Mice headed for space to test bone-building drug developed at UCLA

Ovarian cancer tumors with higher percentages of cIAP-expressing cells, shown in red at left, were more sensitive to a potential combination therapy than tumor cells without cIAP-expressing cells.

Combination therapy could provide new treatment option for ovarian cancer

UCLA study identifies a potential test that may help select patients for whom combination therapy could be most effective

Left: axons (green, pink, blue) form organized patterns in the normal developing mouse spinal cord. Right: removing netrin1 results in highly disorganized axon growth.

Study overturns seminal research about the developing nervous system
