Researchers explore new therapies to prevent organ rejection without immunosuppressive drugs

While immunosuppressive medications are critical to prevent rejection of transplant organs, they also come with plenty of downsides.

Reversing immune fatigue offers new hope for cancer treatment

CD8⁺ T cells are the immune system's frontline warriors, charged with detecting and eliminating cancer cells. But in the hostile and chronic environment of tumors, these cells often falter.

Metabolic enzyme PHGDH found to play a surprising role in breast cancer immunity

Macrophages are immune cells with a split personality: some fight tumors, while others help them grow. In breast cancer, most macrophages fall into the latter camp—dubbed M2-like—fueling tumor progression and dampening immune responses.

Synthetic Biology and the Pursuit of Living Diagnostics and Therapeutics

In this interview, Professor James J. Collins, founder of the field of Synthetic Biology, discusses his journey to founding the field of synthetic biology and the potential of living diagnostics.

Excess weight linked to breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women with cardiovascular disease

New research reveals that excess weight is linked to an especially high risk of developing breast cancer in postmenopausal women with cardiovascular disease.

Flavonoid diversity, not just quantity, drives better health outcomes

This study reveals that diverse flavonoid intake is crucial for lowering chronic disease risk and mortality, advocating for a varied diet rich in flavonoids.

ADA2 regulates inflammation through lysosomal and extracellular mechanisms

Adenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2) plays a critical role in immune regulation, particularly in monocyte differentiation and activation.

Preeclampsia in pregnancy reduces risk of some cancers but raises endometrial cancer odds

Women with preeclampsia in their first pregnancy had a lower risk of developing breast, cervical, and lung cancer later in life, but a higher risk of endometrial cancer. The large Nordic cohort study also found that siblings of women with PE had a modestly reduced risk of cancer, particularly lung cancer.

Mitochondria depletion in stem cells offers insights into cellular energy and evolution

By using a genetic technique developed at UT Southwestern Medical Center that forces cells to rid themselves of mitochondria, researchers are gaining new insights into the function of these critical organelles.

Multifunctional nanodisk enables cancer diagnosis, treatment and immune activation

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS, President Lee Ho Seong) has successfully developed a nanomaterial capable of simultaneously performing cancer diagnosis, treatment, and immune response induction.

Bayesian neural networks advance understanding of gut microbe metabolism

Gut bacteria are known to be a key factor in many health-related concerns. However, the number and variety of them is vast, as are the ways in which they interact with the body's chemistry and each other.

Amino acid metabolism in breast cancer as a driver of disease and therapeutic target

The review introduces the molecular subtypes of breast cancer and outlines how altered amino acid metabolism supports tumor growth.

Ireland's first and only BioBrillouin microscope installed at Trinity College Dublin

Trinity College Dublin now has Ireland's first and only BioBrillouin microscope, which will enable researchers to make giant strides in the fields of inflammation, cancer, developmental biology and biomedical materials, among others.

Planned C-sections linked to increased risk of developing childhood leukemia

Children born by planned C-section have an increased risk of developing acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) later in life.

XPR1 silencing enhances immune response and reduces ovarian tumor growth

A recent study published in Genes & Diseases reveals a novel role of XPR1 in promoting ovarian cancer growth by regulating autophagy and MHC-I expression.

EMP1 identified as key driver of tumor progression in resectable pancreatic cancer

The latest research published in Genes & Diseases unveils groundbreaking insights into the role of the aging process and the associated factor EMP1 in the progression of resectable pancreatic cancer (PC).

Fluorescent drug helps surgeons see nerves clearly during complex procedures

When surgeons dissect tissue to remove a tumor or make a repair they must work cautiously, relying on electrophysical monitors and their own anatomical knowledge to avoid cutting nerves, which could complicate the patient's recovery.

Rare kidney cancer evades immune system in unique ways

Cancer fighting T-cells, the immune system's primary enforcers, are scarce in the rare kidney cancer called chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (ChRCC) and those that are present are indifferent to the tumor threat and traditional immune therapies, revealing the need for new targets and treatments.

Innovative approach for the development of next-generation cancer therapies targeting FGFR2/3

Aberrations in fibroblast growth factor receptors FGFR2/3 are major drivers of many cancers-including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, endometrial, breast, gastric, and bladder cancers.

4 Jul 2025

Novel tool offers a glimpse into the black box of ALT in aggressive cancers

Each time a cell divides, a small section of each chromosome's protective cap - the telomere - is worn away. Most cells use an enzyme called telomerase to help mitigate this loss, but 10% to 15% of cancers have another mechanism called the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) pathway.
