Study shows possible reverse zoonoses of SARS-CoV-2 from humans to animals

A new study describes an instance of natural infection of SARS-CoV-2 in a puma during the first wave and three lions during the third wave in a private zoo in South Africa in at least three transmission events from their handlers.

Role of leptin in immune modulation and pathophysiology of COVID-19

A recent review paper in the journal Frontiers in Physiology discusses the role of leptins in infection with SARS-CoV-2 that triggered the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Living alone, serial break-ups may raise the levels of inflammatory markers in men

Living alone for several years and/or experiencing serial relationship break-ups are strongly linked to raised levels of inflammatory markers in the blood-but only in men-finds a large population study published online in the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health.

Study offers new evidence on how childhood immunometabolic risk factors may lead to depression, psychosis

A growing body of research suggests that early-life infection, inflammation, and metabolic changes could contribute to psychiatric disorders – perhaps via effects during critical periods of brain development.

Adding a tomato concentrate to the diet can reduce intestinal inflammation related to HIV

New UCLA-led research in mice suggests that adding a certain type of tomato concentrate to the diet can reduce the intestinal inflammation that is associated with HIV. Left untreated, intestinal inflammation can accelerate arterial disease, which in turn can lead to heart attack and stroke.

Mapping peripheral blood glycoprotein profiles of COVID-19 patients

A team of researchers recently analyzed differential protein glyco-isoform distributions of symptomatic and asymptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 patients.

Melatonin found to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 entry into mice brains

New research recently unveiled the utility of melatonin and melatonin-derived medicines in reducing brain entry of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and subsequently preventing long-term neurological consequences of coronavirus disease 2019.

First-responder cells launching the repair after heart attack promote inflammation overdrive

First-responder cells launching the repair after a heart attack are so frantic about fixing the damage that they promote more inflammation than necessary, new research in mice suggests.

A closer look at the relationship between COVID-19 and Alzheimer’s disease

Researchers discuss the findings of previous studies on the role of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the progression of Alzheimer's Disease.

Omicron spike-specific binding antibodies attenuate disease, despite increasing transmission

Researchers investigate the capacity of vaccine-induced antibodies to generate Fc-effector activity against the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant.

Excessive intake of simple sugar in adolescents could be a risk factor of psychiatric disorders

There has been a remarkable increase in intake of simple sugar (sucrose, isomerized sugar (corn syrup)) from beverages and diets in modern society. The intake of simple sugars in adolescents in which mental disorders frequently occur is higher than any other generations.

Exploring the Mediterranean diet as a potential strategy against SARS-CoV-2

A study found that the Mediterranean diet, when combined with non-smoking and regular physical activity, can lower susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2.

New oral pill for COVID-19 home treatment

As cases and hospitalizations continue to rise in many countries, new treatments are being sought to arrest the progression of the disease, preventing severe illness and death or disability. One such is the small molecule molnupiravir, the focus of a new research paper.

SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to distinct changes in proteomic and peptidomic profiles and posttranslational modifications

A new study indicates that as a result of SARS-CoV-2 infection comprehensive changes in protein processing and regulation occur.

Trial identifies a drug that may benefit some patients hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia

A proof-of-concept trial led by the Universities of Birmingham and University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust has identified a drug that may offer benefit some patients hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia.

New combined therapy shows promising results in treating triple negative breast cancer

A drug used to treat cardiac failure has shown promising results in treating triple negative breast cancer, according to Houston Methodist researchers who released results this week on a new combined therapy with the potential to improve outcomes for these hard-to-treat breast cancer patients.

Frequent cognitive impairments after 4-month follow-up in ICU COVID-19 patients

Results from a recent observational study published in the Journal Of The Neurological Sciences found that after a 4-month follow-up, ICU patients with severe COVID-19 illness were more likely to have mild cognitive impairment with features related to a diffuse encephalopathy than patients with mild infection who do not need a ventilator. Additionally, ICU patients experienced more significant impairment in executive function. All neurological deficits involve the peripheral nervous system.

SARS-CoV-2 patients exhibit high specialized pro-resolving molecule serum levels

In a new study, researchers compared the serum levels of bioactive lipids in a cohort of 50 in-patients who had confirmed symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection with that of a control group.

An assessment of COVID-19 mortality risk using patient biomarker time series

A new study discusses the use of multiple biomarkers taken over the course of hospitalization in COVID-19 patients to determine the risk of mortality.

Consuming a diet of pro-inflammatory foods linked to frailty risk in middle-aged and older adults

Results of a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition indicate that regularly consuming a diet of pro-inflammatory foods (e.g., those rich in simple carbohydrates or in saturated fats) is associated with increased likelihood of developing frailty in middle-aged and older adults.
