Treatments for metastatic breast cancer have played a pivotal role in reducing mortality rates. Advances in targeted therapies, hormone therapies, and immunotherapies have improved the effectiveness of treatments, slowing disease progression and enhancing overall survival. Early detection, personalized treatment plans, and a multidisciplinary approach have also contributed. Patients now benefit from a more comprehensive understanding of the disease’s molecular characteristics, allowing for tailored interventions. Ongoing research and therapeutic innovations continue to shape the landscape, offering hope for improved outcomes and prolonged survival for individuals with metastatic breast cancer.

Scientists genetically manipulate Patescibacteria, a major part of microbial dark matter
Scientists have discovered how to genetically manipulate Patescibacteria, a group of bacteria that constitute a disproportionately large fraction of microbial dark matter. These bacteria are mostly epibionts, meaning they grow on other organisms. The researchers used a technique called natural competence to introduce genes into the bacteria. This technique allowed them to study the genes […]
Temperature increase triggers viral infection
Breaking ground in virology! Lund University researchers, in collaboration with the NIST Synchrotron Facility, have unraveled the mysteries of how a virus responds to temperature changes at the atomic level. The study, led by Alex Evilevitch, reveals that as the temperature rises, the virus’s genetic material undergoes a transformative shift, becoming more fluid-like. This crucial […]
