Longer Reproductive Lifespan, Hormone Use Associated with Better Brain Health

A longer reproductive lifespan and a history of using birth control pills or menopausal hormone therapy were associated with certain signs of blood vessel health in the brain, according to a study published November 4, 2026, in Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.

Study: Maternal Autoantibodies Targeting IL-1RA Trigger Premature Labor

A typical pregnancy lasts 40 weeks, but for about 1 in 10 pregnant women labor begins too soon. Premature or preterm birth is the leading cause of newborn deaths worldwide. Yet doctors have struggled to understand why preterm birth occurs - or how to predict which pregnancies are at highest risk.

Placental Microenvironment Reprograms Innate Immune Cells to Prevent Inflammation

In addition to their established role in fighting pathogens, certain maternal immune cells (neutrophils) can support early placental development by supporting placental cells migrate into the uterine lining.

Engineered Biological Bandages Utilize Human Epicardial Cells for Heart Repair

Researchers have discovered a new cell type that may help regulate blood vessel growth in the heart during development and in response to injury, according to a study from Weill Cornell Medicine. Working with zebrafish, they found that the new cell type helps stabilize the vascular network that supplies oxygen to growing cardiac muscle.

Kupffer Cells Increase Apolipoprotein Secretion in Response to Indigestible Plastics

Microplastics appear capable of significantly impairing the function of phagocytes in the liver, at least in mice. In turn, this disrupts the metabolism of this vital organ and increases the build-up of fat inside it. These are the key findings from a joint German-Austrian study led by the University of Bonn, details of which have now been published in the journal "Nature Metabolism."

Single-Cell Sequencing Confirms Epigenetic Remodeling Across Diverse Cardiac Cell Types

The adult human heart is a reliable and resilient engine fueling our everyday lives while also being responsive enough to supercharge a Usain Bolt sprint or sustain a three-week bike race in the French Alps and Pyrenees.

Study Reveals Structural Roughness as Key Factor in Tumor Detachment Dynamics

In 2024, malignant tumors caused more than 21,300 deaths in Austria, 4.7% more than in 2014. Faced with a similarly pressing global challenge, scientists are striving to better understand what drives cancer cells to grow, spread, and invade healthy tissue.

Multi-Omic Integration Reveals Novel Gene-Disease Links in Undiagnosed Rare Conditions

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London, the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) and Genomics England have shown that measuring proteins in the blood can provide important additional clues about the effects of genetic variants, helping to identify diagnoses and potential new disease-causing genes that genome sequencing alone has been unable to resolve.
