In a prospective study involving 1,785 individuals from four countries, the PANXEON exosome-based biomarker, combined with carbohydrate antigen 19-9 levels, achieves high sensitivity for the detection of early-stage pancreatic cancer.

Tissue patterning events of early human embryo development, including an embryo-disc with primitive streak-like structures, are captured using an in vitro model where embryonic stem cells are cultured with extra-embryonic cell types.

Author Correction: Inactivating SnRK1β1A promotes broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice

Nature, Published online: 20 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10572-x

A fungal long non-coding RNA from Magnaporthe oryzae translocates into rice cells to sequester a host microRNA that normally represses PKR1, a negative immunity regulator, thereby facilitating infection and revealing a widespread RNA-based pathogen–host interaction mechanism.
