A surprising finding from USC reveals key details about how cancer cells metastasize and suggests new therapeutic approaches for halting their spread. The research, supported by the National Institutes of Health, centers on a cellular chaperone protein known as GRP78, which helps regulate the folding of other proteins inside cells. Previous studies from the same team, led by Amy S. Lee, PhD , professor of biochemistry and molecular medicine at the Keck School of Medicine of USC, have shown that when cells are under stress (due to COVID-19 or cancer ), GRP78 gets hijacked, allowing viral invaders to replicate, and cancers to grow and resist treatment.

At a time when politics and science are at odds with the truth, conspiracy theories are on the rise and misinformation is rampant, Rutgers researchers say facts do matter and explain why beliefs are more rational than they might seem. In a study published in Psychological Review , researchers analyzed previous studies and have developed a new scientific theory they say is behind the psychology of belief. Those who don't update their beliefs based on new information may look like they are being swayed by their desire to believe something else.

The graft charges filed by former Ilocos Sur Gov. Luis 'Chavit' Singson against two former mayors of Narvacan town received a boost after the Sandiganbayan allowed one of the co-accused to become state witness. In a resolution on Aug. 18, the antigraft court's Second Division granted the prosecution's motion to discharge Constante Cabitac, then the president of the Federation of Farmers of Narvacan Ilocos Sur. Cabitac can provide 'direct evidence' against those responsible for the alleged misappropriation of P81 million intended for the federation, on top of the testimonies already given by 11 other witnesses, the prosecutors said.
