Top podcast @EricTopol about 2 breakthrough studies in brain research. As we age, immune cells in the brain are replaced by peripheral monocytes. Targeted modification of these cells could hold the key to preventing Alzheimer's dementia. Very well explained! (translated)
Viennese researchers have discovered that the epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR in certain immune cells can slow down the body's defense against colon cancer, which explains why immunotherapies often do not work, and therefore offer a new approach for combination therapies. (translated)
A new study from the University of Ulm shows that depression not only affects the immune system but also causes biophysical changes in immune cells, which could open up new approaches for therapy and prevention. (translated)
Studie z Michigan State University odhalila, že ženy trpí bolestí déle než muži, což může být způsobeno biologickými faktory, jako jsou imunitní buňky a hladiny určitého zánětlivého bílkoviny, interleukinu-10, která ovlivňuje bolestivost a jejíž vyšší koncentrace byla u mužů spojena s rychlejším ústupem bolesti. #Schmerzempfinden #Geschlechterunterschiede #Immunzellen
