Using a novel tool they developed called BLOCK-ID, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and Emory University have uncovered new details about how cancer cells repair their telomeres.

Researchers at CNIC have revealed the evolutionary principles behind the oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) system, which powers cellular energy production. This insight clarifies why certain genetic mutations in this system can lead to rare but severe mitochondrial diseases. The study also presents ConScore, a new tool designed to predict the clinical impact of mutations in the 103 proteins that make up the OxPhos system.

Survey data from the Netherlands show high interest and intention to use antibiotics to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs). A new approach to prevent bacterial sexually transmitted infections uses the antibiotic doxycycline for post exposure prophylaxis.

States that allow highly trained nurses to work independently see better health outcomes than those that require physician supervision, according to a new study.

Insilico team employed advanced molecular modeling techniques in combination with the company’s proprietary generative AI-based chemistry engine, Chemistry42, to efficiently design highly selective FGFR2/3 inhibitors featuring a novel core structure. This research, recently published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, provides an innovative approach for the discovery and development of next-generation cancer therapies targeting FGFR2/3.

A new way to grow stem cells may help them release more of the signaling proteins they use to repair tissue, potentially improving future treatments.

After receiving targeted treatment for concussion in which an individualized “profile” is created for patients, more than 83% of them reported still being fully recovered from their concussions, ranging from 1-6 years after the injury.
