Donor Milk or Formula: Which is Better for Preterm Infant Neurodevelopment

A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association explores the impact of feeding extremely preterm infants with nutrient-fortified, pasteurized donor human milk versus preterm formula. 483 infants were randomized, with 239 in the donor milk ...

Ozempic Linked to Reduced Dementia Risk, Nicotine Misuse

Researchers found that semaglutide, known as Ozempic/ Wegovy, does not increase the risk of neurological or psychiatric conditions compared to other antidiabetic drugs. It may also reduce the risk of certain conditions like dementia and nicotine misuse. The corresponding study was published in eClinicalMedicine ...

A Gene Editor to Correct a Common Cystic Fibrosis Mutation

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common genetic disorders that has been well studied. Researchers have identified CF-causing mutations in a gene called CFTR, which encodes for an ion channel. The genetic mutations disrupt the ion channel., leading to the accumulation of thick mucus in the lungs and other areas. This ...

How can clinicians use spatial transcriptomics data to interpret the complexity of tumor microenvironment?

Kwon Joong Na - Chief Medical Officer, Portrai

Spatial transcriptomics offers a revolutionary approach to understanding the tumor microenvironment (TME) in solid tumors by preserving the spatial context of gene expression, which is crucial for comprehending the interactions between various cell types, such as cancer cells, immune cells, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. By integrating high-throughput sequencing and imaging technologies ...
