Share this article Share this article LOS ANGELES, May 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ In recognition of Military Appreciation Month, the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) announced today its new $2.5 million commitment to launch the Drew Foundation Precision Oncology Center of Excellence in collaboration with the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and the San Francisco VA Health Care System (SFVAHCS) to deliver best-in-class precision oncology treatments to Veterans with prostate cancer. PCF is committed to continuing to expand our partnership with the VA to advance cutting-edge research and care for Veterans with prostate cancer, said Jonathan W. Simons, MD, PCF president and CEO. Partnering with the University of California, San Francisco brings top expertise to our precision oncology efforts serving our nation s Veterans. UCSF researchers co-developed the latest FDA-approved PSMA-PET scan which zeroes in on prostate cancer that has spread through the body so it can be b

Store Fat or Burn It? Targeting a Single Protein Flips the Switch

Store Fat or Burn It? Targeting a Single Protein Flips the Switch As obesity becomes a growing issue worldwide – nearly tripling over the last-half century – scientists are trying to gain a better understanding of the condition at the molecular level. Now, new research led by UC San Francisco scientists suggests that a single protein could play an outsized role in weight gain. As reported in  Nature Metabolism on Feb. 18, 2021, UCSF’s Davide Ruggero, PhD, and colleagues found that mice in which activity of a protein called eIF4E is diminished, either genetically or pharmaceutically, gain only half the weight of other mice, even if all the mice eat a high-fat diet.

Is this one protein responsible for weight gain?
