New study spotlights effective strategy against COVID-19 variants: the E7 monoclonal antibody

In a recent study published in the Science Advances Journal, a group of researchers developed potent monoclonal antibodies from a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) survivor vaccinated with BNT162b2 that targets the receptor binding domain (RBD) of human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (huACE2)-dependent sarbecovirus. Study: Potent pan huACE2-dependent sarbecovirus neutralizing monoclonal antibodies isolated from a BNT162b2-vaccinated […]

Analyzing process of evolution and adaptation through acquiring new mutations

The influenza (flu) virus is constantly undergoing a process of evolution and adaptation through acquiring new mutations. Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have added a new layer of understanding to explain why and how flu viruses change. The “survival of the accessible” model provides a complementary view to the more widely recognized “survival […]

Blood test may help identify patients at risk for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy

A new multi-center study led by doctors at Boston Medical Center and Columbia University found that having a genetic variant in the prealbumin gene alone is not sufficient for diagnosis of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy in older Black patients. Published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, researchers discovered that a blood test that measures […]

Daily prune consumption has promising effects on biomarkers related to cardiovascular health

A pair of new studies presented as abstracts today at the American Society of Nutrition (ASN) annual meeting report that daily prune consumption has promising effects on several biomarkers related to cardiovascular health. Conducted in postmenopausal women and men 55 years and older, the studies reveal: In men, long-term prune consumption improved HDL cholesterol and […]

Researchers uncover novel targets for treatment of schistosomiasis

The worms that cause schistosomiasis (Schistosoma mansoni) are unusual in several ways, especially the fact that male and female adults must stay paired together throughout their lives for reproduction to be successful. Females may produce as many as 3,000 eggs per day. Approximately half reach the host’s gut or bladder. The rest are swept away […]

Fly-to-bedside resource offers new hope for COVID-19 treatments

Millions of deaths and ongoing illnesses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have prompted scientists to seek new ways of understanding how viruses so skillfully enter and reprogram human cells. Urgent innovations leading to the development of new therapies are needed since virologists predict that future deadly viruses and pandemics may again emerge from the coronavirus […]

Study reveals molecular mechanisms of H. pylori-induced gastric carcinogenesis

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infections are commonly associated with abdominal pain, bloating, and acidity. Clinical evidence suggests that infection with H. pylori cagA+ strains dramatically increases the risk of developing gastric cancer. A specialized protein delivered by H. pylori to the host, oncoprotein “CagA,” has been shown to interact with multiple host proteins and promote […]

Breast cancer and MEN1: exploring the connection

In a recent publication in the PLOS One Journal, researchers evaluated the role of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 1 (MEN1) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in breast cancer. Their results revealed that MEN1 gene expression was significantly higher in tumor tissue when compared to normal cells, with expression primarily localized in the nuclear region. MEN1 expression was […]

Macrophages may play a major role in the development of atrial fibrillation

Current treatments for atrial fibrillation (AFib), a common heart condition characterized by fast and irregular beats that can lead to stroke and heart failure, have multiple side effects and are ineffective for preventing AFib recurrence. New research led by investigators at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and published in Science reveals that certain immune cells play […]

How does SARS-CoV-2 affect the placenta during pregnancy?

In a recent study published in Med, researchers examine host responses to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) within the placenta using transcriptomics. Study: SARS-CoV-2 niches in human placenta revealed by spatial transcriptomics. Image Credit: SciePro / Shutterstock.com Background Previous studies have provided limited insights into SARS-CoV-2 replication during pregnancy, despite using placenta single-cell transcriptomes.
