New flu drug aims to keep you in a 'Goldilocks zone' of lung inflammation
Posted by ArielTechGeek 418 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
If you’ve ever caught the flu, you’ve more than likely been infected with the Influenza A virus (IAV). Compared to the Influenza B virus, infection with the A type often produces more severe symptoms. But, while many of us have experienced the fever and chills, headache and muscle aches, fatigue, sore throat and cough of a run-of-the-mill flu, severe infection with IAV is a different, potentially
Radioactive ‘fruit sugar’ lights up cancer and inflammation
Posted by ArielTechGeek 468 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
A radioactive form of fructose, a natural sugar found in fruit, given to mice lit up areas of cancer and inflammation on a diagnostic medical scan. The researchers say the approach makes diseases easier to spot than current techniques and opens the door to new avenues of early detection.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Sugar, Diagnosis, Diagnostic devices, Cancer, University of Ott
Inflammation or infection: The debate over COVID’s effect on the brain
Posted by ArielTechGeek 471 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Perhaps one of the most persistent debates around COVID has been the reason behind the disease’s neurological symptoms. Ever since SARS-CoV-2 emerged in late 2019 the virus has been known for its novel effects on the brain: Extreme fatigue, cognitive abnormalities, loss of smell and taste, and brain fog. But exactly how is it causing these symptoms?Continue ReadingCategory: Health & Wellbeing
Overactive inflammation in the brain linked to increased suicide risk
Posted by ArielTechGeek 567 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
A first-of-its-kind study has identified overactive inflammation and loss of critical protective mechanisms in the brain as potential contributors to suicide risk. The findings could lead to the use of anti-inflammatory medications as a way of reducing this risk, especially where suicidal ideation can be ascertained early.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Brain, BioLogic, Inflammato

In an effort to find new treatments to halt the progression of Alzheimer's disease, scientists at The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have landed on a molecule that can put the brakes on a process that causes brain inflammation and improved memory.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: MIT, Alzheimer's Disease, Dementia, A
Lung immune cells “trained” to remove debris that causes inflammation
Posted by ArielTechGeek 648 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Researchers have discovered that lung-based immune cells can be "trained" to remember a previously encountered pathogen, making them more efficient at clearing out the cellular debris that accumulates during infection and reducing inflammation.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Lung, Infections, The Immune System, Inflammatory, University of Illinois
Microplastics trigger brain inflammation, found in heart tissue
Posted by ArielTechGeek 661 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Microplastics are everywhere, including being found to enter our bodies through cavities exposed to the outside world. Two new studies have further examined the effect of microplastics on our health, with one finding that they cause brain inflammation and the second finding them in the heart, a completely enclosed organ.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Microplastic, Brain, Heart, D
Inflammation found to slow the progression of the malaria parasite
Posted by ArielTechGeek 664 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
It’s not often that inflammation gets a good rap. It’s been linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and autoimmune diseases. But a new study may have uncovered a positive use for the body’s natural response to irritants. Researchers have found that inflammation leads to changes in the makeup of blood plasma that slow the growth of the parasites that cause malaria. They hope their discovery may
