CBD could lessen lung harm brought about by COVID-19 Kumar Jeetendra | October 19, 2020 One way CBD appears to reduce the”cytokine storm” that damages the lungs and kills many individuals with COVID-19 is by enabling an increase in levels of a natural peptide called apelin, which is proven to reduce inflammation and whose levels are dramatically reduced in the face of this storm. Dental College of Georgia and Medical …
Blood vessel deformities start in vein cells Kumar Jeetendra | November 3, 2020 In the condition called cavernoma, lesions appear in a cluster of blood vessels in the brain, spinal cord or retina. Researchers from Uppsala University can now reveal, at molecular level, these changes originate in vein cells. This new understanding of the condition creates possibility of developing better treatments for patients. The study was published in …
Compounds in green and black tea relax blood vessels by activating ion channel proteins Kumar Jeetendra | March 9, 2021 A new study from the University of California, Irvine shows that chemicals in both black and green tea relax blood vessels by activating ion channel proteins in the blood vessel wall. The discovery helps explain the antihypertensive properties of tea and could lead to the design of new blood pressure-lowering medications. Released in Cellular Physiology …
New Stem cell conveying hydrogel could assist the heart with recuperating myocardial ischemia Kumar Jeetendra | August 11, 2021 When blood vessels that feed the heart become blocked, damage to the heart muscle can occur and this can affect cardiac function. By stimulating the formation of new blood vessels, a new stem-cell-carrying gel helps mice overcome this condition called myocardial Infarction. The stem cell delivery system was developed by scientists from Kansai University, Japan. …
New framework empowers programmed examination of biomedical recordings caught by microscopy Kumar Jeetendra | February 14, 2022 Researchers at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) have developed a system based on computer vision techniques that allows automatic analysis of biomedical videos captured by microscopy in order to characterize and describe the behavior of the cells that appear in the images. These new techniques developed by the UC3M engineering team have been …
