Vitamin B2 and Tumor Bacteria May Unlock a New Way To Fight Lung Cancer

An unusual immune signature in lung cancer has led researchers toward a potential therapy involving tumor microbes and MAIT cells. Bacteria living inside lung tumors may be doing more than simply occupying the tumor environment. In preclinical research from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and its Bloomberg~Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, researchers found that […]

Most People Don’t Know This Popular Food Is Linked to Prostate Cancer Risk

Most men are unaware that a widely consumed part of the American diet has been linked to prostate cancer risk. A new national survey found that only 20% of men knew about the reported association between dairy consumption and prostate cancer. After learning about it, 66% said they would be likely to avoid dairy products. […]

Earth May Not Be a Cosmic Fluke, New Simulations Suggest

Solar system simulations starting from varied initial conditions suggest that Earth-like planets can emerge naturally from planet formation. Computer simulations of planetary systems can now begin from thousands of different starting conditions, allowing researchers to explore how worlds might emerge without assuming the final outcome. Over the past three decades, these models have advanced from […]

Lava-Covered Planets Are Defying a Key Rule of Planetary Science

Researchers developed a model showing how lava-covered planets close to their stars can hold onto their atmospheres, which could help guide the search for life beyond our solar system. Some planets orbit so close to their stars that intense radiation should strip away their atmospheres. Yet several of these scorching, lava-covered worlds still retain thick […]

Scientists Find a New Way To Stop Aggressive Breast Cancer From Spreading

Australian researchers have identified a promising new approach that could help stop one of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer from spreading. Triple-negative breast cancer becomes especially dangerous once tumor cells escape the breast and establish themselves elsewhere in the body. Australian researchers have now identified a molecular weakness that could eventually help determine […]

Scientists Discover Exercise Can Match One Key Benefit of Sleep for the Brain

One sleepless night can blur the brain, but just 20 minutes of exercise or a well-timed nap may help new memories survive for days. In a McGill University-led study, participants who exercised for 20 minutes or slept for 90 minutes after prolonged wakefulness performed about 22 percent better on a delayed memory test than those […]
