Researchers have mapped the spatial distribution of around 700 long non-coding RNAs, otherwise known as lncRNAs, in the testes. The team discovered much higher levels of lncRNAs in the testes than had been previously estimated, indicating that lncRNAs may play a more significant role in male reproduction than previously believed. Researchers at the University of

The Stockholm3 blood test is equally effective at detecting prostate cancer in different ethnic groups, a new paper reports. The test produces significantly better results than the current PSA standard. The Stockholm3 blood test, developed by researchers at Karolinska Institutet, is equally effective at detecting prostate cancer in different ethnic groups, a new paper published

A new report highlights a troubling trend: while global adolescent fertility rates have significantly declined, sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing an increase in teen births. This region's share of global adolescent births surged from 12 percent in 1950 to 47 percent in 2020 and is projected to reach a clear majority -- a full 67 percent

Despite treatment-related fertility challenges, female patients can become pregnant and give birth to healthy children after undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT), according to a new study. Despite treatment-related fertility challenges, female patients can become pregnant and give birth to healthy children after undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT), according to a study published in

A recent study examined data from more than 10,000 patients with 'Biopsy Gleason Grade Group (GGG) 1,' a diagnosis considered to be the lowest grade cancer. Researchers found that even among patients diagnosed using the most modern diagnostic approach, 8 percent of patients with GGG1 had high-risk prostate cancer. Two risk factors -- high PSA

The study reveals vast differences in gene activity within the mitochondria of males compared to females. This is the first study to test effects of all 37 genes in the mitochondrial genome -- genes that copepods and humans share. The study found that males demonstrate more activity across all protein-coding mitochondrial genes than females. Although

An unexpectedly versatile and regenerative stem cell in early embryos may be key to creating new effective fertility treatments, suggests a new study in mice.

Tumors significantly improved the accuracy and consistency of predicting their size. This breakthrough method offers a 45-fold increase in precision compared to traditional clinical methods, leading to more effective treatment planning and improved patient outcomes. The utilization of AI in cancer contouring represents a pivotal advancement in the field of oncology, with the potential to revolutionize the way cancer is diagnosed and treated

Of Biomedicine and Bioinformatics identified SIX2 as a key protein associated with cancer cell plasticity and treatment resistance in prostate cancer. Understanding the pivotal role of SIX2 in driving treatment resistance could lead to the development of more effective treatment strategies for prostate cancer patients. This groundbreaking research sheds light on the potential for targeted therapies to overcome treatment resistance and improve patient outcomes

The University of Washington School of Medicine. The therapy, known as CAR-T cell therapy, harnesses the power of the immune system to target and destroy cancer cells. This groundbreaking approach shows promise for treating aggressive cancers that do not respond to traditional therapies. With its potential to revolutionize cancer treatment, this therapy offers hope for patients with advanced prostate and bladder cancers

Laboratory setting was highly effective for treating prostate cancer, researchers found. This groundbreaking study showcases the potential benefits of incorporating pre-ketone supplements into cancer treatments. By leveraging the power of a ketogenic diet, this innovative approach presents a promising avenue for enhancing the efficacy of cancer therapy. With its potential to revolutionize cancer treatment, this research highlights the significance of exploring alternative strategies to combat cancer

Problem in prostate cancer: how to distinguish between slow-growing and aggressive forms of the disease. This test offers a non-invasive and reliable way to identify which patients require immediate treatment, potentially reducing unnecessary interventions and improving patient outcomes. The innovative approach utilizes urine samples to provide personalized treatment recommendations, making it a game-changer in the field of prostate cancer diagnosis and management
