High-tech tracking systems eliminates drug discovery

admin -
A team has developed a large-scale drug screening technique that can track target molecule behavior within cells. The researchers verified their technique by testing the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a known target for cancer drugs. Their drug screening resulted in the identification of the known drugs, as well as others that were not previously

Shaping potential health: How baby gut bacteria development matters

admin -
A new study has unveiled fascinating insights into the development of the infant gut microbiota and its profound implications for long-term health. This extensive study, involving nearly 1,000 infants' fecal samples and comprehensive metadata on lifestyle, health, and parental health, provides a groundbreaking understanding of how early gut microbiota development can shape future health outcomes.

Premature infants may have a significant impact on brain development if a popular steroid treatment.

admin -
Antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) are an established therapy for pregnant women at risk of preterm birth. Researchers have found that babies given ACS had notably smaller volumes of two key brain regions, the bilateral amygdalae and caudate nuclei, which are essential for emotion processing and motor control, respectively. The findings suggest that doctors should adjust ACS

Experts discover key to preventing degeneration in Parkinson’s and related problems

admin -
A team of researchers has uncovered a groundbreaking mechanism in the formation of harmful protein aggregates that lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's Disease. The team, led by Professor Norifumi Shioda and Associate Professor Yasushi Yabuki, identified for the first time that unique RNA structures called G-quadruplexes (G4s) play a central role in promoting

Children’s learning and memory are harmed by exposure to specific sources of air pollutants.

admin -
A new study involving 8,500 children from across the United States has revealed that a form of air pollution, largely the product of agricultural emissions, is linked to poor learning and memory performance in 9- and 10-year-olds. The specific pollutant, ammonium nitrate, is also implicated in Alzheimer's and dementia risk in adults, suggesting that PM2.5

Education, profession, and success affect the risk of mental damage

Socioeconomic factors such as education, occupation, and wealth influence the likelihood of developing cognitive impairment or dementia in later life and whether a person is likely to recover, finds a new study. Socioeconomic factors such as education, occupation, and wealth influence the likelihood of developing cognitive impairment or dementia in later life and whether a

Closing in on Parkinson’s Disease proteins in extracellular vesicles in the blood

admin -
Brain disorders like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's Disease start to develop in patients much earlier than when their first clinical symptoms appear. Treating patients at these early stages could slow or even stop their disease, but there is currently no way to diagnose brain disorders at those pre-symptomatic stages. Brain disorders like Parkinson's (PD) or Alzheimer's

Researchers challenge mobile reprogramming’s traditional theories.

admin -
A team led by researchers has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of reprogrammed neurons found by other researchers. Their findings refute the popular theory in cellular reprogramming that any developed cell can be induced to switch

Research indicates that chronic low back pain can be treated effectively with a medical online yoga program.

Researchers found that a 12-week therapeutic virtual yoga program for chronic low back pain can be a feasible, safe and effective treatment option. Cleveland Clinic researchers found that a 12-week therapeutic virtual yoga program for chronic low back pain can be a feasible, safe and effective treatment option. The findings are published in JAMA Network

The lateral premotor lobe of the brain is the center of a meta-learning process.

admin -
Researchers have discovered that the dorsal premotor cortex serves a 'meta-learning' function, overseeing and regulating physical movements. Once believed to be limited to movement planning, this region has now been shown, through computational modeling and brain stimulation, to also facilitate the retention and forgetting of motor memories. Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered that

Water grass has more credibility as a possible security for global food vulnerability.

Is the floating freshwater fern commonly called Carolina azolla the potential answer to global food insecurity or a possible threat to humanity? On the heels of a study published earlier this year on the plant's nutrition and digestibility, a team learned of concerns about the plant's potential toxin content. The researchers joined an international effort

Early childhood and incontinence drastically lowers the risk of midlife severe disease by restricting sugar intake.

admin -
Children who experienced sugar restrictions during their first 1,000 days after conception had up to 35% lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes and as much as 20% less risk of hypertension as adults. The researchers used contemporary data from the U.K. Biobank, a database of medical histories and genetic, lifestyle and other disease risk
