New fundamental research could help combat treatment-resistant leukemia and prevent relapses in children and adolescents. A group of scientists studied a certain type of leukemia and identified individual stem cell-like cells responsible for relapses in kids. They have also precisely characterized the molecular properties of these cells.
More than 55 million people worldwide live with Alzheimer's and related dementias (ADRD), placing a heavy burden on families and health care. Social isolation is a major—and preventable—risk factor, linked to faster cognitive decline and even early death. ADRD symptoms often worsen isolation, creating a harmful cycle. As isolation grows, especially among older adults, effective social interventions are urgently needed.
The Trump administration aims to bar U.S. veterans from receiving abortions at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals in cases of incest, rape or when the pregnancy puts their life at risk.
One in every three people is expected to have cancer in their lifetime, making it a major health concern for mankind. A crucial indicator of the outcome of cancer is its tumor microsatellite status—whether it is stable or unstable. It refers to how stable the DNA is in tumors with respect to the number of mutations within microsatellites.
Researchers from the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) have published a study in Scientific Reports that provides an analysis of three-dimensional (3D) culture techniques for generating multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) of colorectal cancer. The study, authored entirely by members of the Cancer Genetics and Epigenetics (CGE) group, lists Dr. Sergio Alonso and Dr. Beatriz González as corresponding authors.
As use of the popular anti-diabetic and weight-loss drug Ozempic skyrockets, so have concerns about the medication's side effects. One such side effect is loss of "lean mass"—body weight that isn't fat—raising concerns that Ozempic could be reducing muscle mass and strength.
A new study provides the first visual evidence showing that brain circuits in living animals can be activated by ultrasound waves projected into specific patterns (holograms).
It often starts with restless sleep. Mobility, swallowing, and speaking disorders are also typical. Yet a range of other symptoms make it difficult to diagnose anti-IgLON5 disease. Left untreated, this rare autoimmune disease leads to severe disabilities in just a few years and is often fatal.
You've probably heard that running is tough on your knees—and even that it can cause long-term damage. But is this true?
Every day, we're faced with constant opportunities for stimulation. With 24/7 access to news feeds, emails and social media, many of us find ourselves scrolling endlessly, chasing our next hit of dopamine. But these habits are fueling our stress—and our brains are begging for a break.
From collagen powders to immunity gummies, supplements are everywhere—in our Instagram feeds, on supermarket shelves and filling our bathroom cabinets. Promising better sleep, glowing skin, sharper focus or even a longer life, they're marketed as quick fixes for modern health woes.
The possibility of having a tool that facilitates population screening for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is getting closer. A multicenter study involving leading hospitals across Spain, led by Hospital del Mar and its research institute, has confirmed that people with COPD show altered levels of specific metabolites in their blood. This finding may make it possible to use these biomarkers to identify, at an early stage, those likely to have COPD.
Antonella Zanobetti was conducting groundbreaking research to examine links between exposure to environmental factors, such as pollution and heat, and deadly neurological and cardiovascular diseases. But three of her studies came to a halt with the Trump administration's mass cancelation of Harvard research grants in May.
A new preclinical study has found exposure to nanoplastics may contribute to the rapid progression of Alzheimer's disease and subsequent spread from the brain to other key organs such as the liver, heart and gut.
Fat. It seems we're always trying to avoid gaining it or avoid eating it. But, when it comes to dietary fats, some are actually good for our health—and some are essential. Alice H. Lichtenstein, senior scientist at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University and the Stanley N. Gershoff Professor of Nutrition Science and Policy at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, offers the skinny on dietary fats.
A randomized controlled trial evaluated the efficacy of a weight-loss diet added to exercise on the change in hip pain among adults with hip osteoarthritis. The study found that adding a weight-loss diet did not change hip pain severity; however, it did benefit secondary outcomes including physical function, body weight, and other measures of pain.
Have you ever noticed how animals instinctively choose the ripest fruits in a tree? This behavior, of seeking out the most rewarding option, offers a fascinating glimpse into the workings of the brain. Animals not only focus their attention on the most rewarding target (the location of the ripest fruit), but they also make a rapid decision to act on that information. Interestingly, the behavioral and neural mechanisms underlying this process are relatively underexplored.
The University of Bath, in partnership with the University of Edinburgh, has conducted the most extensive growth and maturation study in world soccer, helping reshape talent development pathways for young players in Scotland.
A brief research report characterized loneliness severity in two national samples of people with disabilities (PWD). The study found that severe loneliness was highly prevalent in all disability types, with PWD reporting persistent feelings of loneliness at greater rates than the general population.
