A new nano-vaccine is showing promising results in treating skin cancer in mouse models. Developed by scientists at Tel Aviv University, the prospective vaccine encases two experimental new cancer drugs inside a tiny nanoparticle, with initia… Continue reading Scientists demonstrate a new nano-vaccine preventing the spread of melanoma
A new study suggests simple vibration therapy can beneficially alter the gut microbiome, and reduce diabetes-related inflammation. The research at this point has only been verified in mouse models, and prior human vibration therapy studies in… Continue reading Mouse study suggests vibration therapy can reduce inflammation and improve the microbiome
A team of scientists from Taiwan is suggesting not all exercise is equal when it comes to those with a genetic propensity for obesity trying to lose weight. The study concluded jogging was better for weight loss than either swimming or cyclin… Continue reading Scientists home in on six forms of exercise to best combat obesity genes
A new study from scientists at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis is suggesting a novel blood test can identify subjects at an early stage of Alzheimer’s disease, years before any symptoms appear. The blood test may even be more accurate than PET brain scans, and is hoped to accelerate screening of patients for participation in clinical trials.

Denver-based company Sträva Craft Coffee has revealed it has begun developing tea and coffee products infused with microdoses of psilocybin, the psychedelic compound found in magic mushrooms. Following the recent psilocybin decriminalization … Continue reading Psychedelic psilocybin microdoses in morning coffee proposed by Denver-based company
Cancer cells often deploy specific “don’t eat me” signals to hide from immune cells. A breakthrough new study from Stanford University has homed in on a previously undiscovered signaling protein that, if effectively inhibited, may lead to new treatments for breast, ovarian, and other difficult-to-treat cancers.

A new study is building on the growing association between the liver and Alzheimer’s disease. Suggesting a correlation between blood-based liver function biomarkers and several neurological signs of Alzheimer’s, the research hypothesizes the neurodegenerative disease has broader metabolic effects in organs other than the brain.

In one of the largest, and most detailed studies of its kind conducted to date, a team of researchers examined data from over 150,000 US war veterans and found eight specific genetic regions that seem to confer an increased risk of developing… Continue reading Large veteran study homes in on genetic risk factors for PTSD
An exciting new study, led by scientists from King’s College London, has discovered a new type of cell in the liver. The research describes the cell as having “stem cell-like properties,” with the potential to regenerate damaged liver cells a… Continue reading Discovery of liver cell with stem cell-like properties could eliminate need for organ transplants
