Compounds from two Nigerian vegetables found to inhibit enzymes implicated in neurodegenerative diseases
Neurodegenerative disease is a term used for conditions that affect the function of neurons in the human brain. Unlike other cells in the body, neurons, or nerve cells, are incapable of cell reproduction. Once neurons are injured, degenerate or die, the body cannot replace them with new ones. This is why neurodegenerative diseases are debilitating and very […]

Anti-diarrheal properties of Osyris quadripartita (wild tea plant)
In this study, Ethiopian researchers investigated the antidiarrheal activity of Osyris quadripartita (wild tea plant) hydroalcoholic leaf extract using different mouse models. Their findings were published in the Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine. The leaves of O. quadripartita are traditionally used to treat diarrhea in different parts of Ethiopia. However, the efficacy of this natural medicine has not been […]

Alkaloids from Lasianthera africana and Gongronema latifolium found to prevent neurodegeneration
In this study, researchers at the Federal University of Technology Akure in Nigeria investigated the in vitro modulatory effect of alkaloids obtained from two commonly consumed vegetables in southern Nigeria. Their findings were published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements. Plants produce alkaloids as part of their defense mechanism against herbivores. Alkaloids are known to have […]

Does the solar system have a “Planet Nine”? Researchers say it’s a possibility
A planet orbiting a pair of stars more than 300 light-years away may offer clues to a mystery object called “Planet Nine” that is thought to reside in the outskirts of the solar system. Scientists from the University of California, Berkeley and the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile performed the first complete orbital measurements on a Jupiter-like exoplanet whose orbit is unusually […]

Do you have a median artery? Researchers say it’s proof humans are still evolving
Researchers say humans are still evolving, and they’re evolving at a faster rate than at any point within the past three centuries. The increased prevalence of a structure known as the median artery — which typically regresses in the second month of gestation — in people born by the end of the 20th century is proof of […]

Study suggests the ice age was caused by global cooling after a giant asteroid collision in space
An international team of researchers suggests that a massive asteroid collision in space may have triggered the ice age 460 million years ago. In a study published in the journal Science Advances, the researchers said that the breakup of an enormous asteroid sent massive amounts of debris whirring through the solar system, shrouding Earth with a thick blanket […]

Modern Iceland’s climate is colder with more ice than any other time in the last 8000 years except the 1800s
A wealth of new research in glacier and sea ice extent show modern Iceland is 2-4°C colder than all of the last 8000 years except for a slightly colder late 19th century. Even the 1700s were warmer with less ice than today in and around Iceland. (Article by Kenneth Richard republished from NoTricksZone.com) A new […]

Plastic face shields can’t prevent COVID-19 transmission, experts warn
Plastic face shields have become a popular alternative to face masks throughout the pandemic. Besides being less restrictive than a face mask, a face shield allows people to see the wearer’s mouth. This helps people who are hard of hearing understand the wearer better when communicating. However, new research reveals that a face shield does not […]

Researchers detect ripples in space and time from a “Pac-Man” black hole that swallowed a neutron star 900 million years ago
Spacetimes ripples that recently passed through Earth may have been caused by a black hole swallowing a neutron star 900 million years ago, according to Australian researchers. Studies are still underway to confirm the merger. But initial findings suggest that a black hole going “Pac-Man” on a neutron star likely caused the gravitational waves detected on […]
