Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions are challenging the traditional understanding of how cancer drugs called histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors function.
Integrated care reduces hospital visits for adults with disabilities
University of Cincinnati and Ohio State University researchers have found that adults with developmental disabilities who have integrated care were less likely to go to the emergency room or be hospitalized than others who were not.
Three decades of progress since the discovery of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase
A new review was published in Volume 18 of Aging on May 15, 2026, titled "Blue period – features of senescence 30 years after beta-galactosidase."

Study links common sleep behaviors to signs of brain aging
How we sleep may have lasting impacts for our brain health as we age. A new University of Arizona study has found that several common sleep behaviors may be linked to signs of brain aging.
Popular supplement creatine supercharges critical immune cells fighting cancer
Creatine, the organic acid that is popularly taken as a supplement by athletes and bodybuilders, supercharges a critical class of immune cells that activate and prepare the body's key cancer-fighters, according to new UCLA research.
Study evaluates how facial aging features influence age perception in women
This study enrolled 308 Chinese women aged 15–65 years to explore the relationship between chronological age, perceived age, and facial aging manifestations.
Study validates research models for tracking circular extra-chromosomal DNA
Damage to DNA in cancer cells can lead to pieces breaking off chromosomes and floating away, like icebergs cracking off from a glacier.
Maternal vaccination provides protection against RSV-associated hospitalization in early infancy
A study led by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC published today in JAMA Network Open, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Medical Association, found that vaccination against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) during pregnancy reduced the risk of hospitalization in young infants by nearly 70%.

A class of flu drugs may reduce cognitive decline and premature aging in people living with chronic viral infection, reports a new study led by Northwestern University that began with blood samples from people with HIV and extended into preclinical drug trials.
Home sewage overflows expose residents to dangerous drug-resistant bacteria
A new study shows that sewage overflows in homes can expose people to bacteria that can make them sick, including antibiotic-resistant and multidrug resistant bacteria which can make infections difficult to treat.
Favorable lifestyle factors reduce dementia risk across key genetic profiles
With dementia cases expected to nearly triple worldwide by 2050, researchers are increasingly focused on identifying ways to prevent or delay the disease.
Hidden junk DNA could play decisive role in cancer
Many repetitive regions of the genome have been considered "junk DNA" because the technologies available did not allow them to be studied at sufficient resolution.
Study links pre-bedtime smartphone use to longer teen late nights
A new study to be presented at the SLEEP 2026 annual meeting found that on evenings when adolescents used their smartphone before bedtime more than their own usual, they used their smartphone for longer later that same night, compared with nights when they used their phones less before bedtime.
Review highlights TIGIT as a promising second-generation immunotherapy target
Malignant tumors remain a major threat to human health, with conventional therapies and first-generation immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) facing limitations like drug resistance and low response rates.
Antibody fragment offers safer alternative for Alzheimer disease treatment
In 2025, the European Medicines Agency approved two antibodies for Alzheimer's disease: lecanemab (Leqembi, from Biogen) and donanemab (KisunlaTM, from Eli Lilly and Company), both based on immunotherapy (the use of molecules from the immune system to treat diseases).
Biopsy-driven treatment strategy improves clinical outcomes in psoriatic arthritis
The management of psoriatic arthritis is increasingly focused on the early identification of clinical, immunological, and tissue-based phenotypes predictive of therapeutic response.
Untargeted metabolomics approach identifies potential biomarkers for latent tuberculosis diagnosis
Announcing a new article publication in BIO Integration. Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is difficult to diagnose due to the lack of a definitive gold standard.
Study reveals distinct sociodemographic risk factors in rare myopathies
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a heterogenous group of autoimmune conditions with substantial morbidity.
