Finding a needle in a haystack: functional screening for novel targets in cancer immunology and immunotherapies.

Oncogene

January 2025

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Key Laboratory of Birth Defects and Related Diseases of Women and Children of MOE, West China Second Hospital, State Key Laboratory of Biotherapy, and Department of Neurosurgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University and Collaborative Innovation Center, Chengdu, P. R. China.

Genome-wide functional genetic screening has been widely used in the biomedicine field, which makes it possible to find a needle in a haystack at the genetic level. In cancer research, gene mutations are closely related to tumor development, metastasis, and recurrence, and the use of state-of-the-art powerful screening technologies, such as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR), to search for the most critical genes or coding products provides us with a new possibility to further refine the cancer mapping and provide new possibilities for the treatment of cancer patients. The use of CRISPR screening for the most critical genes or coding products has further refined the cancer atlas and provided new possibilities for the treatment of cancer patients.

Parenthood, gender, and turning points to crime for young people in Latin America.

Adv Life Course Res

January 2025

Department of Political Science and Public Law, Autonomous University of Barcelona, Cerdanyola del Vallès, Bellaterra 08193, Spain.

In very different societal contexts, parenthood has been identified as a critical turning point in life course trajectories. In this qualitative study, we explore parenthood as a turning point for 40 young women and 40 young men in prisons across Latin America. We study the impact of parenthood on criminal trajectories, identify gender differences, and analyze the different mechanisms at work.
