A whole-genome sequencing approach shows early promise over current commercial methods for identifying more patients likely to benefit from PARP inhibitor cancer treatments, according to a study led by Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian investigators. […]
A new study by the National Cancer Research Center (CNIO) has identified several sets of genes related to the predisposition to develop pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (the most common type of pancreatic cancer), as well as […]
In a small mining town in South Africa’s Limpopo province, young people are showing worrying signs of diseases that were once thought to affect only older adults.This article was originally published on MedicalXpress.com
Older adults can dramatically reduce the amount of ultraprocessed foods they eat while keeping a familiar, balanced diet—and this shift leads to improvements across several key markers related to how the body regulates appetite and […]
Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 are a common cause of cancer, making the altered protein an attractive target for therapeutics. Among them, the Y220C mutation is the ninth most frequent and it creates a […]
Weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro work primarily by reducing hunger. They mimic a hormone the body already produces called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which helps regulate appetite and feelings of fullness.This article was […]
It is well known that obesity typically leads to inflammation and dysfunction of fat tissue that increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.This article was originally published on MedicalXpress.com
For 10% of colorectal cancer patients, hereditary factors play a role, with higher percentages among younger patients. Research from Radboud University Medical Center and University Hospital Bonn (UKB) in collaboration with researchers from Munich and […]
When people stop taking the new generation of weight-loss drugs they pile back on the kilos four times faster than they would after ending diet and exercise regimens, new research found Thursday.This article was originally […]
In its effort to correlate genomic structure with gene function, the 4D Nucleome Consortium (4DN), led by Job Dekker, Ph.D., at UMass Chan Medical School, has extensively mapped and analyzed the three-dimensional folding of the […]
