Bangladesh Health Research Initiative (BHRI) was established in 2020 by Md Rashedur Rahman. Teamwork, Research and Innovation!
Its main objective is to support research aimed at the Bangladesh Health sector and motivate the enthusiastic young generation devoted to learning. The platform provides guidelines for those who pursue his/her higher study abroad. Initially, the organization started with only 7 people, now it is a family of around 40+ enthusiastic minds.

২০২৫ সালের নোবেল পুরস্কার ইন ফিজিওলজি
“Discovering how the immune system learns restraint.”
স্টকহোমের Karolinska Institutet থেকে আজ ঘোষণা করা হলো —
২০২৫ সালের নোবেল পুরস্কার ইন ফিজিওলজি অর মেডিসিন পেয়েছেন তিনজন অসাধারণ ইমিউনোলজিস্ট:
Mary E. Brunkow (USA), Fred Ramsdell (USA), এবং Shimon Sakaguchi (Japan),
তাদের যুগান্তকারী গবেষণার জন্য — Peripheral Immune Tolerance বিষয়ে।
The Nobel Prize, 2025)
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤
𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐄. 𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐤𝐨𝐰, 𝐏𝐡𝐃
(Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle, USA)
Dr. Brunkow-এর গবেষণা প্রথম দেখায়, FOXP3 gene-এর একটি mutation মানুষের ইমিউন সিস্টেমকে বিভ্রান্ত করে, যার ফলে ঘটে IPEX syndrome—একটি মারাত্মক autoimmune রোগ।
Her work onscurfy mice created a crucial link between genetics and immune regulation (Bennett et al., 2001).
𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐬𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐥, 𝐏𝐡𝐃
(Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, San Francisco, USA)
Dr. Ramsdell, Brunkow-এর সহকর্মী ও সহলেখক, FOXP3-এর ভূমিকা ব্যাখ্যা করেন regulatory T cells (Tregs) গঠনে ও তাদের কার্যক্রমে।
His studies bridged animal genetics to human pathology, confirming FOXP3 as the master regulator of immune tolerance (Bennett et al., 2001).
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐜𝐡𝐢
(Osaka University, Japan – Immunology Frontier Research Center)
Dr. Sakaguchi 1995 সালে প্রথম আবিষ্কার করেন regulatory T cells (Tregs) — সেই বিশেষ কোষসমূহ, যেগুলো দেহের ইমিউন সিস্টেমকে নিজ দেহের বিরুদ্ধে যুদ্ধ করতে বাধা দেয় (Sakaguchi et al., 1995)।
Later, he demonstrated that the transcription factor FOXP3 is essential for Treg identity and function (Hori, Nomura & Sakaguchi, 2003).
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐓𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞
ইমিউন সিস্টেমের মূল কাজ — “protect and defend.” কিন্তু, কোনো কোনো সময় কিছু self-reactive T cells thymus থেকে পালিয়ে যায়।
তাদের নিয়ন্ত্রণ না করা গেলে, তারা নিজের শরীরকেই “foreign” হিসেবে শনাক্ত করে আক্রমণ শুরু করে।
এই সূক্ষ্ম ভারসাম্য রক্ষা করে Peripheral Immune Tolerance — একটি জটিল ব্যবস্থা, যেখানে Tregs এবং FOXP3 একত্রে কাজ করে ইমিউন সিস্টেমের “brake mechanism” হিসেবে (Hori et al., 2003; Bennett et al., 2001)।
এটাই সেই ভারসাম্য — too much control → infection risk, too little → autoimmunity।
𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬
𝑨𝒖𝒕𝒐𝒊𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒆 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒔: FOXP3 mutation বা Treg dysfunction এর কারণে type 1 diabetes, lupus, multiple sclerosis, এবং IPEX syndrome হয়।
𝑪𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒓 𝑰𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒚: Tumor microenvironment-এ Tregs অনেক সময় immune response “দমন” করে রাখে; তাই তাদের নিয়ন্ত্রণ ক্যানসার চিকিৎসার মূল চাবিকাঠি।
𝑶𝒓𝒈𝒂𝒏 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏: Peripheral tolerance বুঝে donor graft গ্রহণের নতুন কৌশল তৈরি হচ্ছতাদের গবেষণা শুধু কোষ বা জিনের গল্প নয় — এটি মানবদেহের আত্মরক্ষার দর্শন।
Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, এবং Shimon Sakaguchi আমাদের দেখিয়েছেন,
কীভাবে ইমিউন সিস্টেম নিজের সীমা জানে — এবং সেই জ্ঞানই মানবজীবনের রক্ষাকবচ।

BREAKING NEWS
The Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet has decided to award the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi “for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance.”
This year’s medicine laureates have discovered how the immune system is kept in check. The body’s powerful immune system must be regulated, or it may attack our own organs. Brunkow, Ramsdell and Sakaguchi have been awarded this year’s medicine prize for their groundbreaking discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance that prevents the immune system from harming the body.
The laureates identified the immune system’s security guards, regulatory T cells, which prevent immune cells from attacking our own body.
The laureates’ discoveries launched the field of peripheral tolerance, spurring the development of medical treatments for cancer and autoimmune diseases. This may also lead to more successful transplantations. Several of these treatments are now undergoing clinical trials.
