– The STING protein, known for helping cells fight viral infections by generating inflammation, also appears to function as a quality control sensor for organelles that serve as cellular waste disposal systems, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers found. Their study, published in Molecular

A team of researchers including UT Southwestern Medical Center Pediatrics faculty members Jo-Ann Nesiama, M.D., Professor, and Geetanjali Srivastava, M.D., M.P.H., Associate Professor, collected data on 5,641 ED visits for pediatric anaphylaxis between 2016 and 2019 from 30 hospitals in the U.S. and

High levels of physical activity may mitigate brain loss in adults and help maintain long-term cognitive health, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center report in a study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology.

– UT Southwestern, one of the first medical schools in the country to integrate culinary medicine and nutrition education into its curriculum, is partnering with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and more than 50 other top medical schools to launch a program promoting more

Black and Hispanic children with high-risk neuroblastoma experience worse survival outcomes than their white peers, even when treated in frontline clinical trials, according to a study led by a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher.

A protein identified by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center may drive resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors, a widely used form of immunotherapy to treat cancer.

Fat cells genetically altered to overproduce a hormone called FGF21 resulted in improved metabolic health and an extended lifespan in mice that were fed a high-fat diet, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers report. The findings, published in Cell Metabolism, could lead to new interventions

Survival rates for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) fell during the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, with Black and Hispanic patients experiencing larger decreases in survival, according to a study by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers published in Resuscitation.

A new tool called PHOTON, developed by scientists at UT Southwestern Medical Center, can identify RNA molecules at their native locations within cells – providing valuable clues to where different RNA species are distributed spatially in response to various cellular cues.

UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists have identified a gene that appears to act as a master control switch for reactive gliosis, a prominent feature of many neurodegenerative diseases that is thought to contribute to their pathology.
