Research finds Alzheimer’s like changes in COVID-19 patients
This new research, published in Alzheimer’s & Dementia, suggested that the cognitive impairments of COVID-19 presented similar fundamental changes within the brain to those showing evidence of dementia.
Researchers map fifty thousand of the human genome’s cryptic “knots” of DNA
A landmark 2018 study, Garvan scientists were the first in the world to directly observe i-motifs inside living human cells using a new antibody tool they had developed, that was able specifically to bind to them.
Memories are passed down to offspring by bacterial cells
It is like the communication network that genes have among them to affect one another.
Our Brain Cells Are Being Flinged by Mitochondria with Their DNA
Mitochondria live in all our cells, but unlike other organelles, mitochondria sport their own DNA—a small, circular strand with about three dozen genes.
Researchers discovered a new code supporting the gene activity
Naturally, the code depends upon the assistance of massive proteins called transcription factors, which determine which genes in one’s genome are turned on or off.
Activity-driven brain wiring even during early embryonic development
The researchers focused on mouse retinal ganglion cells in the study, which project from the retina to the superior colliculus a part of the brain where they synapse onto downstream target neurons.
Latest findings show the clues for the ageing immune system
One of the curious features of the thymus, however, is that it serves as the very first organ in our body to become small with age.
Latest research finds new targets and biomarkers for potential Alzheimer’s therapies
New findings out of Emory University are shaking theories of the origin of Alzheimer’s the leading cause of dementia among older adults worldwide.
Diet and exercise can prevent type 2 diabetes in individuals with high genetic risk
The first study in the world, conducted recently at the University of Eastern Finland, demonstrates that even in those with a high hereditary risk, type [Read More…]
