Why do some tumors spread while others remain localized? The mechanisms governing the metastatic potential of tumor cells remain largely unknown—yet understanding this is crucial for optimizing patient care.
Researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed “fast-RSOM,” a new imaging technology that can capture detailed images of the smallest blood vessels directly through the skin—without the need for invasive procedures.
The Xpert GI Panel identifies pathogens directly from stool specimens collected in Cary-Blair transport media.
A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most powerful genetic “on switches” in cancer cells, called super-enhancers, drive unusually intense gene activity. That high gear creates stress on the DNA and can cause dangerous breaks.
A multidisciplinary team has developed a selective compound that inhibits an enzyme tied to inflammation in people at genetic risk for Alzheimer’s, while preserving normal brain function and crossing the blood-brain barrier.
A team of Canadian scientists has uncovered a new way to slow the growth of glioblastoma, the most aggressive and currently incurable form of brain cancer—and identified an existing medication that could treat it.
Researchers have identified a metabolically sensitive cell subtype in the eye’s drainage system which shows early signs of dysfunction in a genetic mouse model of glaucoma.
LOS GATOS, Calif., Jan. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In the pivotal clinical trial of their technology, researchers at Orlucent®, Inc. have confirmed the accuracy of the company’s Skin Fluorescent Imaging (SFI) System, a non-invasive, hand-held molecular imaging device for the direct, on-the-skin, point-of-care assessment of suspicious moles and early detection of melanoma-related activity.
