Genomes from 240 mammal species explain human disease risks
2023-05-05
In a large international project jointly led by Uppsala University and the Broad Institute, more than 30 research teams have together surveyed and analysed the genomes of 240 mammal species. The results, now published in 11 articles in the journal Science, show mutations that can cause disease. Karin Forsberg Nilsson and Ananya Roy at IGP have participated in one of the papers, where they have identified mutations associated with the cancer type medulloblastoma.

IRAK3 protein affects response to cancer immunotherapy
2023-05-05
A recent study by IGP researchers shows that the protein IRAK3 reduces the effect of immunotherapy against cancer. One way of improving the therapy response could be to reduce the amount the IRAK3 with drugs that target the protein.
