Scientists develop a way to track donor bacteria after fecal microbiota transplants Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and their collaborators have developed a new technology to track beneficial bacteria after fecal microbiota transplants (FMT). The approach provides a detailed view of how donor microbes take hold and persist in the patients' gut—not only which bacteria successfully colonized but how they change over time.

Breast cancer protein discovery could restore hormone therapy response Know someone who's been diagnosed with breast cancer? There's a good chance that person has received hormone therapy. Estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancers account for about 75% of cases. Hormone therapy is one of the most common and effective treatments. However, it's far from a cure.

Researchers find a new targeted approach to shut down prostate cancer growth Prostate cancer relies on genetic "switches," called enhancers, that can turn on tumor-promoting genes. Researchers at the University of Michigan Health Rogel Cancer Center have discovered histone H2B N-terminal acetylation (H2BNTac), an essential chemical mark of these enhancers. They further implicate two proteins, p300 and CBP, that add these marks, and along with the androgen receptor, turn on enhancers and promote prostate cancer growth.
