In a study published in the journal Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, a group of researchers from Unicamp (State University of Campinas) and USP (University of São Paulo) described how a human protein interacts with a SARS-CoV-2 protein, demonstrating one of the mechanisms used by the virus that causes Covid-19 to recruit cells and replicate. In in vitro tests, the researchers were able to inhibit the interaction between the molecules using a drug and thereby reduced [...]

​Associating the practice of aerobic physical activity with the use of the drug losartan increases the benefits for hypertensive patients, especially with regard to cardiac autonomic regulation, contributing to the proper functioning of the cardiovascular system. This was the conclusion of a survey carried out with male volunteers at FMRP-USP (School of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo). Scientists have shown that walking for 45 minutes, three times a [...]
