The team from Geneva, Switzerland shows that disruption of lipid temporal profiles in type 2 diabetes stiffens the membrane of pancreatic endocrine cells, which could alter their function. Like all living things, human physiological processes are affected by circadian rhythms. Disruption of our internal clocks due to increasingly unbalanced lifestyles is directly related to the …

Tumors have significant differences depending on the person affected, even if they are the same cancer, such as breast cancer. Therefore, precision oncology focuses on the specific genetic characteristics of the tumor and incorporates them into the treatment. In this way, existing therapies can be “tailored” to avoid side effects and save money on expensive …

The new string-like implant can monitor fluctuations in chemicals in the brain, as a fitness tracker for the brain. An imbalance in brain chemistry is the basis of many neurological diseases. These same brain chemicals also play a role in gut health. So Stanford researchers have invented the “NeuroString” – a soft implantable probe that …
