Web-based cytometry atlas reveals immune signatures across pancreatic cancer treatments

Oncologists have achieved some immune system responses in patients with pancreatic cancers using various combinations of vaccines and immune checkpoint inhibitor drugs, but it's not always clear which therapy is inducing what type of response.

Gut microbiota analysis offers insights into how ultra processed foods affect health

To gain more knowledge about how ultra-processed food affects us, we need new research methods, claim researchers. Now they are looking to better understand our intestinal flora.

Investigational cancer vaccine shows early promise for cancer prevention in Lynch syndrome

The investigational cancer vaccine, NOUS-209, was found to safely stimulate the immune system to target precancerous and cancerous cells in individuals with Lynch Syndrome (LS), according to a study from researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Targeting microRNA communication reverses pancreatic cancer's immune suppression

In a unique finding, researchers at Georgetown's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center discovered that when pancreatic cancer cells send out tiny particles that are packed with certain microRNA molecules, nearby immune cells called macrophages are reprogrammed to help the tumor grow instead of engaging in their regular role of fighting the tumor.

Father's early behavior linked to child's heart and metabolic health years later

How a new father behaves toward his baby can change family dynamics in a way that affects the child's heart and metabolic health years later, according to a new study by researchers in the Penn State College of Health and Human Development.

Natural brakes on inflammation could treat chronic diseases

Researchers at University College London (UCL) have uncovered a key mechanism that helps the body switch off inflammation – a breakthrough that could lead to new treatments for chronic diseases affecting millions worldwide.

CTDNEP1 identified as potential tumor suppressor in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common type of pancreatic cancer and begins in the cells lining the pancreatic duct.

Immune dysfunction persists after combined TB and HIV therapy

The immune system remains seriously out-of-whack – in an inflammatory state of overactivation and impaired functionality – following the international gold standard for treating people with latent tuberculosis (TB) and HIV, a team at Texas Biomedical Research Institute reports in Nature Communications.

Bacterial metabolite enhances immune checkpoint therapy against lung cancer

UF Health Cancer Institute researchers have discovered a small compound produced naturally by gut bacteria that doubled the response to lung cancer immunotherapy treatment in mice and can now be made into a drug for testing in humans.

Rare immune events link Epstein Barr virus to early multiple sclerosis damage

Autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis arise when the immune system turns against the body itself.

14 Jan 2026

CRISPR-Cas3: A safer gene-editing tool shows promise for transthyretin amyloidosis treatment

Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), of an organism. Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a progressive disorder involving amyloid deposits of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) proteins.

Age-tailored therapies needed for treating the young and old with sepsis

Dealing with an infection isn't as straightforward as simply killing the pathogen. The body also needs to carefully steer and monitor its immune response to prevent collateral damage.

14 Jan 2026

Lund researchers create "recipe book" for reprogramming immune cells to fight disease

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the "recipe" for the transformation.

Bacterial toxin shrinks tumors, enhances immune response in colorectal cancer study

A toxin secreted by cholera bacteria can inhibit the growth of colorectal cancer without causing any measurable damage to the body. This is shown by a new study by researchers at Umeå University, Sweden.

14 Jan 2026

DTU researchers discover gut bacteria link to reduced allergy and asthma risk

Researchers from DTU have patented an invention that uses naturally produced substances from gut bacteria of the bifidobacteria type to reduce the risk of allergies and asthma.

Vaccines are helping older people more than we knew

Let's be clear: The primary reason to be vaccinated against shingles is that two shots provide at least 90% protection against a painful, blistering disease that a third of Americans will suffer in their lifetimes, one that can cause lingering nerve pain and other nasty long-term consequences.
