It is estimated that about 85% of patients that are diagnosed with pneumonia are due to the coronavirus and COVID-19 infection. …
Stem cells are the fundamental building blocks of the human body. Cells can differentiate and reproduce any tissue such as heart tissue, muscle, cartilage, bone, or liver. Newborn children have a lot of circulating stem cells that are needed for development and can quickly help them recover from infectious diseases and injuries. As we age, the quantities of circulating stem …
What Are Exosomes? Exosomes are loosely described as extracellular vesicles of fluid first used in inter-cell communication ( paracrine signaling) and these fluid-filled structures are usually released by cells after fusion of multivesicular body (MVB) and the plasma membrane. This process helps release intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) into the extracellular membrane (milieu) and the release vesicles are what we refer to …
According to the The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, a new class of radiopharmaceuticals has been developed to non-invasively identify over 30 types of malignant cancerous tumors.The latest Radiotracer uses a modified PET/CT scan (positron emission tomography/computed tomography) to image a large variety of tumors in various stages with high image contrast, paving the way for dozens of potential applications in …
Most traditional treatments today are designed using a one-size-fits-all to cover the “average” patient. But advances in biotechnology and Artificial intelligence (AI) medical researchers are now equipped with vast amounts of personalized datasets at their disposal, and can analyze unique situations based on our genetic profiles, family medical histories and other relevant medical conditions to better understand what types of …
