Biology textbooks teach us that adult cell types remain fixed in the identity they have acquired upon differentiation. By inducing non-insulin-producing human pancreatic cells to modify their function to produce insulin in a sustainable way, researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, show for the first time that the adaptive capacity of our cells […]
Protection mechanism discovered: How the immune system protects against bowel cancer Again and again, it is pointed out how important it is to strengthen its defenses. A healthy immune system can fend off pathogens and diseases preserve. It may even protect against the most serious diseases such as colon cancer. One of the most common […]
Scientists from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Department of Medicine 3 — Rheumatology and Immunology, headed by Prof. Dr. Georg Schett, have now decrypted a molecular network that controls these processes and could in future provide a new way to treat organ scarring. The results show that the protein PU.1 causes pathological deposition of connective tissue. The […]
Almost a kiss killed: Baby struggled due to Herpes to be life In the UK, a year-old Baby almost died because it was infected by a kiss with herpes viruses. The child had to be treated for four days in the hospital. The parents to warn other people in front of it, kissing toddlers on […]
Researchers from the Catalonian Institute of Bioengineering (Instituto de Bioingeniería de Cataluña) and the Seville Chemical Research Institute (Instituto de Investigaciones Químicas de Sevilla) have described a new method for the transmission of electrons between proteins that refutes the evidence from experiments until now. This process, involved in the generation of energy in both animal […]
The intestines with fermented vegetables a boost Earlier vegetables was fermented to make it for the cold Season durable. Today, the Ferment is appreciated but also because of its good compatibility and aromatic taste. The vegetables are not only more durable, but it also strengthens the intestines and the immune system. Daily eat more vegetables […]
Experimental Medicine extended the lives of mice Into old age young, healthy and full of energy, a dream of mankind, is, so far, only a utopia. This could change in the future, because recent research dealing with treatments that can slow down the aging process and perhaps even stop. In a recent study, Researchers were […]
Experts find cause of chronic fatigue syndrome There are some people who suffer from the so-called chronic fatigue syndrome. So far, however, was still unclear, thus this disease is actually triggered. Researchers found out now that an overactive immune system seems to be the cause of the disease. The scientists of the King’s College London, […]
Scientists at Kyushu University and Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan have developed a technique that enables analysis of DNA-protein interactions using very small numbers of cells, ranging from 100 to 1,000. Their method could capture previously unexamined epigenomic information, facilitate biomarker discovery and open new avenues for precision medicine. A collaborative study by researchers […]
When bacteria or viruses enter the body, proteins on their surfaces are recognized and processed to activate T cells, white blood cells with critical roles in fighting infections. During T-cell activation, a molecular complex known as the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) moves to a central location on the surface of the T-cell. Microtubules have several important […]
