New small molecule shows promise against cutaneous HPV infections

Human papillomaviruses, or HPVs, can cause dangerous infections in the skin and mucous membranes and may lead to cancer.

New RNA-based liquid biopsy detects early colorectal cancer with high accuracy

Liquid biopsies are tests that detect signs of cancer through a simple blood draw. Unlike traditional biopsies, which require removing a piece of tissue, a liquid biopsy typically looks for mutations or modification changes in fragments of DNA from cancer cells circulating in the blood.

KAIST scientists develop tool to fight drug resistance in cancer

One of the biggest obstacles in cancer treatment is drug resistance in cancer cells. Conventional efforts have focused on identifying new drug targets to eliminate these resistant cells, but such approaches can often lead to even stronger resistance.

Tiny nanobody shows big promise in fighting Nipah and Hendra viruses

Researchers have discovered a strategy to neutralize two highly lethal viruses for which there is currently no approved vaccine or cure.

Aspartame triggers genetic changes tied to glioblastoma severity

Study shows aspartame affects gut microbiome and gene expression in glioblastoma, highlighting potential links to cancer progression and treatment strategies.

Lasting COVID-19 vulnerability in childhood cancer survivors

The study finds childhood cancer survivors at higher risk for severe COVID-19, stressing the importance of tailored interventions for vulnerable populations.

Early-onset gastrointestinal cancer rates rising across the globe

A new paper in BJS, published by Oxford University Press, indicates that early-onset gastrointestinal cancer rates are rising dramatically across the globe.

Landmark discovery reshapes understanding of key cancer protein MCL-1

Landmark research on MCL-1, a critical protein that is an attractive target for cancer drug development, helps explain why some promising cancer treatments are causing serious side effects, and offers a roadmap for designing safer, more targeted therapies.

Cysteine plays key role in weight loss and fat metabolism

Consuming fewer calories is largely accepted as a way to improve health and lose weight, but a recently published study in Nature Metabolism points to a specific sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine as a key component in weight loss.

Corticosteroids may reduce effectiveness of immunotherapy in lung cancer

Corticosteroids, a commonly prescribed medication to alleviate cancer-related symptoms for non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with immunotherapy, are the main reason certain immunotherapies may fail in treating the disease, according to new research by Keck Medicine of USC.

Innovative bispecific antibody targets LAG-3 to treat autoimmune diseases

Immune checkpoint pathways regulate T cell function and play pivotal roles in the treatment of both cancer and autoimmune diseases.

New combination therapy inhibits tumor growth and blocks drug-induced resistance in ovarian cancer

A pairing of two experimental drugs inhibits tumor growth and blocks drug-induced resistance in ovarian cancer, according to a preclinical study led by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.

7 Jul 2025

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.

7 Jul 2025

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.
