Bowel cancer’s “Big Bang” moment reveals how the disease takes shape

Like the astronomical explosion that kickstarted the universe, bowel cancer has a "Big Bang" moment which determines how it will grow, according to new research from Cancer Research UK and Wellcome Trust-funded scientists.

Do gut microbes cause autism? New research says diet plays the bigger role

In a family-based study, researchers found that children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) shared similar gut microbiomes with their relatives but showed distinctly different eating habits. Their preference for sweets and limited vegetable intake suggests behavior-driven dietary choices may influence, rather than result from, microbiome differences.

Researchers uncover molecular key to prevent brown fat decline with age

As the body ages, brown adipose tissue activity decreases, fewer calories are burned, and this can contribute to obesity and certain chronic cardiovascular diseases that worsen with age.

Adipose tissue stem cells show promise in treating osteoporotic vertebral fractures

An Osaka Metropolitan University team has used stem cells extracted from adipose, the body's fatty tissue, to treat spine fractures in rats similar to those caused by osteoporosis in humans.

Action needed to fix gender gap in cardiac rehab

Addressing barriers to cardiac rehab for women is essential. The AHA's guidelines focus on enhancing access and promoting effective heart health strategies.

Senotherapeutics mitigate the root drivers of age- and obesity-related metabolic disease

A growing body of evidence implicates cellular senescence-when cells age and permanently stop dividing-as an important contributor to metabolic dysfunction that can lead to obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.

Gut bacteria metabolize nitrogen compounds to prevent cancer-causing nitrosamines

Nitrogen metabolism of gut bacteria can provide health benefits. Specifically, gut microbes metabolize dietary nitrates and nitrites and prevent the formation of cancer-causing compounds called nitrosamines.

PTGES3 emerges as key regulator of androgen receptor in prostate cancer

A poorly characterized protein, historically thought to be a chaperone or enzyme, may actually be a key player in prostate cancer.

Drug-resistant bloodstream infections expected to rise across Europe by 2030

The rates of bloodstream infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria will increase substantially across Europe in the next five years, driven largely by aging populations, according to a new paper published November 4th in the open-access journal PLOS Medicine by Gwenan Knight of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK, and colleagues.

Hidden cell structures reveal a common weakness in leukemia

A hidden structure inside the cell is rewriting how scientists understand leukemia. Beneath the microscope, what looked like disorder turned out to follow a simple physical rule – one that connects several major mutations behind the disease.

People with traumatic spinal cord injuries at higher risk of developing chronic health problems

A new study by investigators from Mass General Brigham shows that patients with traumatic spinal cord injuries (TSCI) are at a higher risk of developing a myriad of chronic health problems, regardless of age, location of the injury and prior health status.
