An international research team led by Professor Dr. Peter Claus, molecular biologist at the Institute of Neuroanatomy and Cell Biology [...] the B-Raf switch is down regulated. Because this happens before symptoms even appear, the research team believes they have found an important regulator of the disease. "We used a molecular trick to investigate [...] expand the therapy options and thus achieve better results," says Professor Claus. Next, the research team therefore wants to investigate an improved therapy and search for further molecular switches. SERVICE:
