Scientists at KAIST have found a way to turn a tumor's own immune cells into powerful cancer fighters--right inside the body. Tumors are packed with macrophages, immune cells that should attack cancer but are usually silenced by the tumor environment ...

Researchers have developed smart nanoparticles that can seek out and destroy disease-causing proteins the body can't normally eliminate. Unlike traditional drugs, these particles can reach hard-to-access tissues, including the brain, and precisely .. ...

Cancer immunotherapy has been a game-changer, but many tumors still find ways to slip past the immune system. New research reveals a hidden trick: cancer cells can package the immune-blocking protein PD-L1 into tiny particles that circulate through . ...

A massive international study of more than 3,100 long COVID patients uncovered a striking divide in how brain-related symptoms are reported around the world. In the U.S., the vast majority of non-hospitalized patients described brain fog, depression, ...

Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Zepbound can drive impressive weight loss, but stopping them is often followed by rapid weight regain. Researchers found that people regain weight faster after quitting these drugs than after diet and exercise alone. ...

Scientists in South Korea have discovered that one of the most common malignant brain tumors in young adults may begin years before a tumor can be seen. IDH-mutant glioma, long treated by removing visible tumor tissue, actually starts when normal ...

Where your body stores fat may matter just as much as how much you carry--especially for your brain. Using advanced MRI scans and data from nearly 26,000 people, researchers identified two surprising fat patterns tied to faster brain aging, cognitive ...

Drinking tea, particularly green tea, is linked to better heart health, improved metabolism, and lower risks of chronic diseases like diabetes and cancer. It may also help protect the brain and preserve muscle strength as people age. However, ...

AI may learn better when it's allowed to talk to itself. Researchers showed that internal "mumbling," combined with short-term memory, helps AI adapt to new tasks, switch goals, and handle complex challenges more easily. This approach boosts learning ...

A repeating fast radio burst has just given up one of its biggest secrets. Long-term observations revealed a rare signal flare caused by plasma likely ejected from a nearby companion star. This shows the burst source isn't alone, but part of a binary ...
