A group, led by researchers from the University of Edinburgh, discovered that TLR2 helps control some of the body's defense mechanisms when cancerous mutations occur in cells.
Researchers investigating the mechanics of the early stages of lung cancer have identified a new potential treatment, which could also aid early detection of the disease.
Researchers at Imperial College London, University College London and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust have found that a new type of ultrasound scan can diagnose most prostate cancer cases with good accuracy in a clinical trial involving 370 men.
London [UK], October 5 (ANI): According to a new study by Nick Lane and colleagues at University College London, UK, a straightforward two-carbon molecule may have been a key participant in the evolution of metabolism before the appearance of cells. The discovery may shed light on the earliest phases of prebiotic biochemistry and offer an explanation for how ATP came to be the common energy source for all living things in cells today.
London [UK], August 12 (ANI): An multinational research team led by UCL has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) programme that can identify minute brain anomalies that lead to epileptic seizures.

Fossils show secrets about the life on earth Scientists believe they were successful in identifying the oldest fossils on Earth dating back to 3.75 or even 4.2 billion years, Found at a […]
Heatwaves at both poles of the earth are alarming climate experts. They believe such “unprecedented” events could spark a faster and more severe climatic breakdown than previously imagined. Temperatures in some sections of Antarctica reached 40 degrees Celsius above usual which prompted the warnings. Also, temperatures at the north pole reached 30 degrees Celsius above normal. Thereby, […]
Barcelona [Spain], March 19 (ANI): A new research has proposed using the variations in distance between the Earth and the Moon, which can be measured with a precision of less than a centimetre, as a new gravitational wave detector within a frequency range that current devices cannot detect. The research could pave the way for the detection of signals from the early universe.
Washington [US], January 15 (ANI): A team of researchers from the University College London recently found that children's educational success depends on the genes of their parents, both inherited and not inherited.
London [UK], January 11 (ANI): Through a recent study, researchers found that people with severe alcohol disorder were able to stay off alcohol for longer when they were treated with low doses of ketamine combined with psychological therapy in a clinical trial.
