Fatty liver disease frequently causes chronic liver inflammation and can possibly result in liver cancer. Scientists at the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ) and the University of Tubingen have demonstrated in mice that intermittent fasting on a 5:2 schedule can block this progression.
Liver inflammation, a typical side effect of malignancies elsewhere in the body, has long been associated with poor cancer outcomes and, more recently, with poor response to immunotherapy. A team of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania's Abramson Cancer Centre and Perelman School
In recent years, treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have advanced significantly. In many situations, a combination of drugs can now effectively suppress the inflammatory cells that produce swelling and discomfort when they penetrate the tissues around the joints.
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.
A new UCLA Health study discovered that Kundalini yoga improved cognition and memory in older women at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease by restoring neural pathways, preventing brain matter decline, and reversing ageing and inflammation-associated biomarkers - improvements not seen in
A study presented at the annual conference of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) has shown empirical evidence of the role played by the neck muscles in primary headaches. Improved therapies might result from the results.
According to a publication published in mSystems, changes in cytokine levels--immune system proteins involved in inflammation--during pregnancy may be connected to particular changes in the mother's gut microbiome as well as plasma and fecal metabolites.
In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, the molecule RvT4 strengthens the body's defences against atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, according to research from Queen Mary University of London
Researchers at Osaka University have developed a new therapy technique for cytokine storm, a devastating inflammatory disease caused by an infection or severe burn.
Lifestyle and genetics, as well as a range of other factors both within and outside of our control, have all been connected to the development of metabolic syndrome, a set of conditions that increase the risk of serious health problems.
