Scientists Discover Biological Explanation Why Upper Respiratory Tract Infections Are More Common In Colder Temperatures

Researchers from Mass Eye and Ear and Northeastern University have discovered a previously unidentified immune response inside the nose that fights viruses responsible for upper respiratory tract infections. Further testing revealed that this protective response is inhibited at colder temperatures, making infection more likely to occur. New studypublished on December 6 in The Journal of …

Scientists identify genetic variant causing ALS in some patients

Leave a Comment / Genetics / By admin

Researchers from Nagoya University in Japan have identified a new genetic variant found in some patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Using human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, they detailed the process by which this variant relates to ALS. The researchers say they expect this mechanism to be a new therapeutic target for the treatment …
