CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Scientists have identified a protein that plays a pivotal role in the action of several emerging cancer therapies. The researchers say the discovery will likely aid efforts to fine-tune the use of immunotherapies against several challenging cancers. They report their findings in the journal Cancer Research. "Most anticancer drugs cause cancer cells to shrivel up and die in a controlled process known as apoptosis. But apoptosis does not usually strongly activate immune cells," said David Shapiro , a professor of biochemistry at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign who led the research with former graduate student Santanu Ghosh.

MANILA, Philippines—Former Argentina basketball star Luis Scola encourages Gilas Pilipinas to believe in its Fiba World Cup 2023 campaign in August in Manila. When asked what advice can he give to the Philippine team, Scola said preparation is key when Gilas plays its third straight World Cup stint and hosts the prestigious basketball tournament. 'You gotta be prepared, really really really prepared. It's a tough competition, everything happens in a month. So you gotta be in really good shape. And sometimes, people underestimate that, you know, a lot of players, they get in shape while playing, but when you have a league that is 10 months, that's okay,' Scola, the World Cup ambassador, said on Saturday's draw at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

When an asteroid hit the Earth 66 million years ago, it set off a devastating mass extinction. The dinosaurs (except for a few birds) all died out, along with lots of the mammals. But some small mammals survived, laying the groundwork for all the mammals alive today. For decades, scientists have assumed that mammals and their relatives that survived challenging times (like those during mass extinctions) made it because they were generalists that were able to eat just about anything and adapt to whatever life threw at them.

The first jab was given: 1800 day-old chicks received a vaccination against highly pathogenic H5N1 bird flu. Never before have chickens in the Netherlands been vaccinated against bird flu in a field trial. This marks the start of this field trial, which is taking place on behalf of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV). It is an important step toward large-scale vaccination of poultry against the bird flu virus. Minister Adema of LNV: "Avian flu is a serious disease that has affected the poultry sector enormously, it affects both the animals and the farmers, and of course many wild birds have also died because of it.

Work stress, high workload, and understaffing are the primary factors driving health professionals out of the NHS, suggest the results of a survey published in the open access journal BMJ Open. The findings prompt the researchers to suggest that pay increases alone may not be sufficient to fix NHS staff retention. There are well over 100,000 staff vacancies in the NHS. And worsening retention of NHS health professionals has been attributed to the fall-out from the COVID-19 pandemic. To explore this further, the researchers wanted to assess the relative importance of widely cited 'push' factors behind decisions to leave the NHS, and whether these were ranked differently by profession and NHS setting, a year after exposure to the effects of the pandemic.
