Evolution of cooperation among tumor cells
The evolution of cooperation has a well established theoretical framework based on game theory. This approach has made valuable contributions to a wide variety of disciplines, including political science, economics, and evolutionary biology. Existing cancer theory suggests that individual clones of cancer cells evolve independently from one another, acquiring all of the genetic traits or hallmarks necessary to form a malignant tumor. It is also now recognized that tumors are heterotypic, with cancer cells interacting with normal stromal cells within the issue microenvironment, including endothelial, stromal, and nerve cells. This tumor cell???stromal cell interaction in itself is a form of commensalism, because it has been demonstrated that these nonmalignant cells support and even enable tumor growth. Here, we add to this theory by regarding tumor cells as game players whose interactions help to determine their Darwinian fitness. We marshal evidence that tumor cells overcome certain host defenses by means of diffusible products. Our original contribution is to raise the possibility that two nearby cells can protect each other from a set of host defenses that neither could survive alone. Cooperation can evolve as byproduct mutualism among genetically diverse tumor cells. Our hypothesis supplements, but does not supplant, the traditional view of carcinogenesis in which one clonal population of cells develops all of the necessary genetic traits independently to form a tumor. Cooperation through the sharing of diffusible products raises new questions about tumorigenesis and has implications for understanding observed phenomena, designing new experiments, and developing new therapeutic approaches.Author manuscript.

Hydrogen generation from water/methanol under visible light using aerogel prepared strontium titanate (SrTiO[subscript 3]) nanomaterials doped with ruthenium and rhodium metals
Nanostructured strontium titanate visible-light-driven photocatalysts containing rhodium and ruthenium were synthesized by a modified aerogel synthesis using ruthenium chloride and rhodium nitrate as dopants precursors, and titanium isopropoxide and strontium metal for the metal sources. The well-defined crystalline SrTiO[subscript 3] structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). After calcination at 500 °C, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy shows the increase of light absorption at 370 nm due to the presence of Rh[superscript 3+]; however an increase of calcination temperature to 600 °C led to a decrease in intensity, probably due to loss of surface area. An increase in rhodium doping amount also led to an increase in absorption at 370 nm; however, they higher amounts of dopant lowered photocatalytic activity. The modified aerogel synthesis allows greatly enhanced H2 production performance from an aqueous methanol solution under visible light irradiation, compared with lower surface area conventional materials. We believe this enhanced activity is due to higher surface areas while still yielding high quality nanocrystalline materials. Furthermore, the surface properties of these nanocrystalline aerogel materials are different, as exhibited by higher activities in alkaline solutions, while conventional materials (via high temperature solid-state synthesis methods) only exhibit reasonable hydrogen
production in acidic solutions. Moreover, an aerogel synthesis approach gives the possibility of thin-film formation and ease of incorporation for practical solar devices
