An Ashton-based fostering service is marking its 25th anniversary with a 25km walk on the Guild Wheel
Caritas Care has approved 138 foster carers and provided a safe and loving home for almost 300 children and young people over the past quarter of a century.
Leaving their Head Office on Tulketh Road at 9.30am, the group will start the first leg of their walk to Brockholes Nature Reserve where they will stop for lunch before they re-join the path to complete their challenge.

Customizing T cell-based immunotherapies using new 'SNAPtag' technologyUniversity of Pittsburgh researchers have developed a universal receptor system that allows T cells to recognize any cell surface target, enabling highly customizable CAR T cell and other immunotherapies for treating cancer and other diseases. The discovery could extend into solid tumors and give more patients access to the game-changing results CAR T cell therapy has produced in certain blood cancers.

Location and condition based reconstruction of colon cancer microbiome from human RNA sequencing data - Genome MedicineBackground The association between microbes and cancer has been reported repeatedly; however, it is not clear if molecular tumour properties are connected to specific microbial colonisation patterns. This is due mainly to the current technical and analytical strategy limitations to characterise tumour-associated bacteria. Methods Here, we propose an approach to detect bacterial signals in human RNA sequencing data and associate them with the clinical and molecular properties of the tumours. The method was tested on public datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas, and its accuracy was assessed on a new cohort of colorectal cancer patients. Results Our analysis shows that intratumoural microbiome composition is correlated with survival, anatomic location, microsatellite instability, consensus molecular subtype and immune cell infiltration in colon tumours. In particular, we find Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Coprococcus comes, Bacteroides spp., Fusobacterium spp. and Clostridium spp. to be strongly associated with tumour properties. Conclusions We implemented an approach to concurrently analyse clinical and molecular properties of the tumour as well as the composition of the associated microbiome. Our results may improve patient stratification and pave the path for mechanistic studies on microbiota-tumour crosstalk.
