Plasma phospholipids identify antecedent memory impairment in older adults

TL;DR: This work discovered and validated a set of ten lipids from peripheral blood that predicted phenoconversion to either amnestic mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease within a 2–3 year timeframe with over 90% accuracy and may be sensitive to early neurodegeneration of preclinical Alzheimer’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting cellular metabolism to improve cancer therapeutics

TL;DR: The relationship between dysregulated cellular metabolism and cancer drug resistance is discussed and how targeting of metabolic enzymes can enhance the efficacy of common therapeutic agents or overcome resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upregulation of CXCR4 is essential for HER2-mediated tumor metastasis

TL;DR: It is shown that HER2 enhances the expression of CXCR4, which is required for HER2-mediated invasion in vitro and lung metastasis in vivo, and this work establishes a functional link between HER2 and CX CR4 signaling pathways.
