New research suggests low-dose THC combined with an anti-inflammatory medicine could protect memory and reduce mental retardation in Alzheimer's, a disease affecting millions and previously resistant to COX-2 preventions, offering a faster potential therapy.
Prenatal BPA exposure acts as an endocrine disruptor, causing lasting sex-specific metabolic shifts and immune system changes in rats. Women showed cancer-like states, men metabolic syndrome, raising risks for chronic diseases later in life, despite FDA's current safety claims.
A new study reveals AI systems, like GPT-4, can surpass average human creativity on specific tasks, but top humans still outperform AI, especially in complex creative activities. AI is best positioned as a powerful creative assistant, not a replacement.
New research explores how sugar metabolism and proteins like DLK and SARM1 influence neuronal survival, offering potential breakthroughs for treating Parkinson's, brain injuries, and neurodegenerative diseases.
New research shows that 150 minutes of weekly aerobic exercise can reduce brain age by nearly a year in midlife adults, offering a proactive way to protect cognitive health and delay decline.
New study reveals that red blood cells in long-term diabetes patients cause vascular damage. Restoring microRNA-210 levels could serve as a biomarker to predict and prevent early cardiovascular risks.
Stanford Medicine researchers have identified a protein blocker that reverses knee cartilage loss and prevents arthritis, offering a promising non-surgical alternative to joint replacement treatments.
Research shows the GRIN2A gene, unlike polygenic causes, can directly trigger mental disorders like schizophrenia. Specific GRIN2A variants impact nerve cell activity and NMDA receptor function.
Current heart attack risk assessment tools like ASCVD and PREVENT may fail to identify many at-risk individuals, highlighting the need for improved early detection and prevention strategies, possibly with cardio imaging.
Chronic cannabis use links to increased ER visits due to cannabis hyperemesis syndrome, marked by severe vomiting. A new diagnostic code aids recognition and monitoring of this growing issue.
Scientists identified novel anti-aging compounds from blood bacteria. Indole metabolites reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, & collagen damage in skin cells, offering future skin rejuvenation treatments.
New research reveals sticky DNA lesions in mitochondria (mtDNA) disrupt energy production and trigger stress, potentially linking to chronic diseases and inflammation. mtDNA damage is more prevalent than nuclear DNA damage.
Researchers discovered immune cells using rapid signals to help damaged muscle regrow, potentially leading to new treatments for injuries and muscle-wasting. Macrophages play a key role in repair.
Scientists created the first detailed 3D model of the yellow fever virus, revealing structural differences between vaccine and virulent strains. This could lead to improved vaccines and antiviral treatments. Yellow fever remains a public health risk.
Reduce Thanksgiving calories with low-sodium broth gravy and smaller portions. Focus on vegetables, salad, and protein for a healthier, balanced holiday meal. Cook at home for control.
Research shows DMT connects with alpha waves, impacting self-awareness. DMT use leads to a temporary loss of self, altering the sense of time and self-perception. Medical info is not a substitute for professional advice.
