Link Between Neonatal Vitamin D Deficiency and Schizophrenia Confirmed
Newborns with vitamin D deficiency have an increased risk of schizophrenia later in life, a team of Australian and Danish researchers has reported. The discovery could help prevent some cases of the disease by treating vitamin D deficiency during the earliest stages of life.
Tissue-Engineered Spinal Disks Mimic Real Thing
Two-thirds of adults in the US will suffer from back or neck pain during their lifetimes. In this report researchers are getting closer to engineering healthy disk-like structures to implant in humans. In animal trials the disks become stable and well-integrated into the native tissue of the spinal columns several weeks post-surgery.
Experimental Drug Cocktail Yields Greatest Lifespan Extension Ever Seen in Animals
Scientists tried experimental combinations of different compounds on the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, and found that cocktails made up of already existing drugs could both slow the effects of ageing and significantly boost the animals' longevity.
Antibiotic and Probiotic Combo Successfully Eradicate Resistant Bacteria
Researchers have devised a new way to combat antibiotic resistance by combining a probiotic with an antibiotic. Encapsulating the probiotic in a biofilm-inspired shell of alginate prevented the antibiotic from killing it. The combination successfully eradicated two strains of drug-resistant bacteria known to infect wounds.
Does Herpes Cause Alzheimer’s?
A new study looks at the possible causal link between the herpes virus and Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers report antiviral drugs significantly reduce the risk of developing dementia in patients with severe herpes infections
Amino Acid L-Alanine Improves Glucose Control in Diabetes
Scientists discover that L-Alanine activates AMP kinase (AMPK) to increase energy production in cells, resulting in a short-term reduction in blood glucose that does not involve insulin.
Whey Protein Best for Helping Seniors Rebuild Lost Muscle
While exercise buffs have long used protein supplements to gain muscle, new research suggests one protein source in particular, whey protein, is most effective for seniors struggling to rebuild muscle lost from inactivity associated with illness or long hospital stays.
New 3-D Process Can Print Human Ligaments and Tendons
Scientists have developed a method to 3-D print cells to produce human tissue such as ligaments and tendons. A person with a badly damaged ligament, tendon, or ruptured disc could simply have new replacement tissue printed and ultimately implanted in the damaged area.
Newly Discovered Compounds Shed Light Health Benefits of Whole Grains
Scientists have discovered new compounds that may explain whole grain health benefits. A high intake of whole grains increased the levels of betaine compounds in the body which, in turn, was associated with improved glucose metabolism, among other things.
Nasal Administration of Resveratrol Shows Promise in Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the deadliest form of cancer in the world. Resveratrol exhibits chemopreventive properties against cancers of the digestive tract, no shows no effect on lung cancers. Scientists demonstrate that nasal administration of resveratrol shows very promising results in a study conducted in mice.
