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 …
Bioceramic embed can animate skull bone recovery Kumar Jeetendra | October 19, 2020 A bioceramic implant has proved to stimulate regeneration of natural skull bone, so that even large cranial defects can be repaired in a way which hasn’t been possible before. Reconstructing major bone and soft-tissue injuries in the skull after an accident or treatment of a brain tumor, blood clot, or hemorrhage is a difficult challenge. …
Researchers propose that antimalarial medications could be repurposed to treat COVID-19 Kumar Jeetendra | October 20, 2020 An international group of researchers believe there is enough evidence that anti-malarial drugs could be repurposed to treat COVID-19 and they need to be evaluated for efficacy in clinical trials. The review article, published online in Trends in Parasitology, summarizes the evidence for its antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties of particular anti-malarial drugs which could play …

Coating implant material with artificial bone unresolved issue irritation Kumar Jeetendra | October 23, 2020 The history of implants can be traced back all of the way to A.D. 1 when wrought iron dental implants were used in Ancient Rome. Despite the long term, however, there are still lots of problems associated with implant processes like a loose implant resulting from slow integration into the bone tissue or an inflammation …
Oral bacteria persevere on squandered biting gums for quite a long time Kumar Jeetendra | October 24, 2020 Researchers from the Institute of Integrative Systems Biology (I2SysBio), a joint centre of the University of Valencia and the CSIC, have examined the bacteria from used chewing gums from five different states. The research, just published in the journal Scientific Reports, shows that the bacterial load of gum changes in a matter of weeks and …
Oregon scientists uncover sub-atomic instruments that produce DNA harm in sperm Kumar Jeetendra | October 25, 2020 University of Oregon biologists have used the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans to identify molecular mechanisms that produce DNA damage in sperm and contribute to male infertility following exposure to heat. In humans, the optimal temperature for sperm production is just below body temperature, in a range of approximately 90-95 degrees F. Human studies have found …
Study uncovers new and basic subtleties of how photoreceptors work Kumar Jeetendra | October 26, 2020 Moving around in the half-light is difficult but not impossible. To help us in this undertaking we have the rods, a type of light-sensitive cells (photoreceptors) present in the retina of vertebrates, capable of detecting very low lights that allow to move about even in poorly lit cellars or caves. They are biological wonders capable …
Researchers devise new technique to plan HIV’s sweet shield in remarkable detail Kumar Jeetendra | October 26, 2020 Scientists from Scripps Research and Los Alamos National Laboratory have devised a method for mapping in unprecedented detail the thickets of slippery sugar molecules which help protect HIV from the immune system. Mapping these shields will give researchers a more comprehensive comprehension of why dinosaurs respond to some spots on the virus but not others, …
Omega-3 rich nourishments improve forecast in patients with myocardial dead tissue Kumar Jeetendra | October 27, 2020 A team of researchers from the Germans Trias I Pujol Hospital and Research Institute (IGTP) and the Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute (IMIM) has shown that regularly consuming foods full of omega-3 fatty acids, from the animal and vegetable roots, strengthens the heart’s membranes and helps improve the prognosis in the event of a …
Study recognizes 17 new genes that could be focused for treatment of psoriasis, dermatitis Kumar Jeetendra | October 27, 2020 A Swedish study has identified 17 new genes which could be targeted for therapy of psoriasis and eczema, two frequent hereditary skin diseases with no cure. Pelin Sahlén, senior lecturer in KTH Royal Institute of Technology, says the joint KTH-Karolinska Institutet research team mapped 118 gene targets regarding the skin ailments, psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, …
Myeloid cells can smother insusceptible reaction, advance cerebrum metastasis Kumar Jeetendra | October 28, 2020 Scientists have long thought that the brain protects itself from an aggressive immune response to keep inflammation down. However, that evolutionary management may work against it when a cancer cell tries to spread to the brain, researchers at the University of Notre Dame have found. In recently published research in the journal Cell, researchers showed …
