  • Scientists Track Doubling in Origin of Cancer Cells

    Working with human breast and lung cells, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have charted a molecular pathway that can lure cells down a hazardous path of duplicating their genome too many times, a hallmark of cancer cells.

    The findings, published May 3 in Science, reveal what goes wrong when a group of molecules and enzymes trigger and regulate what’s known as the “cell cycle,” the repetitive process of making new cells out of the cells’ genetic material.

  • Researchers Identify Biomarkers in Blood to Predict Liver Cancer
    Early detection has the potential to transform treatment and outcomes in cancer care, especially for cancers like liver cancer, which is typically diagnosed at a late stage with limited options for cure.
  • Tsetse fly protein provides anti-clotting agent with its own on-off switch
    Researchers at the University of Sydney and University of Geneva have developed a new anticoagulant, whose anticlotting action can be rapidly stopped ‘on demand’. The result could lead to new surgical and post-operative drugs that minimise the risk of serious bleeding.
  • EMA recommends marketing authorisation for Truqap

  • Lilly Q1 2024 increased by 26 percent driven by Mounjaro, Zepbound, Verzenio and Jardiance

    In Q1 2024, worldwide revenue was USD 8.77 billion, an increase of 26 percent compared with Q1 2023, driven by increases of 16 percent in volume and 10 percent due to higher realized prices. The volume increase was primarily driven by growth from Mounjaro, Zepbound, Verzenio and Jardiance, partially offset by declines in Trulicity.

  • Sanofi has launched GLP-1 drug in India
    Soliqua is indicated as treatment in adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, to improve glycemic control as an adjunct to diet and exercise, in those who are insufficiently controlled on oral or injectable therapies.
