Remedial got from turmeric shows guarantee in treating canine visual condition Kumar Jeetendra | September 5, 2020 Researchers in Texas A&M University have produced a curative derived from turmeric, a spice long-praised because of its natural anti-inflammatory properties, that shows promise in decreasing ocular inflammation in dogs suffering from uveitis, an inflammation of the eye that leads to pain and reduced vision. Uveitis — a frequent condition in dogs, humans, and other …
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 …
Rersearch shows quick period of vein rebuilding after aneurysm Kumar Jeetendra | January 26, 2021 Hitting a pothole on the road in only the wrong way might create a bulge on the tire, a weakened spot that will almost certainly result in an eventual flat tire. But what if that tire could immediately begin reknitting its rubber, strengthening the bulge and preventing it from bursting? That’s exactly what blood vessels …
UNSW builds up a clay based ink to 3D-print bone parts with living cells Kumar Jeetendra | January 26, 2021 3D printers may one day become a permanent fixture of the operating theatre after UNSW scientists showed they could print bone-like structures comprising living cells. Researchers from UNSW Sydney have developed a ceramic-based ink which may allow surgeons in the long run to 3D-print bone elements complete with living cells which could be used to …
Researchers concentrate how a single gene alteration may have isolated modern humans from extinct hominins Kumar Jeetendra | February 16, 2021 As a professor of pediatrics and molecular and cellular medicine at University of California San Diego School of Medicine, Alysson R. Muotri, PhD, has long studied how the brain develops and what goes wrong in neurological disorders. For nearly as long, he has also been curious about the evolution of the human brain -; what …
Hydrogel injection could help fix harm to the heart muscle after heart attack Kumar Jeetendra | February 19, 2021 Researchers at CÚRAM, the SFI Research Centre for Medical Devices based at NUI Galway, and BIOFORGE Lab, at the University of Valladolid in Spain, have developed an injectable hydrogel which might help repair and prevent additional damage to the heart muscle following a heart attack occasion. The results of their research have only been published …
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 …
Study maps design and system of a membrane enzyme that assumes part in inflammation, cancer Kumar Jeetendra | March 21, 2021 Most drugs operate via the membranes that surround the body’s cells. The analysis, which is printed in the journal Nature Communications, can make a significant contribution to the development of potential drugs. The cells’ equal to organs, the organelles, are enclosed by membranes. Embedded in the cell’s external and internal membranes are proteins that regulate …
Researchers discover proof that SARS-CoV-2 infects cells in the mouth Kumar Jeetendra | March 25, 2021 An international group of scientists has discovered evidence that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, infects cells in the mouth. While it’s well known that the upper airways and lungs are primary sites of SARS-CoV-2 disease, there are clues the virus can infect cells in different parts of the body, like the digestive system, blood …
Immunotherapy treatments for nephrological autoimmune illnesses may help treat serious Coronavirus Kumar Jeetendra | June 8, 2021 Various viruses and bacteria have been known to cause autoimmune diseases where there’s such a predisposition. This phenomenon also seems to play a major part SARS-CoV-2, especially in severe courses. The body’s own immune cells are activated, with the formation of autoantibodies that attack the body’s own healthy cell structures (proteins, autoantigens); deposits of immune …
