Over 100 million Americans face barriers to primary care access, leading many to seek health information from wellness influencers. Experts warn this shift creates significant misinformation risks as uncredentialed creators promote products and oversimplified solutions to complex health issues.
Americans are increasingly turning to wellness influencers for health guidance as traditional healthcare becomes harder to access, according to reports. A 2023 study by the National Association of Community Health Centers and HealthLandscape at the American Academy of Family Physicians found that over 100 million Americans, approximately one-third of the U.S. population, now face barriers to accessing primary care. Analysts suggest this number has nearly doubled since 2014, creating an information vacuum that wellness influencers are rapidly filling.

Groundbreaking research reveals how RNA-binding protein hnRNPM drives colorectal cancer progression through alternative splicing regulation. The study demonstrates that targeting hnRNPM and its splicing targets significantly suppresses tumor growth in both laboratory and animal models, offering new hope for cancer therapeutics.
Recent scientific investigations have uncovered the significant role of RNA-binding protein hnRNPM in colorectal cancer progression, according to reports published in Oncogene. The comprehensive study demonstrates that hnRNPM functions as a critical regulator of alternative splicing events that drive tumor development and proliferation. Researchers found that targeting this protein and its associated pathways could potentially open new avenues for cancer treatment strategies.
New computational pipelines combining genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data are transforming neoantigen discovery for cancer immunotherapy. Researchers report significant advances in predicting which tumor-specific peptides can trigger effective immune responses. The integration of artificial intelligence and deep learning models is addressing long-standing challenges in immunogenicity prediction.
Computational approaches to neoantigen discovery are rapidly advancing cancer immunotherapy, with new tools and methodologies improving the identification of tumor-specific targets, according to recent analysis in Genes & Immunity. The process begins with detecting tumor-specific genetic alterations through next-generation sequencing technologies including RNA-Seq and whole exome or genome sequencing. Sources indicate that sequencing DNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells provides a crucial normal reference for comparison and enables haplotype determination.
AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo’s targeted cancer therapy Enhertu has demonstrated remarkable efficacy in early-stage breast cancer treatment. According to recent trial data, the drug reduced recurrence risk by 53% and showed superior complete response rates compared to standard therapies, potentially transforming treatment approaches for HER2-positive breast cancer patients.
New clinical trial data presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress indicates that AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo’s drug Enhertu has shown promising results in treating early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer, according to reports from the medical conference. The findings suggest the drug, currently approved for advanced cancers, could represent a significant advancement toward curative treatment for patients in earlier disease stages.
A Stanford-trained engineer has pioneered a blood test that can detect colon cancer through DNA fragments. The FDA-approved technology represents a significant advancement in liquid biopsies and could transform routine cancer screening.
According to reports from Business Insider, a Silicon Valley engineer has developed a blood test capable of detecting colon cancer through analyzing cancer DNA fragments in the bloodstream. Helmy Eltoukhy, co-CEO of Guardant and Stanford electrical engineering alumnus, reportedly approached cancer detection as an engineering challenge after witnessing the “diagnostic odyssey” patients endure.
