Scientists discover neuron-like communication system in the gut

In a key advance for regenerative medicine and gut health, scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have uncovered a precise and unexpected communication system in the gut.

Gut bacteria send direct signals to the brain to stop you from overeating

Researchers have discovered a novel gut-brain sensory circuit in mice where specialized colonic cells sense bacterial flagellin and rapidly suppress feeding via the vagus nerve. This "neurobiotic sense" operates independently of immune pathways, revealing a direct neural mechanism for microbiota-host communication.

Can one drug do it all? Reviewing the expanding clinical universe of GLP-1 agonists

Landmark trials have shown that GLP-1 receptor agonists, originally developed for diabetes and weight loss, also provide significant benefits for cardiovascular, kidney, liver, joint, and sleep-related diseases. These effects extend beyond weight loss, suggesting anti-inflammatory mechanisms with broad potential for managing chronic diseases.

Dual cancer drugs restore memory and rewire brain cells in Alzheimer’s mouse models

Researchers identified a combination of two existing cancer drugs, letrozole and irinotecan, that reversed Alzheimer’s disease-related changes in brain cell networks and improved memory in mouse models. The study supports a multi-cell-type, network-correcting strategy as a promising path for future Alzheimer’s treatments.
