🔍 Why are #cancers rising in young people? 📊 In 14 out of 50 countries, cancers among younger adults are on the rise while rates in older people remain steady. Oncologist Eileen O'Reilly sees a person under the age of 40 with pancreatic cancer almost every week. “These are people in the prime of life, who are starting families and have everything to live for. ” What's behind this shift? Researchers point to factors like obesity, sleep deprivation, microplastics, ultra-processed foods, and antibiotics.

🧬 Certain #bacteria have a fascinating trick up their sleeves! 🦠 They can assemble a new #gene using RNA as a blueprint to create a #DNA sequence that fights off invading viruses. This process, involving special enzymes, challenges the traditional flow of genetic info from DNA to RNA. “If the host shuts down, the virus has no resources to be able to replicate itself,” says one of research author.

✨ Tiny RNAs, big impact! Congratulations to Victor Ambros & Gary Ruvkun, 2024 #NobelPrize winners in Physiology/Medicine! 🧠 These two scientists discovered a type of RNA molecule that helps control the activity of #genes, allowing our cells to perform all their myriad of functions in different tissues throughout the body. The Nobel committee described it as a “groundbreaking discovery, revealing a completely new principle of gene regulation that turned out to be essential for multicellular organisms, including humans.” Full details: https://lnkd.in/g8-xG_b #MicroRNA #Genetics #ScienceBreakthrough #BGIGeneTest

🌡️ Fevers can help us fight off infections, but they may also have a downside. New research shows that elevated temperatures boost immune warriors like CD4 T cells, but can also trigger #DNA damage that may promote cancer. “A little bit of fever is good, but a lot of fever is bad,” says study co-author Prof. Jeffrey Rathmell.
