Acromegaly linked to higher cancer risk

People with the rare growth hormone disorder acromegaly have a significantly higher risk of developing various types of cancer, often at ages younger than typically seen in the general population, according to a study being presented Monday at ENDO 2025, the Endocrine Society's annual meeting in San Francisco, Calif.

Long sitting hours raise breast cancer odds for inactive obese women

Prolonged daily sitting is linked to a higher prevalence of breast cancer in obese women, but only among those who are physically inactive. Regular physical activity eliminates this association, highlighting the importance of movement for breast cancer prevention in high-risk groups.

Uncovering the hidden architecture of the genome in three dimensions

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how stretches of DNA form genes, this oversimplification undersells the significance of the genome's 3D structure.

Intestinal microbiome and metabolite profiles linked to chemotherapy response in breast cancer

Announcing a new article publication for BIO Integration journal. Imbalances in the intestinal microbiome are closely associated with the occurrence and development of cancer, and can affect tumorigenesis by influencing the inflammatory response, regulating the immune system, producing specific metabolites, and participating in tumor signaling pathways.
