UC San Francisco scientists have discovered a new way to control the immune system’s ‘natural killer’ (NK) cells, a finding with implications for novel cell therapies and tissue implants that can evade immune rejection. The findings could also be used to enhance the ability of cancer immunotherapies to detect and destroy lurking tumors. The study, […]
In animal models of a totally crushed peripheral nerve, the damaged axons are broken down, allowing healthy ones to regrow. But humans rarely suffer complete axonal damage. Instead, axons tend to be partially damaged, causing neuropathic pain—a difficult-to-treat, chronic pain associated with nerve trauma, chemotherapy and diabetes. A new study in Cell, led by Michael […]
Now they’ve found it in dog food! Scientists discover traces of controversial weed killer glyphosate linked to cancer in popular pet food 18 different types of pet food were found to have low levels of glyphosate One product tested even stated on the bag that it was certified GMO-free Glyphosate is the active ingredient in […]
A type of ‘supercharged’ immune cell could be mass-produced to help fight cancer. The researchers behind the early-stage finding, from Imperial College London, say the development could mark the next generation of cutting-edge immunotherapy treatments, called CAR-T therapies. These personalised treatments involve reprogramming immune cells to kill cancer. NHS England announced on Friday it would […]
Flu jab given to millions offered NO protection against the killer ‘Aussie’ strain, admit public health officials Public Health England said the jab had ‘no effectiveness’ against H3N2 Unprecedented pressure on the NHS was blamed on the potent strain The new PHE data suggests the vaccines may have been partly to blame e-mail View comments […]
