Adelaide University researchers will investigate why Australia has the highest rate of early-onset bowel cancer in the world as part of a national collaboration into the causes of the killer disease.
A research team led by Prof. ZHOU Xuyu from the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with researchers from Beijing Ditan Hospital and Capital Medical University, has identified ANKRD11 as a key regulator that reduces the activity of CD8 + T cells during chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and cancer. The researchers found that ANKRD11 suppresse

Living human cells will launch aboard a European research rocket next month as South Australian researchers use space to investigate cancer in a radically different environment.
Man doing analysis on blood collection tubes in the laboratory Researchers from Queen Mary University of London, the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) and Genomics England have shown that measuring proteins in the blood can provide important additional clues about the effects of genetic variants, helping to identify diagnoses and potential new disease-causing genes that genome sequencing

Scientists recently discovered various Denisovan remains in Southwest China dating back to the late Middle Pleistocene, including the first Denisovan radius—one of two long bones in the forearm. Denisovans are a genetically identified archaic hominin group believed to have been widely distributed across Asia. However, due to the limited number of fossil remains, especially postcranial bones—those

现代主栽香蕉品种高度依赖营养繁殖，存在遗传基础狭窄、遗传多样性低等问题。芭蕉科现存约80个物种，不同类群在染色体基数（如 n =11、10和9）以及花苞颜色等性状上呈现多样性，是研究植物染色体结构演化和花器官性状分化的理想类群。然而，这些不同染色体基数的演化形成机制、染色体结构变异与花苞颜色分化的内在关联，长期以来缺乏基因组与细胞遗传学层面的直接证据。

by Taylor McNeil September 10, 2026 Biomedical Science , Cancer , School of Arts and Sciences , Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Share When cancer strikes, it doesn’t appear in isolation—the surrounding materials in our bodies have been tricked into supporting the tumor’s out-of-control growth. An important part of that mix is the microenvironment around the tumors, made up largely of the extracellular matrix, with its variety of molecules and proteins like collagen and elastin. How that ext
The Lasker Foundation has announced that UT Southwestern sleep researcher Masashi Yanagisawa, M.D., Ph.D., is a recipient of the 2026 Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award for his discovery of orexin, a brain peptide that maintains wakefulness, and demonstration that the absence of its action is responsible for narcolepsy, a profound disorder of sleep.

Scientists have recently found that a long‑term dominant diatom in China's South-to-North Water Diversion Project maintains its edge through a mutually reinforced cycle with bacteria , whereas a short‑term dominant species lacks such a close partnership and is far less resilient . The study, led by researchers from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was publish
