Medical Xpress / T cells ditch exhaustion marker to escape tumors and protect against cancer relapse
As the immune system battles cancer, chronic stimulation gradually drives T cells to a state of exhaustion. But some of these exhausted T cells can lose expression of the exhaustion marker LAG3, move out of the tumor and ...
Tech Xplore / How attackers persuade AI agents to break the rules
Today, most of us interact with AI assistants—reactive bots that wait for human instructions. Yet AI assistants are rapidly being replaced by agentic AI agents that can interact with external tools, browse the web, generate ...
Phys.org / Greenwashing firms are scrutinized less if they are in politicians' pockets, study finds
Companies with strong political connections are more likely to escape scrutiny over greenwashing, according to new research from Durham University Business School. Greenwashing occurs when organizations overstate or misrepresent ...
Medical Xpress / Ambient light activates wearable patch for wound treatment
A research team has developed a wearable patch that simultaneously promotes wound closure and tissue regeneration using room light or sunlight, without batteries or an external electrical power source. The work has been published ...
Medical Xpress / International study marks step forward in genetic understanding of eating disorders
New research led by the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN) at King's College London, in collaboration with an international partnership of researchers, has, for the first time, compared the genetics ...
Phys.org / Jellyfish reveal how rapid cell turnover may suppress early cancer growth
Although increased cell proliferation is a hallmark of cancerous tissues, in some cases it may actually protect against tumor growth, according to a new study by Caltech researchers. Using mathematical models, the work suggests ...
Tech Xplore / 'Oxygen tunnel' structure could solve 3D memory reliability problem to boost AI chip performance
As AI systems become more advanced, memory is required to transfer larger amounts of data at higher speeds. But conventional planar semiconductor scaling is running out of room. A KAIST research team has now addressed a key ...
Phys.org / Molecular memory: How a mother's age echoes in her offspring's cells
In humans and many other animals, a mother's age can affect the physical and behavioral characteristics of the next generation. Scientists call these changes maternal age effects, and while they are widespread across the ...
Phys.org / Racing to build a radio telescope on the moon
Remember the "Wow!" signal? That high-energy radio signature occurred in 1977, when Earth was much "quieter" in the radio band. If it happened today, it probably wouldn't even move the needle on the background noise of human ...
Phys.org / Foldamer–protein pair unlocks precise building blocks for artificial molecular materials
Proteins form complex three-dimensional shapes and can join together to create larger structures. Researchers want to use these properties to make artificial materials. However, arranging proteins and synthetic molecules ...
Medical Xpress / Does your immune system learn like AI?
Could AI hold the key to answering questions that have stumped doctors and scientists for decades? A recent study at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) borrows concepts from machine learning to address an age-old riddle ...
Medical Xpress / Experimental pill targets nerve pain pathway, cutting opioid use after abdominal surgery
Opioids can be highly effective at relieving moderate to severe pain, whether it comes from surgery, an injury or conditions such as cancer. They work by activating opioid receptors in the brain and body, which block pain ...
