Study links extended breastfeeding to stronger infant immune health

Breastfeeding until at least six months helps babies to fight off infections and reduces chronic inflammation, according to a new study. And better understanding the way specific nutrients in breast milk impact the immune system will improve health outcomes for all infants including those not breastfed.

SMOC1 gene plays a surprising role in the development of type 2 diabetes

Scientists at City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the U.S., and a leading research center for diabetes and other life-threatening illnesses, have uncovered a gene called SMOC1 that plays a surprising role in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) by converting pancreatic cells that normally produce insulin into those that increase blood sugar.

FDA grants approval to begin Phase I clinical trials of heart tissue regeneration drug AD-NP1

The body's tissues can get injured in many ways, but while some injuries heal perfectly, others don't heal at all. A cut in the skin, for example, usually heals all on its own, while internal organs, such as the heart after a heart attack or the kidney after an acute injury, remain damaged, leading to diminished function.

Super-resolution imaging unlocks the role of transporter nanoclusters in tumor metabolism

Serine serves as a metabolic nexus in tumors, coordinating one-carbon metabolism, nucleotide synthesis, and redox regulation. In recent years, targeting the serine metabolic pathway, particularly the rate-limiting enzyme PHGDH, has attracted considerable attention as a promising anticancer strategy.
