Why metformin could protect the brain by rewiring mitochondria

Metformin boosts human oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination across stem-cell, organoid, and chimera models. The study links these effects to mitochondrial metabolic shifts, supporting its potential as a therapy for multiple sclerosis.

Adding aspirin raises cardiovascular events in high-risk CCS patients on anticoagulants

Adding aspirin increased the risk of cardiovascular events, death and major bleeding in high-risk patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) who had prior stenting and were receiving long-term chronic oral anticoagulation (OAC), according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025 and simultaneously published in New England Journal of Medicine.

Triglyceride levels substantially reduced with olezarsen compared to placebo

Olezarsen decreased levels of triglycerides compared with placebo in patients with moderate hypertriglyceridemia and elevated cardiovascular risk, according to a late-breaking trial presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025 and simultaneously published in New England Journal of Medicine.

Ivabradine fails to prevent myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery in large clinical trial

Ivabradine did not reduce the occurrence of myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS), according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025.

Diabetes drug metformin alters blood metal levels in humans

The widely used diabetes drug metformin changes blood metal levels in humans. The Kobe University study is an important step in understanding the drug's many actions and designing better ones in the future.

Ultra-processed foods affect sperm quality and metabolism even without extra calories

A controlled crossover trial in Cell Metabolism found that ultra-processed foods increase weight, fat mass, LDL:HDL cholesterol, and alter reproductive hormones in men, with some effects independent of calorie load. These diets also showed trends toward reduced sperm motility, shifts in pollutants, and transient inflammatory responses, highlighting risks beyond excess calories.

REBOOT trial finds no benefit of beta blockers after uncomplicated heart attacks

Beta blockers-drugs commonly prescribed for a range of cardiac conditions, including heart attacks-provide no clinical benefit for patients who have had an uncomplicated myocardial infarction with preserved heart function.

Insights into clinical features and genetic variants of Cornelia de Lange syndrome in China

Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is a rare genetic disorder with symptoms, including facial anomalies (such as fused eyebrows, short nose, upturned nose tip, and downturned mouth corners), growth retardation, small head (microcephaly), developmental delays, cognitive impairments, excess hair growth, and limb anomalies.

Exploring the untapped potential of DNA glycosylation

Recent advancements in glycobiology have challenged the traditional understanding of molecular interactions, and a new study published in Engineering titled "Can DNA be glycosylated?" by Wei Wang further explores this emerging field.

Alzheimer’s research uncovers a new therapeutic pathway for the memory-robbing malady

The gut contains the largest collection of immune cells in the body. New research at the Buck Institute shows that some of those immune cells travel along the brain/gut axis in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) providing a potential new therapeutic pathway for the memory-robbing malady.

Inherited DNA changes can cause hormone imbalance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome

Increased testosterone levels are a consistent hormonal abnormality in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This study identified specific DNA variants in the gene DENND1A, which increase testosterone production in PCOS.

Inflammation marker can help identify heart risk in women without traditional factors

Cardiologists have long known that up to half of all heart attacks and strokes occur among apparently healthy individuals who do not smoke and do not have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes, the "standard modifiable risk factors" which doctors often call "SMuRFs."

What are the benefits of chewing gum beyond oral health?

Chewing gum offers health benefits beyond oral care, enhancing performance and recovery, but research gaps for children and seniors need addressing.

PREVENT equations provide more accurate risk estimates and support personalized hypertension care

Using the Predicting Risk of cardiovascular disease EVENTs (PREVENT™) equations provides more accurate risk estimates and supports personalized treatment for adults with high blood pressure or hypertension, according to a new scientific statement published today in the American Heart Association's peer-reviewed journals Circulation and Hypertension, and in JACC, the flagship journal of the American College of Cardiology.

Ultra-processed foods harm reproductive and metabolic health

Over the past 50 years, rates of obesity and type-2 diabetes have soared, while sperm quality has plummeted. Driving these changes could be the increasing popularity of ultra-processed foods, which have been linked to a range of poor health outcomes.

Gut disorders forecast Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s risk years before diagnosis

Study maps clinical, genetic, and proteomic links between gut-brain disorders and neurodegeneration, showing how diabetes, vitamin D deficiency, and bowel disorders forecast Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s years in advance. Multimodal models in biobanks highlight early detection and personalized prevention opportunities.
