Study compares GLP-1 drug benefits and finds substantial variation in clinical effects

GLP-1 receptor agonists improve glycaemic control and provide renal, metabolic, and selective cardiovascular benefits in people with type 2 diabetes, based on an umbrella review of 17 meta-analyses. However, these agents consistently increase gastrointestinal adverse effects and show important distinctions between class-level outcomes and individual drug effects, particularly for semaglutide.

Engineered CAR-T cells show promise against glioblastoma in preclinical models

With a five-year survival rate of less than 5%, glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive types of brain cancer.

Study uncovers promising therapeutic strategies against neuroendocrine prostate cancer

A new study has uncovered promising therapeutic strategies against one of the deadliest forms of prostate cancer.

20 Nov 2025

New type of mitochondrial DNA damage revealed

A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how our bodies sense and respond to stress.

Focused ultrasound can be safely used in children being treated for brain cancer

Columbia University researchers are the first to show that focused ultrasound - a non-invasive technique that uses sound waves to enhance the delivery of drugs into the brain - can be safely used in children being treated for brain cancer.

Even minimal cigarette use significantly increases heart disease and mortality risk

Smoking even 2-5 cigarettes a day can more than double your risk of any type of heart disease and raise your risk of death from any cause by 60% compared to people who never smoked, according to new research supported by the American Heart Association's Tobacco Center for Regulatory Science and published in PLOS Medicine.

Cryo-EM reveals how proteins are protected during synthesis

Proteins are often called the building blocks of cells, but even those building blocks need to be built. One of the most important steps in the process of building proteins is glycosylation, when sugar molecules (glycans) are attached to the maturing protein.
