A Cell-Surface Membrane Protein Signature for Glioblastoma

3 bullets:

Using integrated protein and gene expression data, ISB researchers developed a 33-gene signature for glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer.
Glioblastoma gene signatures are associated with TGF-b signaling and cancer invasion.
Researchers think that some of the glioblastoma gene signatures have the potential to be used as blood biomarkers for this aggressive cancer.

Beyond the Scale: How Multiomics and Biological BMI Can Help Achieve Optimal Health
Posted on May 2, 2023
ISB researchers have constructed a biological BMI that provides a more accurate representation of metabolic health and is more varied, informative and actionable than the long-used classical BMI. ISB Senior Research Scientist Dr. Noa Rappaport discussed biological BMI in a Research Roundtable presentation.
Building a Better BMI
Posted on March 20, 2023
ISB researchers have constructed biological body mass index (BMI) measures that offer a more accurate representation of metabolic health and are more varied, informative and actionable than the traditional, long-used BMI equation. The work was published in the journal Nature Medicine.
COCOA Trial Results Show Diet, Exercise Help Some with Dementia
Posted on October 28, 2022
The recently completed, ISB-led Coaching for Cognition in Alzheimer’s (COCOA) trial shows that diet and exercise can help people suffering from dementia. Senior Research Scientist Dr. Jared Roach discussed the findings in a Research Roundtable presentation.
