Study Explains Why Blood Clotting is Common in IBD Patients

About 3 million people in the U.S. live with irritable bowel disease (IBD), and its prevalence is rising. Unfortunately, there isn’t a cure for the condition at the moment. Many individuals with IBD develop clots in their blood and these can result in strokes and heart attacks. Now a new study has discovered possible reasons why these clots are common and suggests a possible way to address this problem while also reducing inflammation. The team, whose study author is Rebecca Mellema, explains that platelets in IBD patients are hyper-primed to clot at the smallest provocation. This is because the inbuilt…

Blocking Glioblastoma-Triggered Brain Damage Could Slow the Aggressive Tumor’s Growth

According to new research conducted by a team at University College London, blocking the brain damage caused by glioblastoma could keep the patient’s brain working better for a much longer time and also slow the pace at which the tumor grows. The study used a mouse model and found that when glioblastoma tumors are in their early stage, they damage axons (parts of the nerves in the brain). When this damage occurs, according to the findings of the researchers, the brain responds to this injury to its nerve cells by first breaking down and then removing those damaged axons from…

Pioneering Therapy Could Slow the Effects of Aging

A new groundbreaking therapy could slow down or even reverse aging by recharging body cells with new “batteries” that provide new energy for bodily function.

Minovia Therapeutics, a company based in Israel, is the first firm globally to test mitochondria transplantation in human beings as a way to help people remain younger for a longer time and also treat conditions that are regarded as incurable. Mitochondria are tiny organelles within cells, and…
