Researchers discover new approach to treat allergic asthma
Updated : 1 year, 11 months ago IST
Researchers revealed that a protein known as Piezo1 stops allergens from hyperactivating a kind of immune cell in the lungs. The work implies that activating Piezo1 could be a new therapeutic approach to lowering lung inflammation and treating allergic asthma.

Gut bacteria generate neurotransmitters that shape the neonatal immune sys
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Weill Cornell Medicine researchers discovered that specific bacteria colonise the gut shortly after birth and produce the neurotransmitter serotonin, which educates gut immune cells. This helps to prevent allergic responses to both food and microbes during early development.

Researchers discover way to prevent cognitive decline after radiation
Updated : 2 years, 2 months ago IST
The brain's immune cells, known as microglia, have been shown to cause cognitive abnormalities following radiation exposure. As such, microglia may be a crucial target for mitigating these symptoms, according to research from the University of Rochester's Del Monte Institute for Neuroscience
