Using magnetic bacteria to fight cancerous tumors

Researchers at ETH Zurich are planning to use magnetic bacteria to fight cancerous tumors. They have now found a way for these microorganisms to effectively cross blood vessel walls and subsequently colonize a tumor.

Multiple research platforms identify environmental chemical agents that promote intestinal inflammation

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a condition characterized by chronic gastrointestinal inflammation, is becoming increasingly common in industrialized countries.

Antibodies can prevent surface proteins of bacteria from entering host cells

Using bacteria of the Bartonella henselae species, researchers from Goethe University, Frankfurt University Hospital, the Paul Ehrlich Federal Institute for Vaccines and Biomedicines in Langen, and the University of Oslo demonstrated for the first time that antibodies can prevent certain surface proteins of bacterial pathogens from entering host cells.

Scientists use enhanced environmental surveillance for poliovirus type 2 detection in London sewage samples

In a new study, researchers investigated molecular properties of type 2 poliovirus (PV) isolates obtained from sewage samples (SS) to detect PV transmission in communities.

Metabolite discovery offers a potential way to address metabolic conditions

"Metabolism" describes the body's chemical changes that create the necessary materials for growth and overall health. Metabolites are the substances made and used during these metabolic processes-;or, as a new discovery out of Scripps Research and its drug development arm, Calibr, indicates, they could also be potent molecules for treating severe diseases.

Motif-based SARS-CoV-2 protein-human protein interactions as potential antiviral target sites

Researchers performed a ProP-PD (proteomic peptide phage display) analysis to identify peptides from intrinsically disordered human (host) proteome regions that bind with SARS-CoV-2 genome-encoded folded protein domains (PDs).

Clinical trial to evaluate antiviral drug for monkeypox begins in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

A clinical trial to evaluate the antiviral drug tecovirimat, also known as TPOXX, in adults and children with monkeypox has begun in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

Researchers take new approach to studying the development of the human brain

Researchers at ETH Zurich are growing human brain-like tissue from stem cells and are then mapping the cell types that occur in different brain regions and the genes that regulate their development.

Study using human and animal-derived cell lines suggests human origin of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant

Researchers examined the replicative capacity of seven SARS-CoV-2 isolates in 17 cell lines to understand their phenotypic variations and host range.

USF researchers test a protein that shows potential as novel therapeutic for ALS patients

Researchers at the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine, located at the University of South Florida, successfully tested a protein that has the potential to aid in the development of a protein-based therapy for patients with ALS, a progressive nervous system disease, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
