  • Genetic biomarker may predict severity of food allergy
    on September 20, 2023

    Researchers reported for the first time that a genetic biomarker may be able to help predict the severity of food allergy reactions. Currently there is no reliable or readily available clinical biomarker that accurately distinguishes patients with food allergies who are at risk for severe life-threatening reactions versus more mild symptoms.

  • New drug delivery system has potential to improve cancer treatments
    on September 20, 2023

    Biomedical engineers have developed a new hydrogel-based delivery system that balances the acidic environment in a tumor and greatly enhances the cancer-fighting activity of the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin.

  • Suppressing negative thoughts may be good for mental health after all, study suggests
    on September 20, 2023

    The commonly-held belief that attempting to suppress negative thoughts is bad for our mental health could be wrong, a new study suggests. Researchers trained 120 volunteers worldwide to suppress thoughts about negative events that worried them, and found that not only did these become less vivid, but that the participants’ mental health also improved.

  • Newly discovered bone stem cell causes premature skull fusion
    on September 20, 2023

    Craniosynostosis, the premature fusion of the top of the skull in infants, is caused by an abnormal excess of a previously unknown type of bone-forming stem cell, according to a preclinical study.

  • Decoding depression: Researchers identify crucial biomarker that tracks recovery from treatment-resistant depression
    on September 20, 2023

    A team of leading clinicians, engineers, and neuroscientists has made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of treatment-resistant depression. By analyzing the brain activity of patients undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS), a promising therapy involving implanted electrodes that stimulate the brain, the researchers identified a unique pattern in brain activity that reflects the recovery process in patients with treatment-resistant depression. This pattern, known as a biomarker, serves as […]

  • Strengthening artificial immune cells to fight cancer
    on September 20, 2023

    Among available immunotherapies, the use of ‘CAR-T’ cells is proving extremely effective against certain blood cancers, but only in half of patients. A main reason for this is the premature dysfunction of these immune cells, which have been artificially modified in vitro. A team has now discovered how to prolong the functionality of CAR-T cells. By inhibiting a very specific metabolic mechanism, the team has succeeded in creating CAR-T cells with enhanced immune memory, capable of fighting […]

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy eases how fibromyalgia pain is experienced by the brain
    on September 20, 2023

    Patients living with fibromyalgia (FM) — a disease that predominantly affects women and is characterized by chronic pain, fatigue and brain fog — often find limited treatment options and a scarcity of explanations for their symptoms. Investigators have now found that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can significantly reduce the burden of FM by, in part, reducing pain-catastrophizing, a negative cognitive and emotional response that can intensify pain through feelings of helplessness, […]

  • Effects of cashew nut-shell extract and monensin on in vitro ruminal fermentation, methane production, and ruminal bacterial community
    on September 20, 2023

    The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cashew nut-shell extract (CNSE) and monensin on ruminal in vitro fermentation, CH(4) production, and ruminal bacterial community structure. Treatments were: control (CON, basal diet without additives); 2.5 μM monensin (MON); 100 ppm CNSE granule (CNSE100); and 200 ppm CNSE granule (CNSE200); each incubated with 52 mL buffered ruminal content and 500 mg of total mixed ration for 24 h using serum vials. The experiment was done as a…

  • Food allergy – New risks through vegan diet? Overview of new allergen sources and current data on the potential risk of anaphylaxis
    on September 19, 2023

    A vegan diet is increasingly en vogue, i.e., a diet based on plants, in which animal products are completely avoided, often for health and environmental reasons. The menu is supplemented with pulses (e.g., soy, lentils, peas), nuts (e.g., cashew, macadamia, almond, pecan, para, walnut) and seeds (e.g., chia, flaxseed) or pseudo-grains (quinoa, buckwheat). Indeed, the product range is expanding to include vegan foods such as milk alternatives (e.g., oat, almond, soy drinks) and cheese or meat…

  • Vegan/vegetarian diet and human milk donation: An EMBA survey across European milk banks
    on September 19, 2023

    The nutritional adequacy of human milk (HM) from vegan/vegetarian mothers has been a matter of debate, and a variety of recommendations regarding the eligibility of these mothers as human milk donors exists. According to the latest evidence, HM from vegans/vegetarians is similar in its composition to that from omnivores, however, some differences may be observed regarding vitamin B(12) and omega-3 fatty acids concentrations. Maternal supplementation of these compounds has been proven […]

  • Heat and shear stability of particle stabilised foams for application in gluten-free bread
    on September 15, 2023

    Bread forms an integral part of the daily diet in many cultures worldwide. At the same time, a significant number of people try to avoid wheat-based products for either health reasons or due to personal preferences. The absence of a protein network in gluten free bread affects its structure, taste, texture and shelf-life. This paper suggests a technological solution to this issue that uses a pre-foamed mass of gluten free raw materials which is mixed with the bread’s ingredients, then kneaded…

  • Vegan versus meat-based cat food: Guardian-reported health outcomes in 1,369 cats, after controlling for feline demographic factors
    on September 13, 2023

    Increasing concerns about environmental sustainability, farmed animal welfare and competition for traditional protein sources, are driving considerable development of alternative pet foods. These include raw meat diets, in vitro meat products, and diets based on novel protein sources including terrestrial plants, insects, yeast, fungi and potentially seaweed. To study health outcomes in cats fed vegan diets compared to those fed meat, we surveyed 1,418 cat guardians, asking about one cat […]
