#Peripheral #neuropathy involves #nerve damage that can cause numbness, tingling, pain, and mild muscle weakness in the legs and, sometimes, the arms.

📄This JAMA Patient Page describes common symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of peripheral neuropathy.

NCI-supported researchers identified metabolic changes in blood samples collected years before liver cancer diagnosis, offering new insights into who may be at higher risk. As we continue to prioritize precision medicine and cancer prevention, discoveries like this may help inform future strategies for earlier detection. https://t.co/yYdtRFaUT5

[News from Science @NewsfromScience]

For decades, biology textbooks have enshrined a simple rule: DNA is made by copying a template. After one enzyme unzips a DNA double helix into separate strands, another called a polymerase builds a complementary sequence, base by base, for each strand. Presto: two copies of the original DNA.

But research into how bacteria defend themselves from viruses now shows this synthesis rule isn’t absolute.

A team describes a bacterial enzyme that synthesizes DNA without a nucleic acid template, using its own structure as a guide.

Triple-negative breast cancer is the most aggressive form of the disease, and it often spreads to the brain. Treatment options remain limited, and outcomes for patients are often poor.
