The group solicited responses to a fastidiously graded spectrum of feelings beginning with robust facial expressions categorised as 100 per cent depth and morphing by 10 per cent increments from excessive pleasure or unhappiness, for instance, to impartial. Each participant was requested to say whether or not the face expressed happiness, unhappiness, anger, disgust or worry. “We arrived at the lowest intensity of expression needed for a person to start judging correctly the emotion it [...]

An article published in the journal ‘Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology’ describes a study conducted by researchers at the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) and the University of So Paulo (USP) in Brazil that demonstrates how a human protein interacts with a SARS -CoV-2 protein, as well as one of the ways the virus that causes COVID-19 recruits cells to replicate. In laboratory tests, the researchers used a drug to inhibit the interaction between the molecules, [...]

In a study published May 02, 2022 in Nature Communications, scientists at University of California San Diego School of Medicine used human brain organoids to reveal how a genetic mutation associated with a profound form of autism disrupts neural development. Using gene therapy tools to recover the gene’s function effectively rescued neural structure and function. Several neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and schizophrenia have [...]

The researchers hope that the technique could also help diagnose harmful accumulations of twisted molecules in the body, including bladder stones, insulin fibrils and amyloid aggregations such as the plaques that appear in Alzheimer’s disease. In a world of curled molecules, biology often favors right- or left-handed versions. Walking along the supplement aisle, you might notice that some have an L or D in front of the names. L and D denote the direction in which the molecule twists, [...]

(Reuters) – The following is a summary of some recent studies on COVID-19. They include research that warrants further study to corroborate the findings and that have yet to be certified by peer review. Coronavirus transforms pancreas cell function When the coronavirus infects cells, it not only impairs their activity but can also change their function, new findings suggest. For example, when insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas become infected with the virus, they not only [...]
