|  | | | | How an anti-inflammatory diet lowers chronic disease risk An anti-inflammatory diet can counteract chronic low-grade inflammation by modulating immune responses, gut health, and key metabolic pathways. Scientific evidence supports its role in preventing cardiovascular, metabolic, neurodegenerative, autoimmune, and even oncologic diseases. | |  | | | | Short peptides show promise in blocking breast cancer metastasis A surgeon can excise breast cancer from the body, but even the most skilled scalpel may not be able to remove every cell - especially when the cells have spread from the original disease site elsewhere in the body. | |  | | | | BRCA mutations sharply increase risk of implant-associated lymphoma Women with breast cancer who were also carriers of the BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation and received textured breast implants as part of their reconstructive surgery after mastectomy were 16 times more likely to develop breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), a rare T-cell lymphoma, compared with similar women without these genetic mutations, according to a study published today in Blood Advances. | |

|  | | A study conducted at the Botucatu School of Medicine at São Paulo State University (FMB-UNESP) in Brazil has shown that low-dose vitamin D supplementation can increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy treatment in women with breast cancer. | | | | Scientists at Northwestern University have developed the largest open-access resource of its kind to help researchers shave off months of early-stage drug development time by allowing them to better understand diseases and find potential treatments. | | | | Researchers at the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Cancer Biology have uncovered how a unique interaction between two cellular compartments, namely the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, can act as a central ignition point for ferroptosis, a form of cell death driven by lipid oxidation and iron. | | | | Fibronectin fibers lose tension in invasive breast cancer, unlike in healthy or DCIS tissues, suggesting a mechanical marker for tumor progression. | | | | In cancer care, accurate tools for predicting whether a tumor will spread (metastasize) can help patients receive the most appropriate treatments. | | | | Scientists with the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC have created an engineered model of the supportive tissue found within a lymph node to study human health. | | | | Lead author Claire Morton, MD, and senior author Christina Ahn Minami, MD, MS, both of the Department of Surgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital, published a paper in Current Breast Cancer Reports "Survivorship Issues in Older Adults with Breast Cancer. | | | | Liver transplant is a lifesaving surgery, but a significant number of patients experience organ rejection or other complications. | |
