MAGA = Make Asbestos Great Again?

“ Trump's support for asbestos has been welcomed in Russia, a primary asbestos supplier to the US. In 2018, a Russian asbestos company began marketing asbestos with Trump's face and a seal reading "Approved by Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States."

"Mini-organ" boosts immune responses: so called tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are catalysators of the immune system. These round structures have an inner core of antigen-presenting cells and a broader rim of effector T cells. The presence of TLS is associated with treatment response to #immunotherapy in various cancers (e.g. #sarcoma, #melanoma, #lungcancer). But what triggers their existence? And: how can the neo-formation of TLS be triggered in cancer patients? Inducing TLS formation could be an exciting new avenue for immunotherpies, read more in our article here:

Lung cancer doesn't only affect smokers. As the number of smokers is declining, the proportion of lung cancer cases occurring in people who have never smoked is increasing. This type of cancer differs from that of smokers. And female non-smokers are twice as likely to develop it as men who never smoked. So, what causes it? I explored this topic in my piece for BBC Future.
