Small-molecule A485 mobilizes white blood cells on demand

White blood cells, or leukocytes, are the body’s first and second lines of defense against foreign organisms and particles. However, few drugs target these cells’ production and movement for clinically useful purposes. A new study published in the journal Immunity explores the signaling molecule landscape to identify potentially druggable targets for leukocyte migration into the […]

Biomimetic scaffolds offer hope for cranial defect repair

The cranial bone in the human body performs very important functions, such as protecting the brain and enabling the passage of the cranial nerves that are essential to physiological functioning. Critical-sized cranial defects can disrupt both the physical and psychological well-being of patients. Restoration of critical-sized cranial defects by cranioplasty is challenging for reconstructive surgeons, […]

New combination treatment offers hope for older patients with mantle cell lymphoma

The phase 2 trial PrE0405 met its primary endpoint, achieving a complete response (CR) rate of 85% in 33 patients over the age of 60 with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who received bendamustine and rituximab, a standard chemo-immunotherapy treatment, along with venetoclax, which is investigational in this setting. The combination was generally well-tolerated, a notable […]

Novel 3D-printed implant could revolutionize infection control in surgery

A novel surgical implant developed by Washington State University researchers was able to kill 87% of the bacteria that cause staph infections in laboratory tests, while remaining strong and compatible with surrounding tissue like current implants. The work, reported in the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, could someday lead to better infection control in many […]

Scientists identify progenitor cells that could revolutionize osteoarthritis treatment

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers report that osteoarthritis (OA) is caused by the loss of Gremlin 1 (Grem1)-lineage chondrogenic progenitor (CP) cells. Study: Loss of Grem1-lineage chondrogenic progenitor cells causes osteoarthritis. Image Credit: airdone / Shutterstock.com What is OA? OA affects all tissues in the joint, which subsequently leads to joint pain, […]

Certain gut microbes may be linked to skeletal health

There is growing evidence that a relative abundance of certain gut microbes may be related to skeletal health, according to a new study published in Frontiers in Endocrinology. If confirmed by additional research, the findings could provide the opportunity to alter gut microbiomes to achieve better bone health, as scientists learn more about “osteomicrobiology,” a […]

Study explores hypertension risk in adults on TAF vs. TDF

In a recent study published in JAMA Network Open, a group of researchers assessed the risk of hypertension and statin initiation in adults starting Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) compared to those taking emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), using data from Kaiser Permanente Southern California (KPSC). Study: Use of Tenofovir […]

Breakthrough trial may improve diagnosis and life outcomes for patients with high-risk myeloma

Findings from a new medical trial, recently published in a prestigious scientific journal, may significantly improve life outcomes for patients with high-risk myeloma. Myeloma affects bone marrow cells and is a relapsing and remitting cancer that has a significant physical and emotional burden on patients and their families. Despite significant advances in treatment and care […]
