New insights on protein degraders open doors to treatment for 'undruggable' diseases

Researchers at the University of Dundee have revealed in the greatest detail yet the workings of molecules called 'protein degraders' which can be deployed to combat what have previously been regarded as 'undruggable' diseases, including cancers and neurodegenerative diseases.

New computational pipeline revolutionizes personalized cancer vaccine design

Ludwig Cancer Research scientists have developed a full, start-to-finish computational pipeline that integrates multiple molecular and genetic analyses of tumors and the specific molecular targets of T cells and harnesses artificial intelligence algorithms to use its output to design personalized cancer vaccines for patients.

University of Michigan receives grant to study pain management in opioid use disorder

The University of Michigan will use a new $3.6 million federal grant to study how pain and opioids after surgery impact people with opioid use disorder, how guidelines might be adjusted to address post-surgical pain and how to prevent opioid-related harms.

Early signs of inflammatory bowel disease detected in newborns

Across the Western world, the prevalence of these chronic and serious conditions, which have no cure, is rising. In Denmark alone, 50,000 people suffer from either Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, which represents a doubling in cases over the past 20 years.

Multidisciplinary approach improves quality of life in functional movement disorders

The research team of the Neurology Department Movement Disorders Unit at the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital and the Movement Disorders group of the Institute of Biomedicine of Seville - IBiS, in collaboration with researchers from the Mental Health Clinical Management Unit and the Translational Psychiatry group coordinated by Benedicto Crespo Facorro (HUVR-IBiS/CIBERSAM), has published a randomized clinical trial demonstrating for the first time that a multidisciplinary approach integrating specific physiotherapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy is effective in improving the symptoms and physical aspects of the quality of life of patients with functional movement disorders.

Umeå University discovers critical mechanisms in stem cell differentiation

A study led by Umeå University, Sweden, presents new discoveries about how stem cells develop and transition into specialised cells. The discovery can provide increased understanding of how cells divide and grow uncontrollably so that cancer develops.

Researchers develop innovative mouse model for studying cancer immunotherapy

Immunity plays a central role in the fight against cancer. Many of the current immunotherapies aim at helping the patient's immune system to better recognize cancer cells - by using engineered antibodies - or by simply providing it with new cells, pre-equipped to search and destroy cancer.

Innovative tissue expansion technique transforms conventional microscopy capabilities

A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a way to expand tissue before imaging it -; a technique that allows them to achieve nanoscale resolution with a conventional light microscope.

Harnessing neural networks to forecast treatment outcomes in small cell lung cancer

As immunotherapy makes breakthrough progress in the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), predicting treatment outcomes has become a focal point in clinical practice. Immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has been approved as first-line therapy for small cell lung cancer due to its survival benefit in randomized controlled trials.

Innovative approaches to lymphatic pain relief in breast cancer patients

Among the 7.8 million women with breast cancer worldwide, at least 33% to 44% are affected by lymphatic pain. Breast cancer survivors usually suffer lymphatic pain in the ipsilateral body or upper limb, and pharmacological approaches are not effective for lymphatic pain.
