IRB Barcelona in the media

The silencing of some specific germline genes could reduce brain tumours

9 March 2011

The last issue of the journal Química e Industria, produced by the Asociación Nacional de Químicas de España y del Consejo General de Químicos, reports on work recently published in Science by IRB Barcelona researcher Cayetano González. This study demonstrates that some brain tumours mimic gene expression patterns of germline cells. This finding paves the way for the development of new treatments against this kind of cancer.
