Newly discovered perineural pathway enables HIV virus to redistribute throughout the body

Addressing the question of whether and how immune cells (macrophages) in the central nervous system (CNS) traffic out, researchers have now identified a perineural pathway through which the HIV virus can redistribute throughout the body.

Tryptophan deficiency in breast milk may explain health challenges in children born to mothers with HIV

A new UCLA study reveals that breast milk from women living with HIV contains significantly lower levels of tryptophan, an essential amino acid likely important for infant immune function, growth, and brain development.

Hypoxia weakens the body's infection defense by changing genetic material of neutrophils

Low oxygen levels in the blood can alter the genetic makeup of key immune cells, weakening the body's ability to fight infection, new research shows.

Electronic health record data reveals trends in cardiovascular diseases before and after COVID-19

The electronic health record data analyzed in this study is anonymized and never leaves a secure data environment, which is only accessible by approved researchers working on approved projects.

Eating peanuts while pregnant may influence how a child’s genes respond to breastfeeding

Maternal peanut and peanut butter consumption during pregnancy and breastfeeding shaped DNA methylation patterns in children, particularly in genes regulating neurodevelopment and inflammation. These findings suggest maternal diet can prime offspring epigenetic sensitivity to breastfeeding duration.

TRF1 protein depletion linked to leaner mice and altered metabolism

A new research paper was published in Volume 17, Issue 9 of Aging-US on September 17, 2025, titled "Depletion of the TRF1 telomere-binding protein leads to leaner mice with altered metabolic profiles."

Study reveals how eosinophils play a protective role against Candida infections

New research shows that eosinophils, immune cells usually linked to allergies, also play a protective role against Candida infections by using the CD48 receptor to recognize the fungus and release proteins that stop its growth.

Scientists uncover excessive maturation and aging in the hippocampus

In a groundbreaking study, researchers at Fujita Health University and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science have uncovered a previously overlooked form of brain abnormality linked to anxiety: excessive maturation and aging in the hippocampus, a state they term "hyper-maturity."

Genetic analysis of blood sample could offer a non-invasive way for early Parkinson’s diagnosis

The genetic analysis of a blood sample could become a tool for the early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, according to an exploratory study led by researchers from the Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH).

Study finds bright nights raise risk for stroke and heart failure in adults over 40

A large UK Biobank study found that higher night-time light exposure is linked to significantly greater risks of coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure, and other cardiovascular conditions. The findings suggest maintaining darker nights and adequate daytime light could support heart health.

Prenatal air pollution exposure tied to higher autism risk in children

A population-based study of over two million births in Ontario found that prenatal exposure to the sulfate and ammonium components of fine particulate matter (PM₂.₅) was associated with a higher risk of autism spectrum disorder. The risk was greatest during mid to late pregnancy and among infants in urban, lower-income neighborhoods.

Are ultra-processed plant foods really worse than meat? Scientists weigh in

A new review challenges assumptions about ultra-processed foods, finding that plant-based versions, such as soymilk, meat analogs, and soft margarines, may lower cholesterol and disease risk compared with unprocessed animal foods when used as replacements.

Mitochondria and lysosomes work together to control regulatory T cell activation

Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the immune system.

New insight into TRPM3 heat sensor reveals how the body detects temperature

The ability to sense heat protects the body from burns and injury. But how the body actually feels temperature has remained an elusive mystery.

Unlocking the secrets of vascular health through eye imaging

The tiny blood vessels in your eyes might hold the key to predicting a person's risk of developing heart disease and how fast they're biologically aging, according to researchers at McMaster University and Population Health Research Institute (PHRI) - a joint institute of Hamilton Health Sciences and McMaster.
