Tiny Fossil Overlooked for Decades Reveals a New Ice Age Species

A tiny fossil overlooked for decades at La Brea Tar Pits has turned out to belong to a species previously unknown to science. Researchers have identified Spea labreae, a previously unknown extinct spadefoot toad from La Brea Tar Pits and the first new species of extinct amphibian discovered from Ice Age Los Angeles. Only one […]

Ancient Neanderthal DNA May Give Some People More Muscle

A Neanderthal-derived growth hormone receptor still carried by some people today appears to amplify growth-related signals in cells. Some people alive today still carry a version of the growth hormone receptor inherited from Neanderthals, and its effects can be measured in their bodies. Neanderthals were typically more powerfully built than most modern humans, with skeletal […]

These Overlooked Immune Cells Supercharge the Fight Against Cancer

Researchers found that a little-known group of immune cells is crucial for keeping cancer-fighting T cells active during immunotherapy. A small and difficult-to-study population of immune cells may play a much larger role in fighting cancer than previously understood. Researchers at the University of Manchester’s Cancer Research UK Manchester Institute found that activated dendritic cells […]

New Drug Candidate Helps Overcome Cancer Treatment Resistance

An experimental drug called CS18 weakened several cancer survival mechanisms and helped overcome treatment resistance in laboratory and animal studies. Cancer treatments can work at first, only for surviving tumor cells to find another route around the attack. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have developed an experimental drug called CS18 that is designed to […]
