This Medical News article discusses findings that genetic variants may affect patients’ responses to glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide and tirzepatide.

This Medical News article discusses a study linking digital media—particularly social media—use to consistent risks for children’s mental health and development.

This study examines maternal and obstetric risks of birth after uterus transplant and neonatal outcomes.

In this issue of Cancer Discovery, Nigri and colleagues identify myofibroblastic cancer-associated fibroblasts as drivers of sympathetic nerve recruitment and activation in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. By uncovering a feedforward stromal-sympathetic circuit, the study establishes neuroplasticit...

Roy and colleagues describe VVD-065, a covalent allosteric molecular glue that binds KEAP1 at Cys151 to enhance KEAP1-CUL3 assembly, restore NRF2 ubiquitination and degradation, and selectively suppress NRF2-driven tumors by reactivating endogenous E3 ligase function. See related article by Roy et a...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer therapy, and their unintended side effects relate largely to inducing autoimmunity; effects on vascular functions have only rarely been observed so far. In this issue of Cancer Discovery, a puzzling finding is reported that has divergent clinic...

New obesity medications have demonstrated efficacy in trials, but their real-world deployment is partly limited by the absence of approaches that identify individuals for treatment based on risks for obesity-related complications. Here we present a risk prediction model to guide prioritization of hi...

Conventional n-i-p architecture remains a robust platform for scalable perovskite photovoltaics 1,2 , yet its steady-state efficiency has stagnated at ~26% (ref.3), lagging behind p-i-n counterparts 4 . This performance gap arises from persistent non-radiative recombination at textured electron tran...

Several recent trials of new chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) therapies used results of measurable residual disease (MRD)-testing as a primary endpoint assuming it is an accurate surrogate for progression-free survival (PFS) which is, itself, a surrogate endpoint for survival. But whether MRD-test...

Myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) with TP53 multihit alterations are associated with dismal outcomes. MDS with isolated del(5q) present favorable prognosis but is defined by the absence of TP53 multihit alterations. However, whether TP53 multihit alterations exert the same adverse impact in this genet...

TRIMELVax is a cancer vaccine prototype derived from heat-conditioned melanoma cell lysates combined with a natural adjuvant. Preclinical studies demonstrated robust antitumor immune responses and tumor regression. We conducted a Phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogen...

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) testing in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) has demonstrated clinical significance in various contexts, including post-curative resection. Therefore, we developed a predictive model integrating preoperative ctDNA levels with radiographic imaging to assess the risk ...
