Researchers have identified a promising new strategy to treat autoimmune diseases by targeting a specific molecular interaction within immune cells. Scripps Research scientists have created a new group of drug compounds that reduce harmful inflammation without weakening the body’s ability to fight infections, a major challenge in treating autoimmune diseases. These compounds, known as ENDOtollins, […]
Saunas May Do More Than Raise Body Temperature – They Activate Your Immune System
A brief sauna session may quietly mobilize the immune system. A sauna session may do more than raise your heart rate and body temperature. A new study from Finland found that it also briefly increases the number of white blood cells moving through the bloodstream, a shift tied to the body’s frontline immune defenses. The […]
Exercise in a Pill? Metformin Shows Surprising Effects in Cancer Patients
Researchers have identified a surprising metabolic effect of a widely used diabetes drug in men undergoing prostate cancer treatment. A new study suggests that metformin, a commonly prescribed drug for diabetes, may reproduce a key biological effect of exercise in men with prostate cancer. Researchers found that the medication increases levels of a molecule linked […]
Saturn’s Magnetic Shield Isn’t What Scientists Expected
Saturn’s magnetic shield behaves in a way that defies Earth-based expectations. Scientists analyzing data from the Cassini-Huygens mission have identified an unexpected feature in Saturn’s magnetic shield. According to the team, the finding shows that giant planets follow a different set of rules than Earth when it comes to how their magnetospheres behave. The study, […]
