Summary: A new study finds that the bacteria Streptococcus anginosus is more abundant in the saliva and gut of people who have had a stroke and is associated with a higher risk of death and major cardiovascular events. Researchers compared 189 stroke patients with 55 non-stroke participants, finding that this bacterium increased stroke risk by 20%.

Meanwhile, beneficial bacteria like Anaerostipes hadrus and Bacteroides plebeius were linked to a reduced stroke risk. The findings highlight the importance of oral hygiene in stroke prevention, as Streptococcus anginosus contributes to tooth decay.

From being a promising yet underexplored approach in the 1990s, mRNA therapeutics have evolved dramatically. The discovery of chemical modifications to overcome mRNA’s instability and immunotoxicity enabled these therapeutics to reach clinical trials and the forefront of modern medicine. The platform’s scalability, rapid production and relatively straightforward manufacturing process mean that mRNA therapeutics are a powerful alternative to traditional small molecule drugs and DNA technology.

Enzymes are a vital tool that make in vitro transcription possible and refine the reaction products to generate highly pure, homogeneous mRNA. In this ebook, we provide an in-depth review into:

Experimental findings indicated that activating T cells for 48 hours in combination of certain stimuli could encourage aerobic glycolysis. The highest level of aerobic glycolysis was noted with a combination of three stimuli, namely T cell receptor (TCR) triggering, CD28 costimulation, and hyper-physiologic concentrations of IL-2.

To generate an ‘‘in vivo-activated’’-like state and enhance efficacy, freshly isolated TCR-Tg pmel-1 CD8+ T cells were activated using antigen-presenting cells, cognate peptide (gp100), and IL-2. A 7-day T cell conditioning with DCA reduced extracellular lactate and increased total acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) by changing glycolytic flux.

To assess the effects of DCA conditioning on the potency of therapeutic T cells in cancer immunotherapy, these cells were used to treat mice bearing B16 melanoma. Cytotoxicity assays showed a small but significant improvement in the therapeutic potential of DCA-conditioned T cells.

Artificial food colours — the kind you find in candies, drinks and processed meats — are now under international scrutiny for possibly causing cancer, allergic reactions and behavioural issues. What can you do to keep your food safe?

There’s something undeniably attractive about the colour red. It’s powerful, bold and assertive on the lips; appetising in food and on restaurant billboards; and certainly hard to miss on a traffic signal — or so we’d hope!

In today’s AI news, ElevenLabs said on Thursday it has raised $180 million in a new funding round that triples the voice cloning artificial intelligence startup’s valuation to $3.3 billion. The Series C funding round was co-led by Andreessen Horowitz and Iconiq Growth, with participation from additional new investors.

On Thursday, OpenAI announced that it is deepening its ties with the US government through a partnership with the National Laboratories and expects to use AI to “supercharge” research across a wide range of fields to better serve the public.

“This is the beginning of a new era, where AI will advance science, strengthen national security, and support US government initiatives,” OpenAI said.

In other advancements, Cerebras Systems announced today it will host DeepSeek’s breakthrough R1 artificial intelligence model on U.S. servers, promising speeds up to 57 times faster than GPU-based solutions while keeping sensitive data within American borders. The move comes amid growing concerns about China’s rapid AI advancement and data privacy.

And, the US Copyright Office issued AI guidance this week that declared no laws need to be clarified when it comes to protecting authorship rights of humans producing AI-assisted works. “Questions of copyrightability and AI can be resolved pursuant to existing law, without the need for legislative change,” the Copyright Office said.

In videos, let’s bust some early myths about DeepSeek. In episode 40 of Mixture of Experts, join host Tim Hwang along with experts Aaron Baughman, Chris Hay and Kate Soule. Last week, we covered the release of DeepSeek-R1; now that the entire world is up to speed, let’s separate the facts from the hype. Next, what is model distillation and why does it matter for competition in AI?

Then, recorded at TEDAI Vienna, AI researcher Youssef Nader and digital archaeologist Julian Schilliger share how they used AI to virtually “unroll” and decode the Herculaneum scrolls, burnt and buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago. Learn how AI could help decipher a range of artifacts, revealing clues about the mysteries and achievements of the ancient world. And, the native 1080p AI Video from Pika can create hyper-realistic animals. Jerrod Lew is back with another demo of Pika 2.1 generating animals with text-to-video prompts.
