Scientists from Universit de Montral have made an exciting discovery about the camu-camu berry, a fruit native to the Amazon rainforest. Already known for its health benefits, including protecting against obesity and diabetes, this small berry may also help in the fight against cancer.
Scientists from the University of Auckland have discovered that a cancer drug called alpelisib may help extend lifespanÑat least in mice. The researchers wanted to see whether this drug, which is currently used to treat certain cancers, could also slow down aging.
Researchers at Tel Aviv University (TAU) successfully utilized CRISPR, a gene-editing technology, to remove a single gene from cancer cells in head and neck tumors. The study, conducted in animal models, resulted in the elimination of 50% of the tumors. The findings were published in the journal Advanced Science.
