Men are more susceptible than women to skin infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, but the biological basis for this disparity has remained unclear. A new study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers is the first to reveal testosterone, present at higher levels in males, as a key driver of infection. The sex steroid activates a bacterial communication pathway known as quorum sensing, increasing skin cell death and promoting the destruction of red blood cells and white blood cells called neutrophils.

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have discovered that a crucial developmental process in the brain’s hypothalamus may influence how susceptible individuals are to obesity.

Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., an internationally recognized expert in the fields of genetics, immunology, and infectious diseases who will be joining UT Southwestern Medical Center on July 1, has been selected along with a global team of researchers to receive a Cancer Grand Challenges award of up to $25 million.

A new type of CAR T-cell therapy more than triples the expected length of remission for multiple myeloma patients who have relapsed several times, according to an international clinical trial with UT Southwestern as the lead enrolling site.

A set of biomarkers not traditionally associated with cell fate can accurately predict how genetically identical cells behave differently under stress, according to a UT Southwestern study.

A protein that wreaks havoc in the nerves and heart when it clumps together can prevent the formation of toxic protein clumps associated with Alzheimer’s disease

Fusing the neck’s top two vertebrae can prevent repeat strokes in children with bow hunter syndrome, a rare condition that affects a handful of U.S. pediatric patients each year, UT Southwestern researchers suggest in a recent study.

Bleeding is the most common cause of preventable death after injury. Researchers at Children’s Medical Center Dallas are seeking community consultation for possible future participation from parents and legal guardians in a study that will compare two resuscitation treatments (whole blood versus traditional blood component therapy, and tranexamic acid versus no tranexamic acid) for children ages 1 month to 18 years old.
