Medical Xpress / FAP-targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy shows broad effectiveness across multiple cancers
A novel radiopharmaceutical therapy approach that targets fibroblast activation protein (FAP)—which is highly expressed in many types of cancer—is safe and effective for patients, according to a new study published in the ...
Phys.org / Global surveys find carbon uptake in tropics overestimated
An international team of researchers has found plants in the tropics absorb much less carbon dioxide than previous modeling had suggested, which has implications for ecosystem management.
Phys.org / LiON: A fluorescent molecule tracks iron and oxygen levels in individual cells
A new fluorescent reporter capable of visualizing biologically active iron and oxygen inside living cells at single-cell resolution has been developed, as reported by researchers from Science Tokyo. Using this new tool, they ...
Phys.org / Intermolecular collisions may explain why organic radical fluids become unusually magnetic
Certain substances can become magnetic when exposed to an external magnetic field. Magnetic susceptibility measures how easily a material can be magnetized. Materials known as organic radicals have been noted to possess anomalously ...
Medical Xpress / Digital tool flags cancer patients at risk of serious immunotherapy bowel side effects
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a form of cancer immunotherapy successfully used to treat a wide range of cancers. However, these treatments can cause side effects including immune-related colitis, or inflammation of the ...
Medical Xpress / Emergency department study shows major gaps in flu vaccination
A University of California, Riverside-led study of more than 3,200 emergency department (ED) patients across the United States found that while awareness of influenza vaccination is widespread, most adults seen in EDs are ...
Phys.org / Revealing how and when a black hole's mighty winds can squash star formation
Thanks to the X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission, or XRISM, University of Michigan researchers are helping chip away at one of astronomy's cosmic mysteries: The universe's most massive galaxies appear to be missing stars.
Phys.org / Plant diversity may explain why some caterpillars are fussy about their food
Many insects will eat almost anything in their sight, such as certain beetles, grasshoppers and locusts, while others are remarkably picky eaters. For example, numerous insect herbivores will feed only on a single plant family ...
Phys.org / Random deformation lets glassy materials store precise mechanical memories, simulations reveal
Amorphous materials such as glass are solids whose internal structure lacks a repeating pattern. Their molecules are arranged in a random and irregular way. Surprisingly, these disordered materials can "remember" past mechanical ...
Tech Xplore / Engineered van der Waals crystal mimics neuronal cells with light-driven learning
A research team led by Professor Taesung Kim of the School of Mechanical Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) has developed an optoelectronic synaptic device that mimics the functions of human neurons and synapses ...
Phys.org / Data suggest 'red flag' laws are linked to sustained reductions in arrests
Individuals subject to extreme risk protection orders (ERPOs), or "red flag" laws, were significantly less likely to be arrested—including for violent and firearm-related offenses—while the orders were in effect than in the ...
Phys.org / Abstract algebra unlocks distinguishable states for quantum systems
Researchers around the world are racing to develop new quantum-based systems for sensing, communication, computing and control that have the promise of outperforming traditional systems. Creating stable, measurable, distinguishable ...
