How eating more calories helps lower asthma risk in children - but only up to a point

Children and adolescents in the U.S. who consume higher amounts of dietary energy have a lower risk of asthma, but this protective effect stops beyond 56.442 kcal per kilogram of body weight per day. The study found an L-shaped relationship, suggesting that insufficient energy intake may heighten asthma risk.

Regulating cell acidity could transform autoimmune disease treatments

What if treating autoimmune diseases was as simple as regulating the acidity levels of parts of patients' cells? Genetic screening may have unlocked a path for treating the severe inflammation associated with many immune diseases by regulating one protein's role in helping another protein control cell acidity, according to new research published in Cell by a team from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.
