UTSW Partners on Study That Could Lead to Earlier Detection of Ovarian Cancer
by Lance Murray | Jun 17, 2024
Researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and UT Southwestern analyzed T-cell receptors in nearly 500 blood samples from pre-diagnostic patients with ovarian cancer. The results point to the potential of testing for biomarkers 2 to 4 years before most cases of HGOC are currently diagnosed.

UTSW Researchers Discover Liver Hormone Helps Drunk Mice Sober Up Quicker
by Lance Murray | Mar 7, 2023
Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas have discovered that could lead to an effective treatment for acute alcohol intoxications.
The researchers reported in a new study that a shot of a liver-produced hormone called FGF21 sobered up mice that had passed out from alcohol. It allowed them to regain consciousness and coordination much faster than those that didn’t receive the treatment, UT Southwestern said....
