For the first time, researchers discovered a potential drug candidate that improved outcomes for patients suffering from a type of childhood brain tumour that has no effective treatment. When compared to previous patients, the compound, called ONC201, nearly doubled survival for patients wit
According to a new Yale-led study where researchers created brain organoids from the stem cells of boys with the disorder, two distinct neurodevelopmental abnormalities that manifest just weeks after the beginning of brain development have been linked with the emergence of autism spectrum di
Mayo Clinic and Yale University scientists determined that the origins of autism spectrum disorder may be related to an imbalance of particular neurons that play a vital role in how the brain communicates and works using human "mini-brain" models known as organoids. The cells in question are
Glioblastoma, the most prevalent and lethal type of brain cancer, spreads quickly, invading and destroying healthy brain tissue. The tumour shoots malignant tendrils into the brain, making surgical removal of the tumour extremely difficult or impossible.
Boston [US]/Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], August 11: Zumutor Biologics Inc "Zumutor", a Boston based biopharmaceutical company focused on developing unique novel therapeutics in immuno-oncology (I-O) today announces that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted the company's In
Thanks to a new study led by scientists at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) and the Medical College of Georgia (MCG) at Augusta University, scientists can finally track down a dangerous type of human T cell.
Researchers have created an artificial intelligence (AI) system that can identify and classify white and red blood cells in microscopic images of blood samples. The algorithm is a free tool for research that can assist doctors in the diagnosis of blood disorders.
In preclinical studies, the transfer of a neurotransmitter from melanocytes to keratinocytes altered electrical activity and encouraged the onset of melanoma
According to a study, the transfer of a neurotransmitter from one type of skin cell to another (melanocytes to keratinocytes) changed electrical activity and enhanced melanoma start in preclinical animals.
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 9: EV battery explosions making the headlines these days and safety about the electric vehicles has become a major concern with EV Manufacturers and prospective buyers. This year, many EV fires were reported especially the major fire breakout burning 3 el
Tumour cells are known to be fickle sleepers, typically lying dormant in distant tissues for years before reactivating and producing metastasis. Numerous elements, ranging from cells and molecules to other components in the so-called tissue microenvironment, have been researched to determine
The LINAC provides targeted laser-guided beam Radiotherapy, which specifically targets the cancer cells only and does not destroy the surrounding healthy tissue. This 360 degrees rotatory Radiotherapy machine can be used for treatment of any type for cancer.
