A study conducted in mice by scientists from the Institut Pasteur and Inserm reveals that maternal consumption of dietary emulsifiers can have a negative impact on the gut microbiota of their offspring.
What if vaccination could be administered by simple skin application rather than injection? A team of researchers from Inserm, Institut Curie, and King's College London investigated the impact of external mechanical constraints (skin stretching, friction, etc.) on skin impermeability in animals and humans.
With neonatal mortality on the increase in France, a new study by Inserm, Paris Cité University, Inrae, Paris Nord University and APHP shows that it could be linked to socioeconomic inequalities. Using their social deprivation index adjusted for the perinatal period, the researchers observed that the risk of neonatal death is higher for mothers living in deprived municipalities.
A new study, published in Nature Medicine, highlights the efficacy of patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd), an antibody HER3-directed-drug conjugate (ADC), in patients with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer who had already received multiple treatments, including hormone therapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies.
In recent years, scientists have been exploring unexpected links between human proteins involved in the body’s defense mechanisms and certain bacterial immune proteins. Focusing on conserved immune domains originating from bacteria, termed “ancestral immune”, a team of researchers from Institut Curie, Institut Pasteur, and Inserm identified a novel human immune protein, SIRal.
A new class of molecules capable of killing the cancer cells that are refractory to standard treatments and responsible for recurrence has just been developed by scientists at Institut Curie, the CNRS, and Inserm.
Tackling HIV continues to be a major public health challenge, mainly because the persistence of viral reservoirs means that people living with HIV need to take lifelong antiretroviral treatment. But some individuals, known as "post-treatment controllers," are able to maintain an undetectable viral load even after stopping treatment. Scientists from the Institut Pasteur, Inserm and the Paris Public Hospital Network (AP-HP) identified specific immunogenetic characteristics in a group...

But some individuals, known as "post-treatment controllers," are able to maintain an undetectable viral load even after stopping treatment. In a study funded by ANRS Emerging Infectious Diseases (ANRS MIE), scientists from the Institut Pasteur, Inserm and the Paris Public Hospital...
Food additive mixtures are an everyday feature of our diets, especially through ultra-processed foods. In a new study, researchers from Inserm, INRAE, Sorbonne Paris Nord University, Paris Cité University and Cnam, as part of the Nutritional Epidemiology Research Team (CRESS-EREN), examined the possible links between exposure to mixtures of commonly consumed food additives and the onset of type 2 diabetes. They analysed the health data of over 100 000 adults...
Many cases of sudden cardiac death could be avoided thanks to artificial intelligence. As part of a new study to be published in European Heart Journal, a network of artificial neurons imitating the human brain was developed by researchers from Inserm, Paris Cité University and the Paris public hospitals group (AP-HP), in collaboration with their colleagues in the USA.
