Natural sugar induces “honeybee syndrome” in cancer to boost chemotherapy

Scientists have discovered that a common natural sugar could play a role in boosting cancer treatments like chemotherapy. Mannose was found to be able to invoke “honeybee syndrome” in cancer cells to slow their growth and make them more vulnerable to a… Continue reading Natural sugar induces “honeybee syndrome” in cancer to boost chemotherapy

Regenerative drug summons stem cells for inflammation-free healing

Researchers have developed a drug that can mimic inflammation signals to lure stem cells to damaged tissue, without causing any further inflammation. The technique could be a boon for regenerative medicine to treat neurological disorders.Continue Readi… Continue reading Regenerative drug summons stem cells for inflammation-free healing

Baldness discovery sees hair breaking through the skin of hairless mice

There are quite a few ways in which humans may one day be able to regrow hair, and an avenue that keeps promising to deliver is through induced pluripotent stem cells, or iPSCs. Scientists have again uncovered new possibilities in this area, … Continue reading Baldness discovery sees hair breaking through the skin of hairless mice
