Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by the formation of beta-amyloid plaques, which are clumps of protein pieces in the tissue between nerve cells and neurofibrillary tangles, which are twisted tau protein…
A mouse model of chronic stress, depression, and anxiety has been used to investigate their impact on the effectiveness of drugs that lower cholesterol. Research has shown that individuals suffering…
Researchers have identified a drug that inhibits the growth of meningiomas, the most common type of primary intercranial tumor. Meningiomas are tumors that form in the meninges, for which treatment…
It may be possible to treat anxiety and alcohol use disorder in adults using the gene-editing tool, CRISPR-dCas9. Researchers at the University of Illinois, Chicago have reported successful results using…
Cancer can easily spread from the site of the primary tumor to distal regions of the body when cancer cells detach from the tumor. They travel to distal sites via…
A new study conducted on human kidney organoids has identified a compound that may prevent permanent kidney damage and could halt the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Researchers at…
There have been many recorded cases of individuals who have previously had COVID-19 experiencing heart problems, a reduction in grey matter thickness in the brain, and problems with cognitive function,…
Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have identified a gene that codes for a protein that has a protective effect against the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons, which could serve…
Researchers at Yale School of Medicine have developed a new method for visualizing lung cells affected by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is the third leading cause of death…
