Zika virus uses cells' 'self-care' system to turn against host

1 month ago | phys.org | Emily Caldwell |Lisa Lock |Robert Egan

A new study reveals the biological secret to the Zika virus's infectious success: Zika uses host cells' own "self-care" system of clearing away useless molecules to suppress the host proteins that the virus has employed to get into those cells in the first place.
A machine learning tool can help with diagnosing, monitoring colorectal cancer

1 month ago | medicalxpress.com | Emily Caldwell |Stephanie Baum |Andrew Zinin

Scientists aiming to advance cancer diagnostics have developed a machine learning tool that is able to identify metabolism-related molecular profile differences between patients with colorectal cancer and healthy people. The analysis of biological samples from more than 1,000 people also revealed metabolic shifts associated with changing disease severity and with genetic mutations known to increase the risk of colorectal cancer. The work is published in the journal iMetaOmics.
A potential ‘anti-spice’ that could dial down the heat of fiery food

COLUMBUS, Ohio – If you’ve ever regretted ordering a spicy meal, take note: A new study identifying molecules that suppress the heat of chili peppers hints at the possibility of adapting these compounds into an “anti-spice” condiment for food that’s too fiery to eat.
Psychedelics may induce right-brain dominance, researcher proposes

1 month ago | medicalxpress.com | Emily Caldwell

The secret to psychedelic drugs' links to greater empathy and insight may lie in their ability to coax the right hemisphere of the brain into a position of dominance over the left, according to a proposed new theory. Researcher Adam Levin has combined his experience in therapeutic psychedelics research and psychiatric training with a review of imaging, numerous studies and previous models to support his proposal, published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology.
Engineered antibody nasal spray protects mice from deadly influenza A infection

1 month ago | medicalxpress.com | Emily Caldwell

Scientists have engineered a monoclonal antibody that can protect mice from a lethal dose of influenza A, a new study shows. The new molecule combines the specificity of a mature flu fighter with the broad binding capacity of a more general immune system defender.
Engineering an antibody against flu with sticky staying power

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Scientists have engineered a monoclonal antibody that can protect mice from a lethal dose of influenza A, a new study shows. The new molecule combines the specificity of a mature flu fighter with the broad binding capacity of a more general immune system defender.
Couple satisfaction linked to fewer cognitive issues with chemo

1 month ago | m3india.in | Emily Caldwell

A satisfying intimate relationship may help diminish chemotherapy-related cognitive problems experienced by patients with breast cancer, a new study suggests. General social support was also protective, but the association was less robust and lasting than a satisfying intimate partnership, which was characterised by fewer declines in both objective measures of cognitive setbacks and patient self-reports of subtle changes such as forgetting grocery list items and being unable to multitask.
