限时进食改善消防员健康
拉霍亚—消防员是我们社会的英雄，全天候保护着我们。但这些 24 小时的轮班工作对身体非常不利，并且会增加患心脏代谢疾病（如心脏病和糖尿病）以及癌症的风险。圣地亚哥消防局与索尔克研究所和加州大学圣地亚哥分校健康中心的科学家合作进行的一项临床试验发现，限时进食可以改善消防员的健康和福祉指标。这种生活方式干预措施仅要求消防员在 10 小时的时间窗口内进食，并且不涉及跳餐。. 阅读更多 »

LA JOLLA—As the tools to study biology improve, researchers are beginning to uncover details into microproteins, small components that appear to be key to some cellular processes, including those involved with cancer. Proteins are made up of chains of linked amino acids and the average human protein contains around 300 amino acids. Meanwhile, microproteins have fewer than 100 amino acids. 阅读更多 »
The vast majority of deadly lung cancer cases (85 percent) are termed non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs), which often contain a mutated gene called LKB1. Salk Institute researchers have now discovered precisely why inactive LKB1 results in cancer development. The surprising results, published in the online version of Cancer Discovery on July 26, 2019, highlight how LBK1 communicates with two enzymes that suppress inflammation in addition to cell growth, to block tumor growth. The findings could lead to new therapies for NSCLC. 阅读更多 »
From the beginning of the Salk Institute, with the open architecture, the emphasis on people working with and collaborating with one another has been a secret to many of the big discoveries that have been made here. With the Concurring Cancer Initiative at Salk, we have five groups each of whom represents a different discipline all of whom have a common goal and each of us are highly motivated to work with one another to cure this very devastating disease.
