Medical Xpress / Why this CAR T advance matters: Complete remissions without chemotherapy at doses as low as 250,000 cells/kg
Stem-cell memory T (TSCM) cells are a rare subset of immune cells with the ability to self-renew, persist long term, and mount potent anti-tumor responses. These properties make them an attractive candidate for next-generation ...
Medical Xpress / Why some aplastic anemia patients recover: Protective blood stem cell clones may restore marrow
Aplastic anemia is a rare, life-threatening blood disorder where patients are unable to make enough blood cells due to the immune system's attack on blood stem cells. The condition can progress to myelodysplastic syndrome ...
Tech Xplore / End of black box AI? Scientists develop blueprint for transparent system that reveals how it learns and makes decisions
Artificial intelligence that cannot explain how it makes decisions—often called "black box" AI—could soon be replaced by more transparent systems, research suggests. A study by Loughborough University, published in Physica ...
Phys.org / A new interface to study RNA biology
Scientists at Université de Montréal's Institute for Research in Immunology and Cancer have developed a new database that integrates the molecular structure of microRNAs and messenger RNAs to systematically model their interactions. ...
Phys.org / Pet cats that roam outdoors can carry similar disease risk as feral cats
A new study led by University of British Columbia researchers has found that pet cats allowed to roam outside unsupervised carry infectious diseases at rates comparable to feral cats, even when they receive veterinary care, ...
Phys.org / CRISPR speed patterns can identify multiple viruses and variants simultaneously
As the spread of infectious diseases accelerates, technologies that can accurately distinguish multiple viruses in a single test are becoming increasingly important. KAIST and an international research team have developed ...
Tech Xplore / Motion-enhanced sensor captures ultra-high-resolution images, overcoming a pixel miniaturization bottleneck
Digital image sensors (DIS), devices that capture images by converting light patterns into electrical signals, are integrated in many contemporary electronic devices, including smartphones, digital cameras and some medical ...
Tech Xplore / Why pedestrian deaths keep rising: AI spots rare crash patterns where targeted fixes could save lives
On average, car crashes cause more than 40,000 deaths per year in the United States. Technologies like seat belts, advanced airbags, and automated braking systems have improved car driver and passenger safety, but pedestrian ...
Phys.org / RNA-built droplets create customizable organelles inside living cells
Just as the human body relies on organs such as the heart or liver for essential functions, cells depend on their own tiny organs, or organelles, to carry out vital tasks, including transporting nutrients, removing waste, ...
Phys.org / Tiny fossil shells hold two chemical signals that could skew past ocean temperatures
Tiny plankton shells used to reconstruct past polar ocean temperatures may contain two different chemical stories, a new study by iC3 researchers has found. The work shows that Neogloboquadrina pachyderma, a key species in ...
Medical Xpress / Microchip nanoparticle test spots pancreatic cancer in blood, outperforming biopsy in early trial
Scientists at Oregon Health & Science University have developed a new technique using an electronic jolt and nanoparticles to reveal the telltale signal of an insidious form of cancer.
Phys.org / The most common planets in the galaxy don't appear around the most common stars, TESS observations suggest
Astronomers now estimate there is at least one planet for every star in our galaxy. These worlds, called exoplanets, are planets that orbit stars outside our solar system. But new research from McMaster University reveals ...
