The combined effect of environmental exposures and unhealthy lifestyle habits can affect children’s cardiometabolic health in a way that exceeds their separate effects.

Researchers from the Neuro-Innovation PhD programme are organising, for the first time, an English-language science camp as part of SnellmanEDU’s Children’s University.

Some cancer cells can survive chemotherapy, which may lead to cancer recurrence. A new study reveals how cancer cells can perform this "evasive maneuver” in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Young people with higher blood pressure performed worse especially in tasks that measured attention and learning.

Treatment resistance caused by cancer cell plasticity constitutes a major challenge in the treatment of prostate cancer. The SIX2 protein may be a possible factor underlying increased plasticity of prostate cancer cells and treatment resistance.

By utilising state-of-the-art proteomics methods, the doctoral research identified protein networks of the androgen receptor, the main transcription factor of prostate cancer.

According to a recent Finnish study, high levels of sedentary behaviour and physical inactivity from childhood strain the heart in adolescence.

New research sheds light on the significance of the glucocorticoid receptor in drug-resistant prostate cancer, showing that the development of drug resistance could be prevented by limiting the activity of coregulator proteins.

“The brain’s immune cells, microglia, are implicated in virtually all neurological diseases, particularly Alzheimer’s disease,” said University Professor Christian Madry.

It may be possible to restore drug-resistant neuroendocrine prostate cancer to a state that responds to treatment by depletion of a certain protein in cancer cells.
