Researchers have shown for the first time that memory B cells — the immune system's long-term defenders — can migrate from lymph nodes into ovarian tumors and produce antibodies targeting them. Over a third of those antibodies bound strongly to ovarian cancer cells, pointing to a new class of cancer vaccines.

Des chercheurs ont montré pour la première fois que des cellules B mémoire peuvent migrer depuis les ganglions lymphatiques jusqu’aux tumeurs ovariennes et y produire des anticorps ciblés. Plus d’un tiers de ces anticorps se liaient fortement aux cellules cancéreuses, ouvrant la voie à de nouveaux vaccins contre le cancer.

Africa warms at twice the global average, and excessive heat can bring health problems. A simple solution is showing great effect: a coat of heat-reflective white paint on a rooftop can lower indoor temperatures enough to protect sleep and reduce the risk of serious illness. A trial across four communities in South Africa and Ghana is already showing residents feeling cooler — with full health results on the way.
