Mumbai doctors remove lemon-sized tumour from man’s heart

As people deal with many different sicknesses, it is often difficult to find hope not only for the patient but also for their family members.

Researchers decode how different body parts interact under physiological stress

A new study has mapped how different body parts communicate with each other under physiological stress, such as during exercise or sleep deprivation, which researchers say could one day help diagnose an illness earlier. Researchers at the University of Portsmouth and University College London, UK, said the study encourages a "whole-body" view of physiology, instead of focusing on isolated measurements such as heart or breathing rate. Using `transfer entropy` -- a method of monitoring body signals -- a complex network of maps was created showing which body parts act as `information hubs` under different stress conditions, the team explained. For example, during exercise, the heart -- which is working hard to pump blood to muscles -- receives the most input from other systems and therefor...

Study decodes how cancer treatments may trigger serious side-effects

While cancer has seen some significant advancements in treatments that have shown promise and increased lifespan, these may also cause serious side effects, which can affect quality of life. A new study by researchers from Australia is shedding new light on the reasons behind these side effects, Xinhua news agency reported. The team from Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research (WEHI) in Melbourne discovered that the protein MCL-1 -- a key target in cancer drug development -- plays not only a role in preventing cell death in cancer cells but also supplying energy to normal cells. As a result, drugs that inhibit MCL-1 can inadvertently damage healthy tissues that rely on this protein for energy, especially in organs with high energy demand like the heart and liver, leading to ...
