‘Our Crops Are Losing Their Nutrients’, New Report Warns

Many crops have lost as much as 50% of several key nutrients since the 1960s. Combined with the rise of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, continued projected declines could push around 5 million UK working-age adults below safe levels of essential vitamins and minerals, according to a report published by Deep Science Ventures (DSV).

Single-Cell Metabolic Profiling Identifies Key Bioenergetic Targets in Human Tumor Tissue

Immune cells can reach head and neck tumors, but once there, many stop functioning. This helps explain why immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors - which have transformed treatment for some cancers - benefit only 17%–23% of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. These are cancers that arise from cells lining the mouth, throat and voicebox.

Personalized Support Boosts Genetic Testing Uptake Among At-Risk Family Members

Among cancer patients who received personalized support and navigation services from experts throughout the genetic testing process, their first-degree relatives – parents, siblings and children – were significantly more likely to receive genetic testing, as well. Nearly half of those relatives carried a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, which are associated with a higher risk of cancer, according to a new study by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
