Researchers distinguish aggravates that square replication of COVID-19 infection Kumar Jeetendra | July 12, 2020 Whilst the death toll from the COVID-19 pandemic mounts, the boffins worldwide carry on their push to create effective treatments and a vaccine to its highly infectious respiratory tract. The inhibitors demonstrate potent structural and chemical connections with an viral critical to this herpes virus’s capacity to proliferate. The very promising drug candidates – like …
Improving affectability of fluid biopsy utilizing ‘inexactly stacked’ identification layers Kumar Jeetendra | November 4, 2020 By detecting DNA fragments in body fluids like urine, some kinds of cancer may already be tracked in an early stage. But in order to capture them, detection sensitivity must be improved. Researchers at the University of Twente in The Netherlands (MESA+ Institute) use electrically charged polymers for this. Not only one layer of this, …
Free radicals might be significant for the brain to stay versatile Kumar Jeetendra | December 6, 2020 Reactive oxygen molecules, also known as”free radicals”, are generally considered dangerous. Researchers from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) and the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD) at TU Dresden published the findings in the journal Cell Stem Cell. The researchers focused on the”hippocampus”, a brain region that is regarded as the control center …
Researchers utilize human stem cells and bioengineered platform to construct entire working thymus Kumar Jeetendra | December 11, 2020 Their work is an important step towards having the ability to build artificial thymi that could be utilised as transplants. The thymus is an organ in the chest where T lymphocytes, which play a vital role in the immune system, mature. If the thymus doesn’t work properly or doesn’t form during foetal development in the …
IGC analysts get three out of six European Research Council grants Kumar Jeetendra | December 11, 2020 Since the establishment of the European Research Council in 2008, the IGC has secured 17 of the competitive grants (7 Beginning, 8 Consolidator and two Advanced). In 2021, with the beginning of the new grants awarded this month, it will have ten active grants. The year of 2020 marks a total of 327 researchers chosen …
Protein alteration adds to degeneration of neuronal populaces in Huntington’s infection Kumar Jeetendra | February 1, 2021 A study in which UB scientists have taken part states that alterations in the levels of one of those proteins, lamin B1, add to the degeneration of distinct brain neuronal populations in Huntington’s disease. Caused by a mutation in the huntingtin gene, this pathology features involuntary movements, cognitive deficit, and psychiatric disorders, and has no …
Scientists concentrate what the methylation of proteins means for various mitochondrial measures Kumar Jeetendra | February 21, 2021 Diseases of the cells’ energy supply can cause a range of serious ailments, but also appear to be connected to aging. More research is required on mitochondrial function to find future treatments. A new study involving researchers at Karolinska Institutet reveals how an important molecule inside the mitochondria affects their function in mice and fruit …
Novel device can add or eliminate sugar from proteins Kumar Jeetendra | March 12, 2021 Sugar has been called “evil,” “toxic,” and “poison.” But the body needs sugars, also. Sugar molecules help cells recognize and fight germs and viruses, shuttle proteins from cell to cell, and make sure those proteins function. Too much or too small can give rise to a range of maladies, including neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, diabetes, …
Researchers examine signal necrotic cells that prompt phagocytic cells to overwhelm the dying cell Kumar Jeetendra | May 8, 2021 As people keep their homes clean and clutter in check, a crew of cells within the body is in charge of clearing the waste that the body generates, including cells that are dying. The housekeeping cells remove unwanted material by a process called phagocytosis, which literally means’eating cells’ “Phagocytosis is quite important for the body’s …
New medication like compound could adequately hinder a critical step in malaria parasite life cycle Kumar Jeetendra | May 19, 2021 Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and the Latvian Institute of Organic Synthesis have designed a drug-like compound which effectively blocks a vital step in the malaria parasite life cycle and are working to develop this compound into a potential first of its type malaria treatment. While drugs and mosquito control have reduced levels of …
Small molecule drug can weaken the triggers of neuroinflammation, preclinical review shows Kumar Jeetendra | September 24, 2021 Neuroinflammation may cause worse outcomes in cases of stroke, injuries to the brain or injury, and can increase the severity of neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS, Parkinson’s, or Alzheimer’s. This suggests that reducing neuroinflammation might be an exciting new method to treat neurological disorders and neuropathic pain caused by neuroinflammation. In a preclinical study , …
Dietary components hold guarantee for working on the health and wellbeing of grown-ups Kumar Jeetendra | January 26, 2022 Research suggests that nutritional supplements that target specific mechanisms that are associated with age-associated cellular decay (AACD), have the potential to improve health and well-being for adults. “Cellular Nutrition and Its Influence on Age-Associated Cellular Decline,” the latest issue of The Gerontological Society of America’s What’s Hot newsletter with accompanying infographic, provides an overview of …
