Exposure to high omega-6/low omega-3 diet promotes neuron growth in fetus brain during pregnancy

Pregnant mice fed a diet high in omega-6 fats and low in omega-3 fats produce offspring that go on to exhibit "hedonic"—pleasurable but excessive—levels of consumption of hyper-caloric diets, according to researchers at Hiroshima University

Research compares T cell responses to SARS-CoV-2 and influenza

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to grow, scientists are focusing on understanding how the host immune system responds to the virus in order to better shape public health responses and develop effective vaccines. A new study published on the preprint server medRxiv in September 2020 reports the T cell memory response to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, recombinant nucleocapsid protein, and other pooled peptides derived from convalescent patients.

Suppressing tumor's growth and spread from the inside

A new technology that allows researchers to peer inside malignant tumors shows that two experimental drugs can normalize aberrant blood vessels, oxygenation, and other aspects of the tumor microenvironment in non-small cell lung cancer, helping to suppress the tumor's growth and spread, UT Southwestern researchers report.
