Weight-Loss Pill Instead of Injection: Finally, an Easy Way to Lose Weight?

—As of September 1, semaglutide will be available in Germany for the treatment of overweight and obesity in tablet form for the first time.

The market launch is likely to attract considerable interest – but anyone considering treatment should be aware of one thing first: the tablet is not a way to lose a few kilos, but a prescription medication for the treatment of a chronic disease.

A Ray of Hope in the Fight Against Cancer

—Cancer is the second leading cause of death in Germany. In the search for new therapeutic approaches that target the uncontrolled growth of tumor cells, a class of enzymes known as cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) has come into focus. This is because this family of enzymes plays a fundamental role in gene expression and cell division. An overview of the current state of research on the transcriptional regulation of CDKs and the prospects for cancer treatment was compiled by Prof. Matthias Geyer of the UKB in collaboration with Prof. Robert P. Fisher and has now been published.

Central Hub for Heart Repair Discovered Bonn study: Heart muscle interaction enables cardiac regeneration in the neonatal heart

—Researchers at the University Hospital of Bonn (UKB) and the University of Bonn have identified a previously unknown signaling pathway in the immune system that helps newborn heart cells survive and regenerate after injury. The findings could open new avenues for future therapies aimed at repairing damaged adult hearts after heart attacks or chronic cardiovascular disease. The study has now been published in the journal Cell Communication and Signaling (Springer Nature).
