This relentless mechanical work turns the heart into a tough environment for cancer cells. While cancer spreads easily to organs like the lungs or liver, i
Scientists used a modern DNA trick called eDNA metabarcoding to map fish life in Turkey’s rivers. Instead of catching every fish, they filtered water from 29 spots spread over seven big river basins. The DNA that sloshes through the water was amplified and read by a high‑throughput machine, producin
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal cancers in the United States, killing more than 50, 000 people each year. The disease is tough to treat and most patients die within a year of diagnosis, with only a small fraction surviving five years. Recently, two experimental drugs have entered clin

Researchers have uncovered fresh clues about how muscle cells react when exposed to radiation in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Unlike typical muscle loss seen in the disorder, these cells show an unusual sensitivity to radiation that may speed up damage. Boys with DMD, who make up almost all ca
