Alcohol consumption increases risk of several cancers while coffee protects against liver, skin cancer

Alcohol consumption is a major risk factor for several cancers including head & neck, oesophageal and bowel cancer – as well as the more widely known links to breast and liver cancer – according to a new study funded by World Cancer Research Fund, and published this week in Nature Communications.

COVID-19 booster shot in autumn will effectively protect against existing and future variants

Scientists at the University of Nottingham have confirmed that an autumn 'booster' dose of a Covid-19 vaccine will be an effective way to protect people from existing, and potentially future, variants of concern.

Plant-based virus-like particle vaccine induces durable immune response against SARS-CoV-2 variants

Scientists from Germany and Belgium have recently described the immunogenicity of a plant-based virus-like particle vaccine against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The vaccine induces robust antibody and T cell responses for at least 6 months. Moreover, the vaccine demonstrates potent neutralizing efficacy against the B.1.1.7, B.1.351, and P1 variants of SARS-CoV-2.

Study defines SARS-CoV-2 antibodies associated with neutralization and effector functions

A new study explores the polyclonal antibody response to SARS-CoV-2 in greater detail.

Green spaces, especially forest, reduce COVID-19 incidence, study says

An intriguing new study reveals that the closer you are to green spaces, especially forests, the less likely you are to be infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Study shows efficacy of gamma irradiation of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate in mouse model

A new study reports a more rapid method of viral inactivation in an effort to increase the appeal of inactivated viral vaccines against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Natural vs. vaccine-induced COVID-19 immunity

A new paper discusses the protection offered by immunity against COVID-19 following vaccination as compared to natural infection.

Study uncovers epigenetic mechanism that mediates a link between fetal conditions and later health

A study at Tampere University has identified one possible epigenetic mechanism through which the conditions at conception may affect the health of an individual in later life.

Enzyme pre-treatment yields a highly precise picture of skin bacteria

Healthy skin has a bacterial shield to protect against germs: the microbiome. This complex assembly of microorganisms was previously believed to be difficult to decipher.

IMBA researchers may have found the "Achilles' heel" of SARS-CoV-2 virus

Researchers identify two sugar-binding proteins that impede the viral entry of circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Potential new treatment for mast cell cancers reduces tumor size and prevents organ infiltration

A potential new treatment for mast cell cancers reduces the number of mast cells by "mutating" the messenger RNA (mRNA) before it can deliver instructions for manufacturing the gene responsible for cell proliferation.

Novel mechanistic insights on how ketamine exerts antidepressant effects

The discovery that the anaesthetic ketamine can help people with severe depression has raised hopes of finding new treatment options for the disease.

HKU research team sheds critical insight on what causes abnormal embryo elongation

Fetal abnormalities are of concern to all prospective parents, and many of these problems originate from abnormalities in the development of the embryo particularly during its elongation and division.

New platform can quickly identify common mutations on the SARS-CoV-2 virus

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder have developed a platform which can quickly identify common mutations on the SARS-CoV-2 virus that allow it to escape antibodies and infect cells.

Insulin resistance could be due to changes in specific subtype of fat cells, study suggests

It is well known that fat cells can influence our sensitivity to insulin. Now, researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have discovered that there are three different subtypes of mature fat cells in white adipose tissue and that it is only one of these, called AdipoPLIN, that responds to insulin.
