 | | | Scientists map how cinnamon’s bioactives interact with cancer signaling This review synthesizes preclinical evidence showing that cinnamon-derived compounds can modulate inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and angiogenesis through multiple cancer-related signaling pathways. While biologically plausible, the findings are largely limited to cell and animal models, underscoring the need for pharmacokinetic, safety, and clinical validation. | | | | | New insights explain the Treg paradox in colorectal cancer In most solid tumors, high numbers of regulatory T (Treg) cells are associated with poorer outcomes because they dampen the immune system's ability to fight against a tumor. | |

| |  | | | Pain perception in affected individuals is more strongly influenced by learned fear than in healthy individuals. Changes along the gut-brain axis related to chronic inflammation may explain this. | | | | | Recent research has identified practical ways to protect and deliver oxygen-sensitive gut bacteria for a path toward safer, standardized microbial therapies that could reduce reliance on donor-based faecal microbiota transplants. | | | | | This review dispels common myths about white and wholegrain bread by examining their composition processing and health effects. It concludes that while wholegrain breads offer added benefits white bread remains a safe affordable and nutritionally meaningful staple when fortified. | | | | | This narrative review synthesizes evidence showing that higher intake of ultra-processed foods is consistently associated with increased Crohn’s disease risk, with mechanistic pathways implicating emulsifiers, carrageenan, maltodextrin, titanium dioxide, sweeteners and salt. It also highlights that minimally processed dietary strategies, including EEN and CDED, show therapeutic promise, particularly in pediatric Crohn’s disease. | | | | | A revolutionary quantum sensing project that could transform cancer treatment by tracking how immune cells interact with tumors has been awarded a prestigious £2 million Future Leaders Fellowship. | | | | | Increasing colorectal cancer screening rates among communities with the greatest need is the goal of a five-year, $4.2 million grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to Penn State College of Medicine. | |
