This new article publication from Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, discusses how disrupting calcium homeostasis and glycometabolism in engineered lipid-based pharmaceuticals propel cancer immunogenic death.
New research has revealed that Schistosoma haematobium (S. haematobium), a parasitic infection affecting millions globally, can trigger cancer-related gene activity in the cervical lining, with changes becoming even more pronounced after treatment.1 Presented today at ESCMID Global 2025, this pivotal study sheds new light on how this often-overlooked parasitic disease may contribute to cervical cancer risk at the molecular level.
