Comprehensive antibody map reveals how SARS-CoV-2 mutations evade immunity

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators have created the most comprehensive map to date showing how antibodies attach to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, and how viral mutations weaken that attachment.

Reduced ketone body metabolism may be key to impaired energy production in type 2 diabetes

The liver plays a central role in storing and supplying energy to the body. In type 2 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD, commonly referred to as fatty liver disease), mitochondria-the cell's power plants-cannot switch efficiently between fuel sources.

CAR T cell therapy could be a highly effective tool against atherosclerosis

A pioneering preclinical study has shown that CAR T cell therapy-a personalized form of immunotherapy used in cancer treatment-could be a highly effective tool against atherosclerosis, the condition where a build-up of plaque in the arteries reduces blood flow, leading to heart attacks and strokes.

US cancer registries, constrained by Trump policies, to recognize only ‘male’ or ‘female’ patients

The top authorities of U.S. cancer statistics will soon have to classify the sex of patients strictly as male, female, or unknown, a change scientists and advocates say will harm the health of transgender people, one of the nation's most marginalized populations.
