Groundbreaking discoveries and inventions in the Life Sciences advancing Evidence Based Medicine
A protein that plays an important role in turning normal tissue into cancer has been identified, which could be targeted with drugs in novel treatments for highly aggressive cancers affecting…
Progressive cognitive decline and memory loss are common as people age, which is why it is important to keep the brain active and take steps to boost brain function. Boosting…
Studies have shown the gut microbiome plays an incredibly important role in the health of an individual, having an influence on appetite, energy metabolism, and immune and endocrine functions. The…
While COVID-19 vaccines have been deemed safe, one rare side effect is a blood clotting reaction called vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT). VITT involves a drop in the platelet count,…
In the United States, around 400,000 silicone breast implant procedures are performed every year. While the procedure and the implants are considered safe, some patients have an immune response and…
Cancer treatments often fail because cancer cells develop resistance to chemotherapy drugs and the invasive characteristics of cancer tumor cells increase in response to chemotherapeutic processes. Currently, treatments to suppress…
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (IPSCs) have the ability to turn into any cell in the body; however, IPSCs are very sensitive, and they can be difficult to grow in culture….
UCLA researchers have shown that a one-time stem cell therapy treatment can help to repair the brain damage caused by stroke and dementia in mice. According to the World Health…
Researchers at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine have identified an enzyme that prevents cancer by enabling the breakdown of proteins that drive cell growth. The discovery came when investigating…
Two microRNA molecules have been identified that play an important role in the maintenance of populations of cancerous stem cells that drive breast cancer growth and lead to relapse after…
