Researchers find new epigenetic vulnerability of acute myeloid leukemia
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a blood cancer that causes an uncontrollable buildup of white blood cells. Due to the poor outcomes of this disease, researchers all over the world have been looking for new ways to treat AML while still allowing normal blood development to occur.

Study shows acute myeloid leukaemia's epigenetic susceptibility
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a deadly blood cancer that creates an uncontrollable buildup of white blood cells. Because of the bad outcomes of this disease, experts all over the world have been looking for novel strategies to treat AML while still allowing for normal blood development.

Study reveals white blood cells role in clearing out dead liver cells
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
The removal of liver cells that have undergone apoptosis, in which cells are intended to die in a controlled manner, maybe the function of a type of white blood cell typically linked to immunological responses to foreign particles.

Study suggest how myeloid cells contribute to a long-lived HIV reservoir
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
According to a study, individuals who have been virally suppressed for years on antiretroviral medication may contain HIV in a subpopulation of white blood cells known as myeloid cells. Researchers demonstrated in the study that HIV can be reactivated and infect new cells in certain myeloid

Key role identified for nervous system in severe allergic shock
Updated : 2 years, 12 months ago IST
An abrupt drop in blood pressure and body temperature is a key feature of the severe allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis, causing people to faint and, if untreated, potentially die. That response has long been attributed to blood vessel dilation and leakage. However, in a mouse study, res

Research reveals potential treatment strategy for bone marrow failure synd
Updated : 3 years ago IST
The spongy tissue found inside bones called bone marrow is in charge of producing platelets, white blood cells, and red blood cells. Anemia, blood malignancies, and dangerous infections are all more likely to occur as a result of bone marrow failure syndromes.

Pungent ginger compound puts immune cells on heightened alert: Research
Updated : 3 years ago IST
Ginger is known for activating the immune system. This argument is now supported by new findings from the Leibniz Center for Food Systems Biology at the Technical University of Munich. Little doses of a spicy ginger component heightened white blood cell alertness in laboratory testing. This
