Researchers uncover RNA hubs driving kidney cancer growth
Reported by AI
Scientists at Texas A&M University Health Science Center have discovered that RNA forms droplet-like hubs in translocation renal cell carcinoma, activating tumor genes. By developing a molecular switch to dissolve these hubs, they halted cancer growth in lab and mouse models. The findings, published in Nature Communications, offer a new approach for treating this aggressive pediatric cancer.
