- Read more about Nanobiomed Inc® Discovered a New Nuclear Staining Molecule and Eco-Friendly Natural Source for Cancer Diagnostics: Prextrolin®
Nanobiomed Inc®., a nanomedicine and biotechnology company announced its leading-edge development of a new molecule for use in tissue and cancer diagnostics.
- Read more about Administering additional antibiotic prior to C-section reduces infection rates by 50%
“Infection during pregnancy and during the postpregnancy period is a major health problem for both mom and baby, and a common underlying cause of death,” said Alan T. N. Tita, M.D., Ph.D.; professor in the UAB Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine and the Center for Women’s Reproductive Health, and principal investigator of the study. “Women who have a C-section are at significantly increased risk for infection compared to those who deliver vaginally. A major national goal is to reduce the risk of infection after surgery, and this finding is the culmination of investigative work over decades.”
- Read more about Omega-3 fatty acid called DHA, can stop a known trigger of lupus
A team of Michigan State University researchers has found that consuming an omega-3 fatty acid called DHA, or docosahexaenoic acid, can stop a known trigger of lupus and potentially other autoimmune disorders.
- Read more about Research into fly development provides insights into blood vessel formation
Researchers working with flies at IRB Barcelona describe that the concentration of some small intracellular organelles determines the branching capacity of tracheal cells. Tracheal cells are analogous to the cells that form blood vessels in the human body. The inhibition or stimulation of new blood vessels has implications in cancer and in tissue regeneration.
- Read more about Tuberculosis Could be controlled by vitamin D
Research in Veterinary Science reveals that vitamin D supplementation reduces the incidence and severity of tuberculosis (TB) in wild boar and red deer. The pilot study of 40 animals was conducted by a multidisciplinary team of scientists from the University of Surrey (UK), Universidad de Extremadura (Spain), and SME Ingulados (Spain).
- Read more about Some Herbal and Dietary Supplements Can Be Toxic to the Live
A new review based on a research symposium sponsored by the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease and the National Institutes of Health highlights the potentially damaging effects of herbal and dietary supplements (HDSs) on the liver.
- Read more about Antibiotics developed in 1960s show promise for TB therapy
First generation cephalosporins antibiotics introduced as a treatment against bacterial infections in 1963 now show promise for tuberculosis (TB) therapy, according to new research published in Scientific Reports.
- Read more about Skin cancer: drug combination could improve immunotherapy
The results of studies involving researchers from the MedUni Vienna and Vienna General Hospital Comprehensive Cancer Center (CCC) show that the effect of immunotherapy on malignant melanoma (black skin cancer) can be improved by combining it with other cancer treatments. However, the results also show that this combination can lead to an increase in side-effects. The CCC is therefore now looking for ways to improve the side-effect profile and is testing these approaches in two upcoming studies.
- Read more about Broadly neutralizing HIV antibodies pave the way for vaccine
A small number of people infected with HIV produce antibodies with an amazing effect: Not only are the antibodies directed against the own virus strain, but also against different sub-types of HIV that circulate worldwide. Researchers from the University of Zurich and University Hospital Zurich now reveal which factors are responsible for the human body forming such broadly neutralizing HIV antibodies, thereby opening new avenues for the development of an HIV vaccine.
- Read more about Blood pressure drug may boost effectiveness of lung cancer treatment
A blood pressure drug may make a type of lung cancer treatment more effective, suggests a new study.The early-stage research, conducted on human cells in the lab and on mice, was led by scientists from Imperial College London and Fudan University in China, and is published in the journal Cell Discovery.
