Researchers in Spain and Switzerland report that an experimental molecule called OLE helped restore protective behavior in the brain’s immune cells in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease, reducing amyloid-related pathology and improving performance on memory and movement tests.
A protein called NFIL3 has been identified as a key factor in reducing the long-term performance of CAR T cells used in cancer treatment. Researchers showed that disabling this protein allows the engineered cells to remain active longer and fight tumors more effectively in laboratory models.

Tenaya Therapeutics, Inc. released a slide deck on May 17, 2026, covering results from its RIDGE-1 Phase Ib/II trial of TN-401 gene therapy. The presentation focuses on treatment for PKP2-associated arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
Scientists at Texas A&M University Health Science Center have discovered that RNA forms droplet-like hubs in translocation renal cell carcinoma, activating tumor genes. By developing a molecular switch to dissolve these hubs, they halted cancer growth in lab and mouse models. The findings, published in Nature Communications, offer a new approach for treating this aggressive pediatric cancer.
