Throat Infections And In Very Rare Cases Invasive Disease

Throat Infections And In Very Rare Cases Invasive Disease

Group A streptococcus (or Strep A) is knowing to cause scarlet fever; throat infections and in very rare cases invasive disease; where the bacterium enters the bloodstream or tissue and can trigger sepsis and toxic shock. The analysis suggests the new strain has increased in numbers among cases of scarlet fever; throat infections and much…

Bacteria Compete With Human Hosts For Key Micronutrient

Bacteria Compete With Human Hosts For Key Micronutrient

The study showing disease causing bacteria compete with human hosts; for key micronutrient. As microbiologist showing that disease causing bacteria compete with their human hosts for a key micronutrient. All multi celled organisms rely on single-celled ones, bacteria, to synthesize queuine.  The human gut naturally has these queuine manufacturers, or they enter the body through…

Parasite Pathogens Have A Real Impact On Brain Function

Parasite Pathogens Have A Real Impact On Brain Function

Innovative study on the parasites showing that these parasites have a real impact on brain function in rodents, independent of long term developmental delays; that can be observing very quickly after initial infection. This means study very likely been underestimating the impact these parasites have on the brain in both children and adults, but particularly…

Classification Of Progressive Diabetic Kidney Disease

Classification Of Progressive Diabetic Kidney Disease

According to the study, researchers developing a new method; that automates the classification of progressive diabetic kidney disease; reducing variability and boosting precision. But the advance is expected to minimize variability in diagnoses among pathologists. It may also lead to improvements in diagnosing other conditions; and eventually could allow clinicians to predict ahead of time…

Trypanosoma Cruzi Is The Parasite Responsible For Chagas Disease

Trypanosoma Cruzi Is The Parasite Responsible For Chagas Disease

According to the study it discussing about a parasite, largely thought to be asexual; has been showing to reproduce sexually after scientists uncover clues hidding in its genomic code. Trypanosoma cruzi is the parasite responsible for Chagas Disease, found in Latin America. Around eight million people are currently infected by the disease, which can cause…

New Pathological Mediator Of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

New Pathological Mediator Of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

According to the research study, this developing an new pathological mediator of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); finding and which could have further implications for understanding the molecular breakdown that gives rise to the neurodegenerative disease that affects nearly half a million people around the world. Motor neurons populate the base of the brain and along…

Human Stomach Pathogen Is Attracting To Bleach

Human Stomach Pathogen Is Attracting To Bleach

The study revealing the pathological findings that research revealing; that a human stomach pathogen is attracting to bleach. Discovering the molecular mechanism by which the human stomach pathogen Helicobacter pylori is attracting to bleach; also known as hypochlorous acid or HOCI. The study revealed that H. pyloriuses a protein called TlpD to sense bleach and…

Operational Difficulties Caused By The Tiny Size Of Dicyemids

Operational Difficulties Caused By The Tiny Size Of Dicyemids

In addition to operational difficulties caused by the tiny size of dicyemids; currently, methods to manipulate gene expression have not been established in dicyemids; so it is still difficult to execute functional tests. From so simple a beginning, endless forms most beautiful; and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolving. Despite the potential challenges,…

Parasites Manipulate Host Behavior To Increase Reproductive Success

Parasites Manipulate Host Behavior To Increase Reproductive Success

Many parasites manipulate host behavior in order to increase reproductive success; and to spread across wider areas cites such examples as Toxoplasma gondii; which hitches a ride and induces epigenetic changes in the rodent’s amygdala. These changes diminish its predator aversion around cats; the protozoan’s intended destination, and the only animal in which it can reproduce. But rabies,…

Vaccine May Protect Against The Klebsiella Superbug

Vaccine May Protect Against The Klebsiella Superbug

Pathological study finding that a promising vaccine may protect against the Klebsiella superbug; as a powerful superbug, a hypervirulent form of the bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae; is a very difficult to curb infection. But it causes a variety of infections including rare but life-threatening liver, respiratory tract; bloodstream and other infections. Antibiotic resistance has been dubbed…

Zinc Protection Against Streptococcus Pneumoniae Infection

Zinc Protection Against Streptococcus Pneumoniae Infection

The study showing that the zinc is mobilizing to sites of infection; where it stressing the invading bacteria and helps specific immune cells kill pathogens like Streptococcus pneumoniae. So this showing that the dietary zinc protecting against the pathogens like Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. Researchers have uncovering a crucial link between dietary zinc intake; and protection…
