Zizyphi spinosi semen demonstrates neuroprotective effects, improving cognitive function and reducing amyloid and tau pathology in models of aging and dementia.

The new virus treatment has been tested widely against the glioblastoma - the most common type of cancer that originates in the brain - but delivering it is challenging

Brits suffering from severe autoimmune conditions such as lupus could benefit from a 'groundbreaking' drug as a trial is now underway. It could cure those with the most serious form of the disease

Mitochondria have long been known as the tiny organelles that act as the battery packs inside our cells while also serving as internal sensors and communicators.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) ranks as one of the most common cancers globally, with over 650,000 new cases reported each year.

A new study led by University of Cincinnati Cancer Center researchers details how the accumulation of copper helps clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) -; the most common kidney cancer -; grow and advance in stage.

Xiaoguang Dong, assistant professor of mechanical engineering, is leading a team of researchers that has developed a system of artificial cilia capable of monitoring mucus conditions in human airways to better detect infection, airway obstruction, or the severity of diseases like Cystic Fibrosis (CF), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) and lung cancer.

A new study from the USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center has found evidence that targeting CD47, a protein that is part of the innate immune system, could be a key step in fighting colorectal cancer.

Lupus can range from mild to severe, and leads to patients needing to take drugs for life, with common symptoms including joint pain, skin problems, fatigue and inflammation.

Impaired blood circulation in the lower limbs is a common health problem among the elderly and one of the most prominent complications of diabetes, called diabetic foot.

Lumbar disc herniation is one of the most common structural changes in the lower back and the most common cause of radiating pain, or sciatica, in the leg.

There has been little progress in finding effective drugs to treat neurodegenerative diseases

In operable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), molecular residual disease (MRD) detection via circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a promising approach to identify individuals at high risk of disease recurrence and potentially guide adjuvant therapy decisions.

A novel discovery in the field of pancreatic cancer treatment has been unveiled, revealing the epigenetic silencing of BEND4 as a potential synthetic lethal marker for enhancing the efficacy of ATM inhibitors in pancreatic cancer treatment.

Mechanical engineers have developed a system of artificial cilia capable of monitoring mucus conditions in human airways to better detect infection, airway obstruction, or the severity of diseases like Cystic Fibrosis (CF), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) and lung cancer.

Researchers have identified a possible way to make glioblastoma cells vulnerable to different types of immunotherapy. The strategy, which they demonstrated in cells in the lab, forces brain cancer cells to display targets for the immune system to attack.

A study conducted at the Center for Research on Redox Processes in Biomedicine (Redoxoma) helps understand how high blood sugar (hyperglycemia), one of the manifestations of diabetes, can cause thrombosis.

The brain, traditionally considered an immune-privileged organ due to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), has its own sophisticated immune defense system.
