Coronavirus found to suppress immune response, but this new therapy can restore immune function
Complete suppression of immune response may be the real cause of death among coronavirus patients, claim two new studies led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis (WUSTL). Previous reports point to severe inflammation as the main cause of organ damage suffered by patients with severe COVID-19. But autopsy findings tell a different story: […]

Insulin resistance happens in the gut – but how? Researchers explain
Insulin resistance is a metabolic condition often studied in relation to diabetes. This is because it is considered a precursor to Type 2 diabetes. According to a group of researchers from Canada and the U.S., obesity can bring about insulin resistance, and it all starts in the gut. Published in the journal Nature Communications, their groundbreaking finding […]

Is this why kids are so happy? Researchers discover anti-inflammatory fat in soil-dwelling bacterium that can help relieve stress
A fat molecule found in Mycobacterium vaccae, a soil-dwelling bacterium, is behind its potent anti-stress effects, according to a recent study. Published in Psychopharmacology, it revealed that a lipid called 10(Z)-hexadecenoic acid in M. vaccae inhibits inflammation in the brain. The researchers behind the study also reported that cells became more resistant to inflammation upon exposure to the said […]

Animal study finds that Dendrobium orchids can help regulate immunity
The human body has an innate ability to ward off diseases and infections, thanks to the immune system. The main job of this system is to protect the body from harmful substances, like microbial pathogens, and cell changes that can cause disease. Many factors can affect the function of the immune system. A poor diet, medications and […]

Scientists discover chemical compound that can help fight pancreatic cancer
Scientists have found a chemical compound that can help the immune system fight pancreatic cancer. A recent study by researchers at the Washington University School of Medicine (WUSM) in St. Louis and Rush University in Chicago promises new hope for people who are fighting this deadly disease. Pancreatic cancer is one of the most challenging cancers to treat. Traditional treatments such as chemotherapy […]

Polysaccharide from Dendrobium sonia can benefit patients with immunosuppressive conditions
In this study, Chinese researchers investigated the immunomodulatory activity of a polysaccharide isolated from Dendrobium sonia. They discussed their findings in an article published in the Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines. The aim of the study was to evaluate the potential medicinal value of D. sonia, a popular orchid hybrid. To achieve this, the researchers extracted, purified […]

Coronavirus hijacks immune cells to create cytokine storms, says new study
Scientists continue to be baffled by the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), especially how it “hijacks” certain cells of the body. A new study from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai suggests that SARS-CoV-2 – the coronavirus strain behind the current pandemic – can inhibit one virus-fighting set of genes but allow another set to launch – a […]

Immune cells ATTACK the aging brain and release a substance that hinders new nerve cell production, report scientists
One of the defining features of the brain that sets it apart from all other organs of the human body (except muscles) is that it is made up of cells that cannot regenerate. The nerve cells in the brain called neurons are terminally differentiated, meaning that, unlike skin cells or blood cells, they cannot reproduce. So […]

Researchers find biomarker for identifying chronic fatigue syndrome
People who have chronic fatigue syndrome finally have a way to prove their condition exists – something they’ve been looking for the longest time. Researchers from Stanford Medicine have developed a blood test that offers an accurate and reliable way to diagnose the disease. “Too often, this disease is categorized as imaginary,” explained Ron Davis, a professor of biochemistry at […]

Microglia protect the central nervous system from inflammation and could hold the key to treating retina disease
Microglia help protect the central nervous system from disease-causing pathogens and issues. Recent research has revealed that these cells determine whether or not other immune cells might enter the brain. Managing these gatekeeper cells might offer a way to control the risk of inflammation that damage the retina. Researchers at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear (MEE) hospital discovered […]
