A molecule called glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) rose significantly in the blood of patients who underwent high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), a procedure that is used to treat tremors and causes damage similar to a small stroke, UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists discovered in

A person’s IQ during high school is predictive of alcohol consumption later in life, according to a study by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers published in Alcohol and Alcoholism.

Multidrug resistance in cancer can be overcome by combining a drug that blocks a key enzyme with another anticancer drug, according to a study in preclinical models led by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center. The findings, published in Science Advances, could have implications for patients

A well-known class of drugs used to manage Type 2 diabetes and control weight could offer hope for patients who also struggle with related chronic kidney disease (CKD), researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center found.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL), or “good” cholesterol, may play a vital role in conserving healthy brain matter in middle-aged adults, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers report.

People with Type 2 diabetes had significantly fewer heart attacks, strokes, heart failures, and deaths from cardiovascular disease when their blood pressure was lower than the current standard goal, a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher and his colleagues found.

A novel combination therapy slowed cognitive decline in elderly patients with a history of depression – a major risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center’s new Chair and Professor of Psychiatry found.

Ancient viral remnants in the human genome are activated during pregnancy and after significant bleeding in order to increase blood cell production, an important step toward defining the purpose of “junk DNA” in humans, according to new research from Children’s Medical Center Research Institute at

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has identified a key mechanism responsible for endosomal recycling in cells, a process critical to human health. Their findings, published in Nature Communications, answer a fundamental question in cell biology and could lead to therapies for

A far shorter, simpler, and less toxic treatment protocol for patients with triple-negative breast cancer produced outcomes similar to the current standard of care, a clinical trial co-led by a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher shows.
