Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have identified key aspects within the mechanism behind DNA repair in our bodies. For the primary time, they showed that the “proofreading” portion of the DNA replicating enzyme polymerase epsilon ensured secure termination of replication at damaged portions of the DNA strand, ultimately saving DNA from severe damage. This recent […]
In 2019, there have been almost 14 thousand diabetes-related deaths within the UK. That number looks set to rise. Britain currently has 4.3 million registered diabetics, but latest evaluation from London Medical Laboratory has revealed there are more likely to be over a million Brits affected by undiagnosed type 2 diabetes. Untreated diabetes can result in blindness, […]
Researchers on the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have identified the structure of a special transporter present in red blood cells and the way it interacts with drugs. Details on the findings, which were reported within the September 7 issue of Nature Structural & Molecular Biology [DOI: 10.1038/s41594-023-01085-6], may lead to the event […]
Dementia is a gaggle of brain diseases that share similar symptoms, corresponding to memory, language, orientation, and behavioral issues. Vascular dementia generally develops within the elderly, affecting between 1% and 4% of individuals over the age of 65, in keeping with Alzheimer’s Switzerland. It’s attributable to vascular lesions that disrupt the blood supply to the […]
Scientists have created a brand new test for identifying people prone to developing acute myeloid leukaemia and related cancers, years before they do. The brand new platform, ‘MN-predict’, will allow doctors and scientists to discover those in danger and to design latest treatments to forestall them from developing these potentially lethal cancers. Researchers on the […]
The transition from psoriasis to PsA – and the early diagnosis of PsA – is of considerable scientific and clinical interest. People typically have psoriatic skin disease for a decade or more before they start to experience the joint involvement of PsA. Understanding more concerning the natural history and trajectory of this disease will assist […]
