New “GPS nanoparticle” delivers a genetic punch to the protein implicated in tumor spread

A newly developed “GPS nanoparticle” injected intravenously can home in on cancer cells to deliver a genetic punch to the protein implicated in tumor growth and spread, according to researchers from Penn State. They tested their approach in human cell lines and in mice to effectively knock down a cancer-causing gene, reporting that the technique […]

CAR T cells target senescent cells, improve healthspan in mice

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have transformed the treatment of blood cancers in recent years. And there have been positive signs the “living drugs” can be harnessed against other diseases, like autoimmune disorders. Now laboratory research led by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory suggests these engineered immune cells hold promise for treating some diseases […]

New study recommends 2000 IU daily vitamin D supplementation

In a recent narrative review published in Nutrients, researchers discuss the evidence arguing for the efficiency and safety of 2000 international units (IU), i.e., 50 micrograms (µg) of vitamin D supplementation per day to prevent and treat vitamin D deficiency in the general adult population. Study: Vitamin D Supplementation: A Review of the Evidence Arguing for a Daily […]

Growing meat with built-in growth factors cuts costs

Cellular agriculture – the production of meat from cells grown in bioreactors rather than harvested from farm animals – is taking leaps in technology that are making it a more viable option for the food industry. One such leap has now been made at the Tufts University Center for Cellular Agriculture (TUCCA), led by David […]

HDAC inhibitors may offer new strategy for reversing fibrotic wall around pancreatic tumors

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers-;only about one in eight patients survives five years after diagnosis. Those dismal statistics are in part due to the thick, nearly impenetrable wall of fibrosis, or scar tissue, that surrounds most pancreatic tumors and makes it hard for drugs to access and destroy the cancer cells. Now, […]
