Two new discoveries highlight the different roles of blood vessels in solid tumors – and the findings could help prevent breast cancer from spreading and enhance the effectiveness of one of the most important new cancer treatments in many years.

Researchers find a link between bipolar disease and potentially pathogenic mosaic mutations found in neurodevelopmental disorder genes and mitochondrial tRNA genes.

Researchers have for the first time characterized the molecular mechanism of the early stages of programmed cell death or apoptosis, a process which plays a crucial role in the prevention of cancer. 

Researchers have facilitated technology development for measuring the movement of electrons in nanostructures at high temporal and spatial resolution, in a manner that will be invaluable for optimizing nanostructure performance.

According to research, women 45 and older taking estrogen hormone therapy in pill form were more likely to develop high blood pressure than those using transdermal or vaginal formulations.

Researchers have found a key ‘on’ switch, called NLRP12, for innate immune cell death in diseases that cause red blood cells to rupture, which can lead to inflammation and multi-organ failure.

This study highlights the need for further study of best practices for management of hospitalized patients.

A retrospective study has compared the long-term survival rates for drug-resistant epilepsy treatments, revealing that cranial surgery reduced the risk of early death by over 80%.

A study about a class of materials called associative polymers appears to challenge a long-held understanding of how the materials, which have unique self-healing and flow properties, function at the molecular level.

Johns Hopkins Medicine team suggests that microparticle-delivered therapy maybe first step toward stopping MS and other autoimmune diseases.
