Unlike white fat, which stores energy, brown fat cells burn calories, producing heat as a byproduct. For years, it was believed this process relied on a single pathway. More recently, researchers discovered a parallel pathway, but how it became activated remained a mystery.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/fat_burning.jpg?itok=x4f_yZOd" width="160" height="90" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">12 </span><span class="month">May </span><span class="year">2026</span></div></div></div></div></div> Tue, 12 May 2026 13:38:51 +0000 webfull 218081 at /channels New therapeutic strategies show promise against a hard-to-treat prostate cancer /channels/channels/news/new-therapeutic-strategies-show-promise-against-hard-treat-prostate-cancer-369105 <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>A new study has uncovered promising therapeutic strategies against one of the deadliest forms of prostate cancer.</p> <p>91 researchers at the Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Institute (GCI) identified a mechanism driving neuroendocrine prostate cancer, a rare and highly aggressive subtype for which there currently are no effective treatment options.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/vg_headshot_researcher.jpg?itok=lG6obYZg" width="160" height="107" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">20 </span><span class="month">November </span><span class="year">2025</span></div></div></div></div></div> Thu, 20 Nov 2025 14:05:40 +0000 webfull 213453 at /channels
