    New cells in connective tissue open up strategy against pancreatic cancer

    Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have discovered a previously unknown type of connective tissue cells that surround cancer cells in pancreatic tumors. The newly discovered cells counteract tumor development and may therefore be a target for research into new treatments for pancreatic cancer, which is one of the deadliest forms of cancer.

    “We are still a long way from treatment, but this may show a viable path for further research,” says Daniel Öhlund, associate professor at Umeå…

    By Palestine Chronicle Staff  

    On Tuesday evening, US aircraft reportedly carried out four airstrikes on the al-Salem district in Saada, northern Yemen.

    The Yemeni Armed Forces, affiliated with the Ansarallah movement, announced on Wednesday two military operations against “vital” Israeli targets, declaring the attack a success.

    “The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a qualitative…

    Bacteria killing material creates superbug busting paint

    A bacteria killing coating created by scientists has been used in trials of a new paint that can be applied to a range of surfaces to effectively kill bacteria and viruses, including difficult to kill species such as MRSA, flu and COVID-19.

    Scientists at the University of Nottingham’s School of Pharmacy have trialled a new paint-on resin product that incorporates bacteria killing chlorhexidine, which is often used by dentists to treat mouth infections and for pre-surgical cleaning.

    The team…

  • Parts of our DNA may evolve much faster than previously thought

    Parts of our DNA may evolve much faster than previously thought

    Knowing how human DNA changes over generations is essential to estimating genetic disease risks and understanding how we evolved. But some of the most changeable regions of our DNA have been off-limits to researchers — until now.

    A team of researchers from University of Utah Health, University of Washington, PacBio, and other institutions has used multiple DNA sequencing technologies to develop the most comprehensive atlas yet of genetic change through generations. The new investigation…

  • Statin use may improve survival in patients with some blood cancers

    Statin use may improve survival in patients with some blood cancers

    Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who were taking cholesterol-lowering statin medications at the start of their cancer treatment had a 61% lower risk of dying from their cancer compared to similar patients who were not taking statins, according to a study published today in the journal Blood Advances.

    “This is the first systematic evaluation of the association of statin use with survival outcomes in patients with CLL or SLL who have been…

  • Remembering the cold: Scientists discover how memories control metabolism

    Remembering the cold: Scientists discover how memories control metabolism

    New multidisciplinary research led by Prof. Tomás Ryan from Trinity College Dublin shows that the brain forms memories of cold experiences and uses them to control our metabolism. This newly published study is the first to show that cold memories form in the brain — and map out how they subsequently drive thermoregulation.

    The discovery may have important applications in therapies designed to treat a range of disorders — from obesity to cancer — in which thermoregulation and metabolism…

  • How DNA self-organizes in the early embryo

    How DNA self-organizes in the early embryo

    An international research team led by Helmholtz Munich has, for the first time, provided a detailed insight into how the spatial organization of genetic material is established in the cell nucleus of early embryos within the first hours after fertilization. Surprisingly, embryos demonstrate a high degree of flexibility in responding to disruptions in this process. The study, now published in Cell, reveals that no single master regulator controls this nuclear organization. Instead, multiple…

    The U.S. Allows Food Additives Banned In Europe — RFK Jr. Is Fixing It

    Many common foods in the U.S. contain food additives banned in Europe due to health concerns. From candy to bread and processed snacks, these additives — such as Red Dye No. 3, potassium bromate and titanium dioxide — today remain on grocery store shelves across America. But now, a growing movement led…
