead to an effective treatment for currently incurable lifelong viral infections, notably HIV.

HONG KONG – A modified version of the revolutionary gene-editing system known as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats – cellular apoptosis susceptibility protein (CRISPR/Cas), allows researchers to perform DNA substitutions without actually cleaving the DNA, according to a new Japanese study led by researchers at the University of Kobe.
HONG KONG – A new study led by scientists at the Australian National University (ANU) has provided valuable insights into how the function of the human genome depends on RNA-binding proteins, an important discovery that could ultimately lead to the development of new treatments for heart disease.

HONG KONG – The common anti-parasitic agent, ivermectin, may be a viable new option to treat breast cancer, reported Chinese researchers, who have demonstrated that it inhibited the proliferation of breast cancer cells and elucidated its mechanism of action in a new study.

HONG KONG – A collaborative study by U.S. and Chinese researchers has identified an immune system component responsible for the homeostatic control of innate immune responses to nosocomial invasive candidiasis, which represents a potential target that may lead to the development of treatments for the fungal infection.
