Researchers uncover molecular pathway driving craniosynostosis

Craniosynostosis is a congenital developmental disorder in which the skull's cranial sutures fuse prematurely.

Combined bio-histological score prevents overtreatment in liver transplant patients

Long‑term outcomes after liver transplantation remain hampered by complications linked to intensive immunosuppression—infections, cardiovascular events, kidney dysfunction, and metabolic disorders affect 10% to 40% of recipients.

Deep-learning tissue clocks reveal how organs age and leave disease-linked signals in blood

Deep learning applied to more than 25,000 histopathology slides revealed tissue-specific structural signatures of biological aging that tracked telomere attrition, pathology, comorbidity, and molecular changes more closely than chronological age alone.

AI-based "tissue clocks" measure the biological age of human organs

AI-based "tissue clocks" can estimate the biological age of human organs from histological images, researchers at the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Network Medicine (LBI-NetMed) at the University of Vienna showed.

Spatial transcriptomics study elucidates cellular dynamics during heart transplant rejection

A new study that explores gene expression during heart transplant rejection marks a step forward for precision medicine approaches to treat organ rejection.

Study tests chronotype’s liver link and finds no significant association

Researchers found no significant association between chronotype and FibroScan-derived liver fat or stiffness in 119 medication-naïve adults with overweight or obesity. The exploratory findings cannot exclude smaller effects, particularly for fibrosis, and require confirmation in larger longitudinal studies.

Immune pathway may promote the progression of oral precancerous lesions

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center identified an immune pathway that may promote the progression of oral precancerous lesions into head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Review outlines how donor imaging improves liver transplantation outcomes

Liver transplantation often depends on decisions made under pressure. In deceased donation, teams must quickly judge whether a liver is suitable, whether fat accumulation could threaten graft function, and whether unexpected vascular anatomy may complicate procurement or implantation.

New AI system classifies brain tumors with unprecedented accuracy

Experts in Heidelberg have developed an AI system that can classify brain tumors with unprecedented accuracy using standard microscopic tissue sections.

Scientists discover how vitamin K pathway regulates bone remodeling

Bone is continuously renewed through a process known as bone remodeling, in which osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) build new bone, while osteoclasts (bone-resorbing cells) remove older mineralized tissue.

Blood test detects tumor DNA to guide advanced cancer treatment

A blood test that detects tumor DNA circulating in the bloodstream may help select the most effective treatment options for cancer patients whose tumors have started to spread, according to one of the largest randomized controlled trials of its kind presented at the Congress of the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO 2026).
