Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Construct Physical Barriers Limiting Antitumor T Cell Infiltration

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have identified a previously unknown pathway that prostate tumors leverage to suppress the immune system by reshaping the tumor microenvironment to resist treatment.

Marine Carbohydrate Therapeutics: From Structural Diversity to Clinical Translation

The ocean contains diverse carbohydrates that could serve as valuable resources for drug development. Algae, marine animals and microorganisms produce polysaccharides and related molecules with structures that are uncommon on land, including distinctive sulfate patterns, sugar linkages and branched architectures.

Study Uncovers Two-Protein Repair Mechanism Preserving Circular ecDNA Stability

Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) and their colleagues have discovered that a type of rogue DNA found in aggressive cancers has a hidden structural weakness - and that blocking a single repair protein can cause it to fall apart, suggesting a new therapeutic opportunity.

Latent HIV Viral Proteins Drive Persistent Low-Grade Brain Inflammation During ART

Antiretroviral drugs let people with HIV live full-length lives, but cognitive problems often persist. Some studies have found cognitive impairment in as many as half of people receiving antiretroviral therapy, although estimates vary and many cases do not interfere with daily activities.

Tumor Suppressor Pathways Remain Intact but Hyperactive During Progressive Tissue Aging

A new review was published in Volume 18 of Aging on August 31, 2026, titled "The guardian paradox: DNA damage response overactivation as an integrative driver of aging – a tumor suppressor–negative regulator framework."

Breakthrough Study Explains Developmental Origins of the Human Brain

For centuries, scientists have thought of the brain as a single, unified organ. But new research led by Stanford Medicine reveals that what we call the brain is two distinct organs that evolved independently over hundreds of millions of years.

Novel Base-Editing Approach Shows Promise for Inherited Motor Neuron Disorders

A team of researchers led by Professor Haruhisa Inoue (Center for iPS Cell Research and Application, Kyoto University) and Professor Yuishin Izumi (Tokushima University) demonstrated that adenine base editing can correct a disease-causing genetic mutation and alleviate neurodegeneration in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSN-P), providing proof of concept for a precision gene therapy for inherited motor neuron diseases.
