The new findings could help reduce miscarriages and pregnancy complications
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
The researchers also realized that at least some of the natural killer cells in the mother's body are "peacekeepers" rather than "warriors" that prevent other immune cells from attacking the fetus and produce chemicals that promote fetal growth and vascular connections.

Scientists develop 'mini placenta'
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
In a paper published in the new issue of the British journal Nature, the team led by researchers at the University of Cambridge says they have developed a "mini placenta" using cells in placental fluff, an experimental model known as organoids that survives long periods of time, has genetic stability, and secretes proteins and hormones that are similar to normal early pregnancy placenta and even test positive for pregnancy.

The study suggests that air pollution may lead to an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
suggests that young people living in areas with high levels of air pollution for a long time will suffer from axons in as little as 20 years, and the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease will increase, the researchers said.

Gene research or new treatments for acne
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
The study analyzed the DNA of 27,000 people, including 5,000 people with severe acne, and identified genetic differences that were more common in people with the disease.
Barker hopes that using new genetic information may lead to more effective drugs and treatments for acne.

How to prevent a heart attack in people with high blood pressure
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
recently, a large long-term study in London, England, showed that people with high blood pressure want to prevent heart attacks, while taking antihypertensive drugs and statins (drugs that help regulate cholesterol levels) may be the best option.

Scientists find out the cause of bowel disease in premature children
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
These mice had fewer small glial cells in their brains than mice with NEC and were not genetically engineered, meaning that HMGB1 from TLR4 in the inflamed intestine was indeed the cause of NEC-related brain damage.

The undernourished offspring of mother mice are susceptible to high blood pressure during pregnancy
Time of Update: 2020-12-20
A new study from the University of Tokyo in Japan found that young mice who were undernourished during pregnancy were more likely to develop high blood pressure as adults, linked to an increase in stress hormones caused by undernourishment, which the team believes is also a warning to humans.
