Large multiple sclerosis brain cohort reveals biological differences linked to disease sev

Why does multiple sclerosis progress quickly in some people, while others remain stable for years? Researchers from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience have identified biological patterns in the brain that may help explain these differences. Their study shows that these pa

Rare aging disorder links 'biological clock' to disease

Scientists have discovered a rare genetic condition that causes people to age at a much faster rate, offering fresh insights into the aging process. The study shows for the first time how a "biological clock" present in every cell of the body could contribute to age-related disea

Blood biomarkers could measure response to psychotherapy in patients with depression

Research by the Barcelona Institute for Biomedical Research (IIBB), part of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), and the Institut de Recerca Sant Pau (IR Sant Pau) provides some of the first evidence that psychological therapies act as biological stimuli that induce mole

Higher vitamin A levels linked to better lung function in children and adults with asthma

Higher levels of circulating vitamin A are linked to better lung function in children and adults with asthma, while vitamin D shows similar benefits in adults, including slower biological aging, finds the first study of its kind, published online in the respiratory journal Thorax

BCG vaccine may rewire brain immunity, shift Alzheimer's markers over 12 months

New research led by Mass General Brigham investigators suggests that the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine—which is delivered through the skin to prevent tuberculosis—may remodel the human brain's immune environment, offering a potential biological explanation for previously

New biological clues behind coffee's benefit to liver health

In one of the most comprehensive studies of coffee and liver health to date, Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators linked higher coffee consumption with a lower risk of cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver-related death. The findings, published in Clinical Gastroente

Cancer also knows how to wait: Study uncovers the hidden step between mutation and tumor b

The development of cancer is not a process triggered immediately by the emergence of an oncogenic mutation. There is growing evidence for the existence of an intermediate phase—hitherto poorly defined—in which mutated cells remain in a latent state, "accumulating the potential ne

Human red blood cells form without central 'hub' seen in mouse models, upending understand

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that one of the body's most fundamental biological processes—how red blood cells are made—works differently in humans than previously thought, according to a new study published in Nature Genetics. The findings overturn decades of

Invisible threads: How our environment quietly shapes disease

From the air we breathe to the food we eat, we are constantly exposed to thousands of chemicals—yet how these exposures affect our health has remained surprisingly difficult to understand. A new study led by researchers at the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Au

Biological aortic valves linked to better pregnancy outcomes, but more reoperations

In cases of serious aortic valve disease, choosing a new heart valve is particularly difficult for young women who wish to become pregnant. A new Swedish registry study from Karolinska Institutet shows that a biological aortic valve provides good pregnancy and birth outcomes, eve

New tumor map identifies high-risk B-cell lymphoma standard therapy may miss

Researchers led by Universitätsmedizin Frankfurt and Goethe University Frankfurt have identified how particularly aggressive forms of lymphoma can be recognized. By combining genetic and proteomic analyses, the scientists identified biological characteristics of tumors, particula

New adenomyosis atlas reveals lesion-specific signals that may spare healthy uterine tissu

Researchers at the University of Liverpool have identified distinctive biological characteristics within adenomyosis lesions that could help pave the way for more targeted, less invasive treatments. The findings from a team based in Professor Dharani Hapangama's gynecology resear
