Scientists turn tumor immune cells into cancer killers

Tumors in the human body contain immune cells called macrophages that are naturally capable of attacking cancer. However, tumors suppress these cells, preventing them from carrying out their cancer-fighting role. Researchers at KAIST have now developed a new therapeutic strategy that bypasses this suppression by turning immune cells already inside…

These nanoparticles could destroy disease proteins behind dementia and cancer

A newly released perspective article in Nature Nanotechnology describes an innovative nanoparticle-based approach designed to remove harmful proteins from the body. This advance could dramatically expand the ability to treat so-called “undruggable” proteins, opening new possibilities for diseases such as dementia and brain cancer. The work was led by Chair…

The hidden reason cancer immunotherapy often fails

Cancer immunotherapy has reshaped cancer treatment by training the body’s immune system to recognize and attack tumors. Drugs known as immune checkpoint inhibitors, which target the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, have led to long-lasting responses in some patients and fueled optimism about durable cancer control. Yet for most people, these therapies do…

Brain cancer may begin years before doctors can see it

IDH-mutant glioma, driven by changes in a specific gene (IDH), is the most common malignant brain tumor affecting adults under 50. It is especially challenging to treat because it often returns after therapy. For years, treatment has focused mainly on removing the visible tumor seen on imaging. New research from…

The fat you can’t see could be shrinking your brain

How obesity affects the brain may depend on more than overall body weight. New research published on January 27 in Radiology, the flagship journal of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), suggests that the location of fat in the body plays a major role in brain health and cognitive…

Tea can improve your health and longevity, but how you drink it matters

A comprehensive review finds that tea, especially green tea, is strongly associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), obesity, diabetes, and several forms of cancer. Beyond these well known benefits, tea consumption is also linked to brain protection, reduced muscle loss in older adults, and anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial…
