Perceived stress can directly trigger psoriasis relapse

Innovative research has provided compelling evidence that perceived stress can directly trigger the relapse of psoriatic skin lesions. The study, presented today at the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Congress 2024, is the first to scientifically validate this connection in vivo.

Dietary antigens reduce small intestine cancer by boosting immune T-cells

Study shows that dietary antigens can suppress small intestine carcinogenesis by activating T-cells through Peyer's patches. Adding bovine serum albumin (BSA) or ovalbumin (OVA) to antigen-free diets restored immune function and reduced tumor growth in mice.

Fever enhances immune cell activity and induces mitochondrial stress

Fever temperatures rev up immune cell metabolism, proliferation and activity, but they also -; in a particular subset of T cells -; cause mitochondrial stress, DNA damage and cell death, Vanderbilt University Medical Center researchers have discovered.

Lipid metabolism plays a critical role in red blood cell recovery from acute anemia

Red blood cells are the most abundant cells in the body. It has long been known that when red blood cells break down or anemia occurs due to bleeding, the hormone erythropoietin (EPO) increases, leading to the proliferation of immature cells (erythroblasts) that eventually become red blood cells, thus restoring the red blood cell count.
