Crispr gene-editing technology has demonstrated its revolutionary potential in recent years: It has been used to treat rare diseases, to adapt crops to withstand the extremes of climate change, or even to change the color of a spider’s web. But the greatest hope is that this technology will help find a cure for a global disease, such as diabetes. A new study points in that direction.

Immunotherapy drug clinical trial results: half of tumors shrink or disappear

news.ycombinator.com August 2025-10-05 16:55:16

Over the past 20 years, a class of cancer drugs called CD40 agonist antibodies have shown great promise—and induced great disappointment. While effective at activating the immune system to kill cancer cells in animal models, the drugs had limited impact on patients in clinical trials and caused dangerously systemic inflammatory responses, low platelet counts, and liver toxicity, among other adverse reactions—even at a low dose. But in 2018, the lab of Rockefeller University’s Jeffrey V. Ravetch

One-shot vaccines for HIV and covid

technologyreview.com Anne Trafton 2025-10-28 14:00:00

Irvine and MIT professor J. Christopher Love, the senior authors of a paper on the work, had found that the combination helped generate more robust immune responses. In the new paper, they showed that the dual-adjuvant vaccine accumulated in the lymph nodes, where white blood cells known as B cells encounter antigens and undergo rapid mutations that generate new antibodies. The vaccine’s antigens remained there for up to a month, allowing the immune system to build up a much greater number and d

With back-to-school season almost here, there's lots of pressure to make sure your kids have all their supplies on hand. However, another thing you have to look out for is potential illness. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2022, almost 6% of students aged 5 to 17 had chronic absenteeism in school due to illness, injury or disability. Even kids who don’t have chronic absenteeism can miss a day or two because they catch something in the classroom. Dr. Markyia Ni

Diabetic Man With Gene-Edited Cells Produces His Own Insulin—No Transplant Drugs Required

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-11-30 10:20:36

A new case study offers a tantalizing glimpse into the potential future of transplantation medicine. A man with type 1 diabetes is now able to make his own insulin thanks to a transplant of gene-edited pancreatic cells—a transplant that hasn’t required the typical drugs used to avoid rejection. Scientists in Sweden and the U.S. conducted the research, published this week in the New England Journal of Medicine. The 42-year-old man with long-standing diabetes was given donated islet cells that we
