In a recent study, scientists led by Professor Stefan Müller from the Institute of Biochemistry II at Goethe University studied a specific form of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The disease occurs primarily in adulthood and is ofte
American scientists wrote in the latest issue of "Molecular Therapy" that they recently developed a mature mouse model and used gene therapy for the first time to restore the hearing of an aged animal model. The latest method is expected to be applie
"Nature Communication" reported on the 30th a method of making artificial virus-like vectors that can enter human cells to perform specific tasks, such as gene editing. This large-capacity, customizable nanomaterial brings new hope for future gene th
An international team of researchers in Sweden and France has successfully developed a way to kill an aggressive brain tumor called glioblastoma. By blocking certain functions in cells with docking molecules, researchers can make cancer die of stress
The reporter recently learned from Liu Xindong's scientific research team of Jinfeng Laboratory in Chongqing High-tech Zone that the team discovered for the first time that IL-8 (interleukin-8) can improve the therapeutic effect of glioma immune chec
Scientists at Uppsala University in Sweden have developed a new method that can help immune cells enter tumors from blood vessels and kill cancer cells. This method is expected to improve the treatment of glioblastoma. The relevant paper was publishe
Many genetic diseases and birth defects in humans are determined early in embryonic development. However, due to the limitations of scientific research ethics and technical means, it is difficult for scientists to directly obtain early human embryos
University of California, Irvine (UCI) researchers have developed a DNA enzyme that can distinguish between the two strands of RNA within a cell and cut the strand associated with disease while leaving the healthy strand intact. This breakthrough "ge
Scientists in the United States have developed stem cells that do not elicit a damaging immune response and used them to make pancreatic cells to treat mice with type 1 diabetes. This achievement is an important step towards the use of "off-the-shelf
Just 10 minutes of exercising can increase the number of immune cells in the blood, which is important in the fight against cancer, two new studies by Finnish scientists have concluded. Relevant papers were published in the latest editions of Scienti
A Chinese study says that tracking the H3N2 canine influenza virus for 10 years has shown adaptions that allow the dog flu to recognize a human-like receptor.The virus originally spawned from the bird flu and has stabilized within canines, although t
Getting a vaccine to everyone who needs it is no easy task. Many vaccines require refrigeration, making it difficult to transport them to remote areas that lack infrastructure. A study published in "Nature Biotechnology" on the 24th proposed a soluti
Hair follicle melanin stem cells (McSCs) have a unique ability to move between the growth chambers of hair follicles, but as people age, the stem cells It becomes "stuck" so that it cannot mature and loses the ability to maintain its color. Related r
A research team led by Northwestern University and the University of Texas at Austin has developed the thinnest cardiac implant ever made of graphene, according to a paper published in the latest issue of the journal Advanced Materials.The new graphe
Working memory is the key to our ability to grasp and use information in a short period of time. Although the working memory of many people will decline significantly as the brain ages with age, in fact, nearly half of the people can not be affected
Liver cancer is the most common malignant tumor and one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. In addition to environmental factors, obesity, viral hepatitis and steatohepatitis may also trigger inflammation and promote compensatory cell pr
A few days ago, a study conducted by Swedish scholars found that eating too much salt can easily cause atherosclerosis in blood vessels, no matter whether you have high blood pressure or not.The study analyzed 10,778 adults with an average age of 58
Researchers at Oregon Health and Science University have created the largest ever map of genomic mutations in healthy human tissue following a zygote (the fusion of genetic material from two gametes), a scientific advance that could open new avenues
