| | UCLA researchers have identified a promising strategy to make a new class of targeted cancer therapies more effective against one of the deadliest forms of prostate cancer, potentially overcoming treatment resistance that has limited their success. | |
|
| | Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Cancer Center have identified a previously unknown metabolic weakness in the stem cells that drive high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), a discovery that could lead to more targeted treatments for this aggressive blood cancer. | |
|
| | A new review explores how advances in understanding X chromosome inactivation (XCI) are creating potential therapeutic opportunities for a range of X-linked genetic disorders, including Rett syndrome, Fabry disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, hemophilia, and others. | |
|
| | Cancer cells have a voracious appetite for sugar-using it to fuel their rapid growth. This is why many scientists have tried to develop drugs that block cancer cells' metabolism by cutting off their sugar supply. | |
|
| | The brain's immune system has long been thought to exist independently from the rest of the body, complete with its own specialized immune cells and a blood-brain barrier that limits what can travel into the brain. | |
|
| | Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) remains a major global challenge. Current therapies suppress HBV but rarely achieve functional cure (sustained HBsAg loss). | |
|
| | A comprehensive new review article highlights the growing importance of the MYH9 gene as a central player in both cancer biology and inherited genetic conditions, offering fresh perspectives on its potential as a therapeutic target. | |
|
| | The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology today announced the activation of The QUANTUM Trial (Alliance A062401), a clinical study designed to test a novel, immune-targeting approach for patients newly diagnosed with primary plasma cell leukemia (PCL). | |
|
| | People with narrowing of the coronary arteries have low-grade, uncontrolled inflammation in the body, even if they are symptom-free and receiving optimal treatment. | |
|
| | LMU researchers have elucidated how different organs adapt the same clock machinery to regulate their individual needs over the course of a day. | |
