New research reveals the remarkable complexity of human milk

10 October 2026 at 12:50
Two major international studies are providing new insight into how human milk is regulated, showing that some components respond to maternal nutrition, while others remain stable or reflect biological processes involved in lactation and infant growth.

A trick from tardigrades could help human blood withstand freezing

10 October 2026 at 09:03
Tardigrades, also called water bears, are famous for their ability to survive nearly anything. They protect themselves in extreme environments using proteins that researchers have developed into an efficient and effective strategy to preserve human red blood cells.

Routine blood test may offer clues to future dementia risk

10 October 2026 at 03:44
A common blood test already carried out during routine health checks may contain clues about a person's long-term risk of dementia, according to research being presented at the ECNP Congress in Munich and recently published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease.

Some mice showed signs of stress resilience before the stress even began

17 September 2026 at 06:01
Researchers found that mice later classified as resilient showed stronger coordination between neuronal OFF-periods and slow-wave activity in the prelimbic cortex even before social stress. After social defeat, resilient mice also showed a distinct reorganization of neuronal silence during NREM sleep, linking local sleep dynamics with behavioral resilience.

GLP-1 drugs and SGLT-2 inhibitors linked to slower kidney decline

17 September 2026 at 05:07
The diabetes drugs glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor drugs may also help to slow decline in kidney function in people with type 2 diabetes and albuminuria (high protein levels in the urine), finds a large US study published by The BMJ today.
