Vaccine-induced neutralizing and non-neutralizing antibody activity against SARS-CoV-2

A new study demonstrated that vaccine-induced antibody functions against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) diminish with age.

Landmark clinical trial aims to treat spina bifida before birth

Three babies have been born after receiving the world's first spina bifida treatment combining surgery with stem cells. This was made possible by a landmark clinical trial at UC Davis Health.

New biosensing technology for detecting Alzheimer’s disease in the blood

Researchers from Hokkaido University and Toppan have developed a method to detect build-up of amyloid β in the brain, a characteristic of Alzheimer's disease, from biomarkers in blood samples.

Study suggests an immunological benefit of combining previous natural infection with vaccination against COVID-19 using a combination of different vaccine platforms

Researchers explored SARS-CoV-2-targeted immune responses among COVAC1 participants who received a novel saRNA vaccine followed by the mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine BNT162b2 vaccine, with or without prior COVID-19 history.

New platform for gene editing may change the landscape of CRISPR-based therapeutics

A team of researchers at Northwestern University has devised a new platform for gene editing that could inform the future application of a near-limitless library of CRISPR-based therapeutics.

USF researchers test a protein that shows potential as novel therapeutic for ALS patients

Researchers at the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine, located at the University of South Florida, successfully tested a protein that has the potential to aid in the development of a protein-based therapy for patients with ALS, a progressive nervous system disease, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.

Simple new symptom-based screening tool detects asthma risk in young children

A team of researchers working with the CHILD Cohort Study (CHILD) has developed a simple new symptom-based screening tool that detects asthma risk in children as young as two years of age.

Study links pancreatic cancer survival outcomes with arrangement of immune cells in tumors

Researchers from Johns Hopkins Medicine have discovered that the organization of different types of immune cells within pancreatic tumors is associated with how well patients with pancreatic cancer respond to treatment and how long they survive.

Researchers develop new bandage treatment to treat diabetic foot ulcers

Researchers at Queen's University Belfast have designed a new bandage treatment, known as a scaffold, to treat diabetic foot ulcers, which is cost-effective while improving patient outcomes.

6 Oct 2022

Scientists discover a new drug-resistance mechanism in breast cancer

Scientists from Università Cattolica in Rome, together with colleagues from the IIGM Foundation (part of Candiolo Institute at Turin), have discovered a new drug-resistance mechanism in breast cancer that leads to the formation of cancer stem cells, (the cells that feed the tumor and cause relapse and metastasis).

Researchers identify a new gene implicated in rare lysosomal storage disorder

In a rare disease called mucolipidosis type II, people’s hearts and abdomens swell, and their bones grow malformed.

6 Oct 2022

Impaired immune responses not responsible for COVID-19 rebound, findings suggest

Findings from a small study of eight patients published in Clinical Infectious Diseases suggest that COVID-19 rebound is likely not caused by impaired immune responses.

6 Oct 2022

Improved brain organoids provide cellular and molecular insights into autism

Whatever you do, don't call them "mini-brains," say University of Utah Health scientists. Regardless, the seed-sized organoids - which are grown in the lab from human cells - provide insights into the brain and uncover differences that may contribute to autism in some people.
