Investigators at Weill Cornell Medical College have identified propionate metabolism as a contributor to the ability of cancer cells to establish metastases, establishing new basic insights into cancer metastases as well as potential therapeutic targets.
Researchers in China have discovered that bacteria promote cancer metastasis by bolstering the strength of host cells against mechanical stress in the bloodstream, promoting cell survival during tumor progression.
Investigators at Boston Children's Hospital have demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 infection of blood monocytes and lung macrophages in the lung could kill the cells via pyroptosis, increasing inflammation and leading to severe COVID-19.
Neuro-Bio Ltd. has published animal data it says confirms its hypothesis about an underlying cause of Alzheimer's and showing its lead molecule NBP-14 decreases levels of brain amyloid and restores memory in a mouse model of the disease.

There is a project management joke that the first 90% of a project takes 90% of the time, whereas the last 10% of the project takes the other 90% of the time.
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor rapamycin extended the lifespan of female but not male flies, through sex-specific effects on the enterocytes that line the gut.
A team of scientists led by Liang Ge from Tsinghua University have identified a chaperonin subunit CCT2 as a new type of aggrephagy receptor which specifically accelerates the autophagic clearance of solid aggregates independent of ubiquitination, providing a promising therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases.
