Inflammation identified as a key driver in the earliest stages of lung cancer

By creating high-resolution cellular and molecular visual maps of lung cancer before and during development, researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that the earliest stages of lung cancer may be driven by inflammation, suggesting that targeting proinflammatory pathways could be an early intervention approach.

Studies reveal how hereditary angioedema disrupts the lives of children and families

Two new studies being presented at the 2025 American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando shed light on how hereditary angioedema (HAE) – a rare, potentially life-threatening disease which causes unpredictable swelling – profoundly affects the daily lives, emotional wellbeing, and medical experiences of young patients and their caregivers.

Can creatine help with depression? New review says results are inconclusive

Creatine supplementation may modestly reduce depressive symptoms, but the effect is small, uncertain, and likely influenced by study bias. The evidence remains of very low quality, highlighting the need for larger, well-designed clinical trials.

Alzheimer’s breakthrough reveals how tweaking one gene shields brain connections

Lowering the transcription factor PU.1 reprograms microglia into a neuroprotective, lymphoid-like state that compacts amyloid, blocks tau spread, and preserves synapses in Alzheimer’s disease. Microglial CD28 signaling helps restrain inflammation, revealing a regulatory switch that may inform future immunotherapies targeting microglia rather than neurons.

Gluten-free guide lifts diet quality for children but lasting change needs support

A new pilot RCT in children with celiac disease found that a single counselling session using a Gluten-Free Food Guide (GFFG) temporarily improved diet quality, variety, and milk intake but the benefits faded within six months. Ongoing support may be essential for lasting dietary change.
