- How ‘undead’ cells trigger cancer-promoting inflammationon August 20, 2026 at 8:20 pm
Stopping tumor growth is only half the battle. Rather than killing tumor cells, many cancer therapies can only push them into cellular senescence, a state in which cells stop dividing but do not die. These “undead” cells continue to release signals that reshape the tumor environment. Some of these signals help the immune system clear damaged cells. But others fuel chronic inflammation that can encourage tumor growth.
- No gold standard needed: Method ranks the precision of medical imaging measurementson August 20, 2026 at 8:20 pm
Advances in medical imaging and artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionized many aspects of medical practice in recent years. Quantitative measurements derived from medical images are increasingly being used to support diagnosis and clinical decision-making. Consequently, many new quantitative imaging tools, including those based on AI, are being developed.
- Chemotherapy-free treatment shows promise for some patients with metastatic breast canceron August 20, 2026 at 8:00 pm
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai found that a chemotherapy-free combination of four targeted therapies showed encouraging results in patients with HR-positive, HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, offering a potential first-line treatment option that may be more convenient for some patients and avoids chemotherapy.
- Air pollution induces changes in the oral mucosa and may worsen periodontal diseaseon August 20, 2026 at 8:00 pm
Air pollution can affect oral health. A study conducted in Brazil by researchers from São Paulo State University (UNESP) and the University of São Paulo (USP) demonstrated for the first time that exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5), a major component of urban air pollution, causes changes in oral tissues and accelerates the destruction of periodontal tissues that support teeth.
- Novel stem cell platform improves study of endometriosison August 20, 2026 at 7:40 pm
Scientists led by Julie Kim, Ph.D., the Susy Y. Hung Research Professor of obstetrics and gynecology in the Division of Reproductive Science in Medicine, have developed a novel stem cell platform that provides a new way to study the biology of endometriosis in humans more accurately than current model systems.
