Southampton [UK]July 10 (ANI): In the fight against Cancer, new insights into the key properties of antibodies have been discovered by researchers at the University of Southampton. The interdisciplinary study, published in Science Immunology, reveals how changing the flexibility of antibodies can stimulate a stronger immune response.

These findings enabled the Southampton team to design antibodies to activate important receptors on immune cells to “turn them on” and provide a more potent anti-cancer effect. The scientists believe their findings could pave the way for improving antibody drugs that target cancer as well as other autoimmune diseases.

Washington [US]July 10 (ANI): Researchers have definitively linked the function of a protein-specific domain important in plant microbial biology to cancer triggers in humans, knowledge that has eluded scientists for decades. The team’s findings, published in Nature Communications Biology, open new avenues for the development of selective drug therapies to fight different types of cancers such as cancers that start in the breast and stomach.

ORNL scientists set out to experimentally prove what they first concluded with computational studies: that the plasminogen-apple-nematode domain, or PAN, is associated with cell proliferation that promotes tumor growth in humans and defense signaling during plant-microbial interactions in bioenergetic plants. This association was first made when researchers were exploring the genomes of plants such as poplars and willows. In the latest study, the ORNL team demonstrated

Washington [US]July 9 (ANI): A group of Singaporean scientists have developed a biofunctional thermogel, a type of synthetic polymer, to prevent retinal scarring caused by failed retinal detachment repair surgery, according to a new study. The research findings were published in the journal Nature. Read Also | Sri Lankan Prime Minister Announces Resignation, Amid Economic Crisis Read @ANI’s Story… – Latest Tweet by ANI Digital. Research reveals that proliferative vitreoretinopathy occurs when retinal scar tissue prevents the retina from healing and falling back into place. And it’s said that it accounts for more than 75 percent of failed retinal detachment surgeries, and can result in vision loss or blindness if left untreated. Current treatment options for PVR are limited to surgical removal of this scar membrane with preserved visual recovery. This work highlights the potential use of synthetic polymers alone to modulate cellular behavior and, for the first time, offers a novel th

Washington [US], July 9 (ANI): Exposure to copper in the environment and the protein alpha-synuclein in the human brain may play an important role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. The researchers were able to show how the protein takes on an unusual shape when exposed to large amounts of copper ions. These findings could help develop new strategies for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. The causes of Parkinson’s disease are not fully understood. Long before the onset of characteristic muscle tremors, the appearance of faulty proteins in the brain can be the first sign. Researchers at Empa and the University of Limerick in Ireland have now taken a closer look at the abnormal shape of these alpha-synucleins in the form of a protein ring. By doing so, they were also able to visualize at the nanoscale the relationship with environmental pollution by copper. It highlights the development of neurodegenerative diseases and the role of biometals in the disease proces

Washington [US]July 9 (ANI): Researchers have entangled two quantum memories via a 33-kilometer-long fiber-optic connection, a record and an important step towards a quantum internet. A network where data transmission is highly secure against hacking? If physicists succeed, this will one day become a reality with the help of the quantum mechanical phenomenon known as entanglement. For entangled particles, the rule is: If you measure the state of one particle, you automatically know the state of the other. It makes no difference how far the particles are entangled with each other. This is the ideal state for transmitting information over long distances in a way that makes eavesdropping impossible.
