Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a rare type of breast cancer, making up less than 3. 5% of breast cancer cases. Unlike most breast cancers, it often has a better outlook, even though it falls under triple-negative breast cancer. The first step in managing this cancer is usually breast-conserving surgery
Imagine you're scaling up a cultivated meat business. You'll need a game plan to keep your products safe and tasty. Here’s how science-backed risk management can help.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be quite tricky, with various processes happening behind the scenes in our brains. One of these is ferroptosis, a type of cell death involving iron and oxidative stress. As we age, our body's antioxidant systems may not work as well, leading to more ferroptosis. This can
You might not think much about how lazy you are, but it turns out that inactivity is a big deal. It's linked to all sorts of health problems like heart disease and early death. Even though doctors know that exercise and a good diet can help, they often don't check if their patients are active or not
Obesity isn't just about extra pounds; it also changes how the body's immune system works in fatty tissues. Scientists wanted to know how different types and intensities of exercise could help fix this problem in obese mice. They fed male mice a high-fat diet to make them obese, then split them into
Scientists have been digging into how lung adenocarcinoma, a type of lung cancer, handles amino acids. They discovered that different lung cancer cells behave differently when it comes to amino acid metabolism. By looking at public databases, they found 163 genes that act differently in lung adenoca
Early signs of Alzheimer's often include anxiety and depression. Scientists found that a protein called SIRT1 in the hippocampus, a brain region crucial for learning and memory, plays a role in these symptoms. Research shows that exercise can boost mental health in various conditions, like stress an
As women age, their bodies change, often leading to more body fat. This extra fat can cause inflammation in the blood vessels, which raises the risk of heart diseases. Doctors recommend regular exercise to help keep these problems in check. Among these exercises, water-based ones are particularly go
Exercise is great for the body, especially the liver. It cuts down on stress that oxidizes (takes away oxygen from) cells. Scientists think a protein called irisin might be behind this benefit. In a study, mice got irisin injections or did endurance exercises for 8 weeks. Researchers looked at how t
Immunotherapy has been making waves in the treatment of esophageal cancer, especially when used after initial chemoradiation. But what about patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who've had a different combo—immunochemotherapy before surgery? Does adjuvant immunotherapy (AIT) still matter
