Cancer Immunotherapy Could Be Boosted by Targeting Pathways of DNA Repair

A newly published study shows that the fight against cancer could be boosted by considering approaches that seek to disrupt the mechanisms through which tumor cells respond to damage to their DNA. Targeting these pathways could make immunotherapy more effective for a lot more people. The study team led by Tang Z. focused on DDR (DNA Damage Response), a process at the cellular level in which cells undertake a variety of measures to fix any damage to their DNA. This repair process is intended to keep the tumor functioning and able to continue growing and spreading. By disrupting DDR, cancer…

Could Copying Lessons from Europe Help America Fix its Healthcare System?

The steep cost of healthcare in the U.S. has always been, and is becoming an even bigger political issue with each passing year. The issue was at the center of the recent shutdown of the federal government and the shutdown was only ended after a promise that the expiring healthcare subsidies would be voted on this month. Health insurance costs are soaring while citizens grapple with a high cost of living. According to a report published by the OECD last month, the per capita expenditure on healthcare in the U.S. far exceeds the per capita cost in other countries. Despite…

Study Uncovers Surprising Connection Between Choline, Obesity and Brain Inflammation

For a long time, the scientific community has known that anything that causes harm to the body usually also harms our brains. Conditions like insulin resistance, obesity and high blood pressure strain the body’s metabolic and vascular systems. With time, this stress accelerates cognitive decline and amplifies Alzheimer’s risk. Now, a new study conducted by a team at Arizona State University (ASU) together with collaborators elsewhere has shown that the harmful effects often start much earlier than had initially been thought. They observed that obese young adults exhibited a pattern of subtle changes suggesting early brain damage. These same patterns…

Common Drug for Blood Pressure Could Slow Glioblastoma

Researchers studying how a common drug, hydralazine, for blood pressure and preeclampsia works at the cellular level have identified the specific mechanism through which it works and their discovery has revealed that the medication that has been around for more than half a century could find new application as a way to slow down how aggressively glioblastoma grows. Despite how long this drug has been in use, it wasn’t clear how exactly it attained the effects it has upon blood pressure. This isn’t unique to hydralazine, as only 10-20% of all existing medications have known mechanisms of action. In a…
