Cancer Drugs Show Promise in Reversing Alzheimer's in Mice
Research shows that the FDA-approved cancer drugs letrozole and irinotecan, when combined, reduced brain degeneration and improved memory in mice, offering a potential new Alzheimer's treatment that could significantly reduce development time and cost.

7,000 Steps Daily Linked to Reduced Disease Risk
A new study suggests that walking 7,000 steps daily, rather than the common 10,000, significantly reduces risks of heart disease (25%), cancer (6%), dementia (38%), and depression (22%), based on data from 160,000 adults worldwide, challenging the prevailing 10,000-step guideline.

Glyphosate Cancer Study: Bayer Challenges Ramazzini Institute Findings
The Ramazzini Institute's study linked glyphosate exposure to increased cancer rates in lab rats, prompting Bayer's criticism over inconsistencies with control groups and a lack of dose-response correlation; the study's findings align with the WHO's 2015 classification of glyphosate as "probably car...

Discovery of Key Cells Causing Axial Spondyloarthritis Opens Door to New Treatments
Oxford University researchers discovered that trapped CD4+ TRM17 cells in joints produce the inflammatory protein IL-17, causing axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) in approximately 200,000 people in the UK, potentially leading to new treatments targeting these cells.

Asteroid Ryugu Reveals New Origin for Life's Building Blocks
A study of asteroid Ryugu samples suggests that life's building blocks, including water and organic materials, originated near Jupiter due to turbulence and a pressure bump, rather than solely in distant regions of the early solar system, as previously thought.

Misdiagnosed Hearing Loss Leads to Permanent Damage
47-year-old Caroline Norman's sudden hearing loss was misdiagnosed as earwax, resulting in permanent damage due to delayed treatment; this highlights the critical need for prompt medical attention for sudden sensorineural hearing loss, a condition affecting up to 15,000 UK residents annually.
