    A fluorescent probe for visualizing the signaling dynamics in metastatic cancer cells has been developed. A research team at the University of Turku (Finland), led by Johanna Ivaska and James Conway, has developed a novel fluorescent probe for visualizing signaling dynamics in invading breast cancer cells. This tool uncovered new therapeutic possibilities for limiting breast cancer spread and increased understanding of cancer cell invasion, which could extend to other solid tumors.

    Deleting a gene cluster in wheat leads to a new seed variety that could be less harmful to individuals with celiac disease. Researchers from the University of California, Davis (CA, USA), have targeted genes in wheat that underlie gluten protein production without affecting breadmaking quality. This work represents a promising step forward in celiac disease research; however, it does not mean that they have developed a celiac-safe form of wheat.

    The impact of circadian disruption on muscle health and aging has been uncovered. A research team at King’s College London (UK) has uncovered the intrinsic and extrinsic effects that circadian disruption can have on muscle health and aging. This disruption, seen with shift work, can affect protein turnover and contribute to muscle wasting. A better understanding of these impacts enables strategies for improving health in shift workers to be developed.
