Study maps gene activity across pregnancy breastfeeding and post-weaning stages

In a study in mice, researchers have identified genes associated with the dramatic transformation of the mammary gland in pregnancy, breastfeeding, and after breastfeeding as it returns to its resting state.

HPV-DeepSeek shows promise for early detection of head and neck cancer

Human papilloma virus (HPV) causes around 70% of head and neck cancers in the United States, making it the most common cancer caused by the virus, with rates increasing each year.

Ketogenic diet shows promise in reducing depression symptoms in college students

A new study shows an association between at least 10 weeks of following a well-formulated ketogenic diet and a roughly 70% decrease in depression symptoms among a small group of college students.

Researchers reveal why no level of air pollution is safe for respiratory health

A review in the Journal of Clinical Investigation shows how particulate matter damages the lungs through oxidative stress, inflammation, and immune disruption. It links air pollution to asthma, COPD, lung cancer, infections, and millions of premature deaths, with no safe exposure threshold.

Planetary health diet links to longer life and lower emissions

Greater adherence to the Planetary Health Diet was linked to lower all-cause, cancer, and respiratory mortality across large US and UK cohorts, supported by a meta-analysis of 37 studies. Diets higher in PHD foods also had smaller greenhouse gas footprints, reinforcing health and environmental benefits.

High consumption of ultra-processed foods increases a sensitive marker of inflammation

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrially altered products – like soda, snacks and processed meats – packed with additives and stripped of nutrients.

City of Hope launches innovative national clinical trials model to expand access to cancer treatments

City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the U.S., launched an innovative national clinical trials model to expand access to emerging life-saving cancer treatments to more patients across the country.

IFITM3 found to be critical regulator of immunotherapy sensitivity in small cell lung cancer

New research presented identifies interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) as a critical regulator of immunotherapy sensitivity in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), offering a promising new avenue for overcoming resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade.

Researchers uncover a previously unknown mechanism behind chromosome end protection

Researchers have uncovered a previously unknown mechanism that safeguards the chromosome ends from being mistakenly repaired by the cell.

New tool can predict where deadly brain cancer might reappear

Glioblastoma is a devastatingly effective brain cancer. Doctors can cut it out or blast it with radiation, but that only buys time. The cancer has an insidious ability to hide enough tumor cells in tissue around the tumor to allow it to return as deadly as ever.

LuCE study identifies key communication barriers between lung cancer patients and caregivers

A large-scale survey conducted by Lung Cancer Europe (LuCE) has identified critical communication barriers that affect information access, understanding, and shared decision-making among lung cancer patients and caregivers across Europe.

Study highlights potential value of low-dose CT screening for lung cancer among Asian women

Results from the Female Asian Nonsmoker Screening Study (FANSS) highlight the potential value of low-dose CT (LDCT) screening for lung cancer among a growing but underserved population: Asian women with no history of smoking.

Monitoring ctDNA can personalize the use of consolidation immunotherapy in patients with LS-SCLC

A new study presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) demonstrates that monitoring circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can refine and personalize the use of consolidation immunotherapy in patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC).

Exploring whether chemotherapy disrupts biological clock in the brain to impair circadian rhythms

During and after chemotherapy, nearly half of cancer patients endure circadian rhythm disruptions, which worsens treatment side effects.

‘Rogue’ DNA rings identified as drivers of aggressive brain cancer

An international team of scientists has revealed how rogue rings of DNA that float outside of our chromosomes – known as extrachromosomal DNA, or ecDNA – can drive the growth of a large proportion of glioblastomas, the most common and aggressive adult brain cancer.

Smart material delivers drugs in response to arthritis flare-ups

Researchers have developed a material that can sense tiny changes within the body, such as during an arthritis flare-up, and release drugs exactly where and when they are needed.

Why smartphone use on the toilet may increase hemorrhoid risk

Adults using smartphones on the toilet spent significantly more time seated and had 46% higher odds of hemorrhoids on colonoscopy. The cross-sectional study suggests prolonged sitting, not straining, may be the key driver of hemorrhoid risk.

Common diabetes drug metformin cuts long covid risk by 64 percent in UK study

A large UK-based retrospective cohort study found that initiating metformin within 90 days of COVID-19 diagnosis reduced the risk of Long COVID by 64% in overweight and obese adults. The findings suggest metformin may offer a low-cost preventive option pending confirmation from randomized trials.
