BAT study dissects the toxicological effect of nicotine pocket items Kumar Jeetendra | September 28, 2020 New research by BAT suggests that contemporary oral goods (MOPs) revealed lower toxicity reactions in certain assays than traditional cigarettes. Scientists analyzed the toxicological impact of one of BAT’s nicotine pouch products, previously called Lyft and now called Velo, in an in vitro laboratory-based test. Velo was found to be less biologically active than cigarette …
Trial ALS drug shows potential to drag out patient endurance Kumar Jeetendra | October 18, 2020 An experimental medicine that was recently shown to slow the progression of the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), or Lou Gehrig’s disease, has now demonstrated the capacity to also prolong patient survival. The findings come from a clinical trial conducted by investigators at the Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for ALS at Massachusetts …
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 …
Smoking traditional cigarettes alongside e-cigarettes causes harmful wellbeing impacts Kumar Jeetendra | January 4, 2021 Smoking traditional cigarettes in addition to using e-cigarettes leads to harmful health effects like smoking cigarettes exclusively, according to new research published today in the American Heart Association’s flagship journal Circulation.

UH scientist attempting to recognize likely new therapeutic target for kidney sickness Kumar Jeetendra | January 14, 2021 In the past year, high serum suPAR levels also have been found to predict kidney and multiple organ failure in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. “FSGS is a particularly insidious kidney disease. In many patients, it inexorably leads to kidney failure and we don’t have much to offer to stop it, and worse still, in most …
Sulforaphane draws out life expectancy and healthspan of C. elegans through insulin/IGF-1 flagging Kumar Jeetendra | February 4, 2021 Aging-US released”Sulforaphane boosts C. elegans longevity and healthspan through DAF- 16/DAF-2 insulin/IGF-1 signaling” which reported that the broccoli-derived isothiocyanate sulforaphane inhibits inflammation, oxidative stress and cancer, but its impact on healthspan and longevity are unclear. The writers used the C. elegans nematode version and fed the wildtype and 9 mutant strains ±sulforaphane. Sulforaphane increased the …
Intense openness of lung tissue to vape airborne lesserly affects gene expressionthan cigarette smoke Kumar Jeetendra | March 21, 2021 A new peer-reviewed study published in the journal Toxicological Research & Application reveals acute exposure of a 3D human bronchial tissue model to e-cigarette aerosol has minimal impact on gene expression in contrast to smoke from combustible cigarettes. The study included sub-cytotoxic vulnerability to cells in a 3D human bronchial model (MucilAirTM) to nicotine-containing vape …
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 …
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 …
