Researchers linked a novel long non-coding RNA to glioblastoma cell growth.
The RNA acts alongside EGFR amplification, a change seen in more than half of glioblastoma tumors.
The finding could help EGFR drugs work better if validated in follow-up studies.

Researchers developed a neural mapping method called Connectome-seq.
The technique uses RNA barcodes to identify neuron-to-neuron connections.
The team says it mapped thousands of connections in mice with single-synapse resolution.
The approach could make connectomics faster and more scalable.

Scientists discovered approximately 260,000 cancer-specific small RNAs across 32 tumor types, forming unique molecular barcodes
Machine learning models classified cancer types from RNA signatures with over 90 percent accuracy
About 5 percent of tested oncRNAs actively drive cancer progression, including metastasis
Roughly 30 percent of oncRNAs are secreted into the bloodstream, enabling potential liquid biopsy detection
Patients with high residual oncRNA levels after chemotherapy had nearly four-fold worse survival outcomes
