The caffeine conundrum in rapid depression treatments

Perhaps the most intriguing implication of recent breakthrough research lies in an unexpected connection: the most rigorous mechanistic dissection of rapid antidepressant action identifies adenosine as the critical mediator, yet adenosine receptors are the primary target of caffeine, the world's most widely consumed psychoactive substance.

Financial incentives increase medication adherence but do not improve blood pressure outcomes

People with high blood pressure were twice as likely to take their blood pressure medication regularly when offered daily chances to win cash rewards, yet they did not achieve better blood pressure measurements compared to people who were not offered financial rewards, according to a preliminary late-breaking science presentation today at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2025.

GLP-1 drugs linked to improved survival in colon cancer patients

A new University of California San Diego study offers compelling evidence that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists - the class of drugs behind Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro, for example - may do more than regulate blood sugar and weight.

Study reveals how neural excitability and learning potential fluctuate across the day

Our brains do not react in a fixed, mechanical way like electronic circuits. Even if we see the same scene every day on our commute to work, what we feel - and whether it leaves a lasting impression - depends on our internal state at that moment.

Study warns of unsafe antiseizure drug use despite rising access

In a study carried out in collaboration with the World Health Organization, two Aston University academics have found that while access to antiseizure medication in low- and middle-income countries is growing, it is not necessarily always prescribed safely.

Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 linked to progression and spread of triple-negative breast cancer

When researchers look for potential cancer therapy targets, they typically go after protein-coding genes that participate in disease progression. Disrupt them and negate whatever role they play in cancer's development or spread.

Prior exposure to cold viruses boosts antibody response against SARS-CoV-2

Prior exposure to coronaviruses that cause ordinary colds can boost the immune system's ability to attack a vulnerable site on the COVID-19-causing coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine.

Amyloid-clearing drug fails to change waste clearance function in the brains of Alzheimer's patients

A group from Osaka Metropolitan University in Japan, led by graduate student Tatsushi Oura and Dr. Hiroyuki Tatekawa, found that treatment using the drug lecanemab to remove amyloid plaques in the brain does not change the waste clearance function in the brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients in the short term.
