Sharks may be key to developing effective COVID-19 treatments

To combat viruses, one of humankind's oldest threats, researchers are studying predators with the oldest adaptive immune system in the animal kingdom: sharks.

Study discovers new antibiotics effective against drug-resistant tuberculosis

Every year, 1.5 million people die from infections caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Antibiotics are available to treat tuberculosis, but the bacteria has evolved multi-drug resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and fully drug-resistant (TDR) strains in recent years.

Researchers determine intracellular antibodies to cure diseases

Mermaid Bio GmbH of Munich, Germany, and WEHI of Melbourne, Australia, recently announced cooperation to identify and develop a unique class of therapeutic candidates that modify misbehaving proteins inside cells that can cause a variety of diseases.

Study reveals that gene variant regulates protein level to prevent blood clots in the lungs

The probability of blood clots in the lungs of very sick COVID-19 patients is influenced by a gene variant in the natural immune system. This is demonstrated in a new study published in Nature Immunology by researchers from Uppsala University and Karolinska Institutet.

Researchers analyze the involvement of immune cells in lung cancer survival

Lung cancer affects approximately 48,500 persons in the United Kingdom every year. New treatments are urgently needed because only around 20% of patients live 5 years after diagnosis, and it is the leading cause of cancer death.

Study uncovers how CD8+ T cells can divide and produce two distinct daughter cells

An immunological problem has been addressed by scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Despite being genetically identical, a CD8+ T cell can divide and produce two functionally different daughter cells.

Cancer biomarkers relying on methylation could forecast tumor type

In cancer management, biomarkers are commonly used to guide treatment decisions and evaluate patient outcomes.

Immune-boosting drugs with antibiotics may reduce the health risks of fungal infections

Patients are more susceptible to fungal infections because the immune system in the gut is disrupted when patients are given antibiotics in the hospital.

18 May 2022

New supramolecular CRISPR–Cas9 carrier supports much effective genome editing

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and their accompanying protein, CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9), several years ago, made international news as a game-changing genome editing system.

Research sheds light on mechanism for skin cell death, likely to help treat cancer

Researchers at Emory University have uncovered a mechanism for skin cell death that might lead to novel therapies for “flesh-eating” infections, alopecia, hives, and possibly even melanoma, the deadliest type of skin cancer.

Stress helps remove the formation of toxic proteins in dementia

Recently, researchers have discovered a novel method that could help avoid the formation of protein tangles, which are typical in dementia.

12 May 2022

Study shows new potential target for CAR T cells to inhibit solid tumors

CAR T therapy, or chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, has revolutionized the treatment of some blood cancers, allowing patients with relapsed or refractory disease to live longer and better lives.
