Do you know what this molecule is?

Acetylcholine is a chemical used to transmit messages between nerve cells.

Henry Dale and his colleagues carried out a series of experiments that revealed how the chemical works. Among their many findings they showed that acetylcholine acts on many tissues and organs other than the heart, that it is released from nerve endings, and that it is almost immediately destroyed by another chemical once it has carried out its task.

On this day in 1914 Dale published a paper on the action of the acetylcholine. In 1936 Dale received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work illuminating its role in our nervous system: https://bit.ly/3grbSHZ

Los filamentos de cadena ligera pueden ser un buen biomarcador de daño axonal

A 𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 is an intermediate filament with three isoforms (light, medium, and heavy) that is expressed specifically in neurons. Neurofilaments form heteropolymers and are crucial constituents of the cytoskeleton, particularly in axons. During neuronal or axonal breakdown, neurofilaments are released extracellularly and can be measured in blood or cerebrospinal fluid as a biomarker of neurodegeneration.

The discovery of CRISPR/Cas9 genetic scissors has had a revolutionary impact on the life sciences. In the course of a few weeks, scientists can change the code of life with extremely high precision, making CRISPR/Cas9 one of gene technology’s sharpest tools.

This genetic tool has not only revolutionised basic science, but also resulted in innovative crops and will lead to ground-breaking new medical treatments.

The use of CRISPR/Cas9 has exploded since its discovery in 2012. In medicine, clinical trials of new cancer therapies are underway, and the dream of being able to cure inherited diseases is about to come true.

El virus de Epstein Barr está relacionado a largo plazo con neoplasias y enfermedades autoinmunes, algunas con disautonomia….el desarrollo de una vacuna sería un gran avance terapéutico

No FDA-approved vaccine exists for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which causes infectious mononucleosis, commonly known as mono, and is associated with multiple autoimmune diseases and several types of cancer. NIH has launched a clinical trial of a new vaccine candidate designed to prevent EBV infection. The vaccine aims to produce antibodies to protect certain types of cells from becoming infected, including those that line the throat. This is important because EBV is usually transmitted by infected saliva that enters the throat of an uninfected person. The study team is conducting the trial at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Learn more: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06908096
