Northwestern Medicine scientists have uncovered how a major Parkinson's disease gene disrupts the brain's most vulnerable dopamine-producing neurons before detectable neuronal loss. The study offers new clues for developing treatments that target the disease in its earliest stage

The need for more effective lung cancer treatments is paramount, as the disease remains a leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. New findings by a research team from the Stony Brook Cancer Center highlight a novel therapeutic shown to be highly effective in reducing

A prescription form of THC helped many people with PTSD escape recurring trauma-related nightmares, with more than one-third reporting that the nightmares disappeared completely after ten weeks. The results could point toward a long-awaited treatment for one of PTSD’s most distre

Psychedelic drugs are best known for altering perception and producing vivid hallucinations, but scientists are increasingly interested in what else they might do. A growing body of research suggests that these mind-altering substances could hold real promise as treatments for me

Mayo Clinic researchers have developed an experimental drug with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) to target the "undruggable" PDZ domain of the GIPC1 protein, which helps different types of cancer, including pancreatic cancer, grow and resist treatment. In laboratory stud

The encouraging results of the world's first trial of a fridge-free tetanus-diphtheria vaccine could improve access worldwide to crucial treatments while reducing carbon emissions. Fridge-free vaccines have the potential to transform vaccine delivery by reducing dependence on ref

A protein that can dial down oxidative stress in cells helps some cancers resist treatment with a widely used class of drugs called BTK inhibitors, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine. The discovery points to a possible solution to the problem of B

Pregnant women in Australia are facing an unfair two-tiered system for managing morning sickness, with financial status affecting who can access the full range of modern anti-nausea medications available rather than simply clinical need.
