Study indicates how resistant starch consumption decreases liver triglycer
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Resistant starch is a nondigestible fibre that ferments in the large intestine and has previously been found to boost metabolism in animal tests. A 4-month randomised controlled experiment in persons with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) found that regularly eating resistant starch

Study sheds light on antibiotic resistance in bacteria
Updated : 2 years, 6 months ago IST
Bacteria utilise a number of strategies to combat the treatments meant to kill them. One of the most prevalent of these weapons is ribosome-modifying enzymes. These enzymes are becoming increasingly common, appearing in clinical samples from bacteria with varying drug resistances all over th

Treatment with enzyme inhibitor may help combat antimicrobial resistance:
Updated : 2 years, 8 months ago IST
According to new research from Ghent, Belgium, intravenous treatment with MK-3402, a metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor, can be a successful technique in combating antimicrobial resistance. The findings will be presented at ASM Microbe 2023, the American Society for Microbiology's annual meeti

How brain cells are starved of energy in autophagy dysfunction: Study
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
According to new research, neurodegeneration in brain cells may occur when the normal cellular cleansing mechanism failed owing to declining levels of a coenzyme related to niacin and deprives cells of energy.
