Magnetically-powered nanorobots enhance drug uptake in tumors

Spiky nanorobots powered by magnets have been developed to carry drugs and pierce tumor cell membranes, a key barrier to effective cancer treatment. By boosting drug entry, these "microscopic scalpels" improved chemotherapy results in laboratory and animal studies, suppressing tumor growth and extending survival.

PRMT5 inhibition induces ferroptosis and enhances immunotherapy efficacy in renal cell carcinoma

Ferroptosis, a regulated cell death mechanism, is emerging as a promising target for cancer therapy. The process is mediated by the activity of acyl-CoA synthetase family member 4 (ACSL4) protein.

New quintuple agonist shows promise for treating obesity and type 2 diabetes

Much excitement has built in recent years on the new class of incretin drugs that include glucagon-like-peptide-1 inhibitor (single agonists such as semaglutide) and also dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (dual agonists such tirzepatide).

Coffee protects the liver by blocking inflammation and scarring, review finds

A new review in Biochemical Pharmacology synthesizes decades of research showing consistent links between regular coffee consumption and reduced risk of liver disease, including cirrhosis and liver cancer. Coffee’s bioactive compounds act on antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antifibrotic, and metabolic pathways to slow liver damage progression.

Do tongue piercings harm your oral health? Evidence points to yes

Researchers reviewed 19 studies on tongue piercings and found they carry significant oral health risks, including fractures, gum recession, infections, and rare systemic complications. The evidence base is limited but highlights the need for clinician vigilance and patient awareness.

Hurricane Sandy survivors face elevated heart risks long after the storm

Researchers studying Medicare beneficiaries found that Hurricane Sandy–related flooding modestly increased cardiovascular disease risk for up to five years. Heart failure drove much of the rise, particularly in New Jersey, with short-term and delayed spikes observed.

Why universal COVID-19 vaccine guidance offers stronger protection than high-risk-only policies

The US Scenario Modeling Hub’s nine-team ensemble projected COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths for April 2024 to April 2025 under six policy and immune-escape scenarios. Burden was similar to the prior year, with universal vaccination recommendations averting more outcomes than high-risk-only guidance, especially for adults aged 65 years and older.

Inhaling marijuana associated with increased odds of developing asthma

If you're looking to reduce your chances of developing lung disease, say experts at UC San Francisco, then it may be smart to avoid inhaling cannabis.

Study in Florida finds racial disparities in heart attack treatment

While acute myocardial infarction - commonly referred to as a heart attack - remains a leading cause of death in the United States, deaths have decreased significantly over the past two decades in part due to improved treatment methods, according to Charleen Hsuan, associate professor of health policy and administration at Penn State.

Glucose-fructose mix found in sugary drinks fuels colorectal cancer metastasis

A new study from researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center shows that the glucose-fructose mix found in sugary drinks directly fuels metastasis in preclinical models of advanced colorectal cancer.

Study points to a surprising new ally in the fight against type 2 diabetes

A new study from Duke University School of Medicine is challenging long-standing views on blood sugar regulation - and pointing to a surprising new ally in the fight against type 2 diabetes.

UNM researcher develops new model for characterizing different forms of vascular dementia

Vascular dementia - cognitive impairment caused by disease in the brain's small blood vessels - is a widespread problem, but it has not been as thoroughly studied as Alzheimer's disease, in which abnormal plaques and protein tangles are deposited in neural tissue.

Adults with both Down Syndrome and congenital heart defects show remarkable resilience

Adults with both Down Syndrome and congenital heart defects, also known as congenital heart disease (CHD), are showing remarkable resilience despite facing significant medical challenges, according to a new MUSC study in Pediatric Cardiology.

Replacing red meat with legumes improves heart health and supports weight management

A University of Helsinki study found that partially replacing red and processed meat with pea- and faba bean–based foods resulted in reduced total and 'bad' LDL cholesterol levels in men, along with weight loss.

New framework proposes lactate clearance as key marker for managing cardiogenic shock

A new initiative by The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) proposes a new framework and call to action for managing cardiogenic shock (CS), establishing lactate clearance potentially as the standardized, time-based marker of patient trajectory to improve outcomes in one of the deadliest cardiovascular emergencies.

COST Actions drive innovation in cancer research across Europe

Cancer is a major challenge in the modern world, affecting millions of people across Europe. The prevalence of this disease requires the development of innovative and complementary treatment approaches.

New study warns of millions of undiagnosed and missing people with type 1 diabetes

The global type 1 diabetes (T1D) burden continues to increase rapidly driven by rising cases, ageing populations, improved diagnosis and falling death rates, according to the results of a new modeling study being presented at this year's Annual Meeting of The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), Vienna (15-19 Sept).

Oral drug baricitinib shows promise in slowing early type 1 diabetes progression

In 2023, the groundbreaking Australian BANDIT (Baricitinib in New Onset Type 1 Diabetes) trial [1] reported that a daily pill of baricitinib, commonly prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia, could safely preserve the body's own insulin production and slow the progression of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in people recently diagnosed with the condition.

New research links postictal symptoms in epilepsy to hidden brain waves

In everyday clinical practice, symptoms are regularly observed after epileptic seizures, known as "post-ictal symptoms", which, in contrast to the usually short duration of seizures, typically last several minutes to hours. Besides symptoms such as impaired speech and language comprehension, a state of disorientation may occur.
