Lung cancers are of two main types- Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) & Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Of the two, SCLC occurs in about 10-15% of all lung cancers. SCLC is more common and spreads rapidly in the body. The main cause of SCLC is smoking. SYMPTOMS: As SCLC spreads rapidly in the body, it provides less symptoms in the early stages and thus, delays the treatment procedures. [ 121 more words ]

The fight against coronavirus is going on for a long time, but we are yet to come up with any vaccine or drug against it. Although we are at par in knowing about the virus completely, what we knew all this time that the modes of transmission of the virus is in three ways: Direct contact with infected people Direct contact with contaminated surfaces… [ 313 more words ]

EPA recently approves that Lysol Disinfectant Spray and Lysol Disinfectant Max Cover Mist can destroy the virus two minutes after contact. It is recently reported that there are 420 disinfectant products that are effective against "harder-to-kill" viruses than the new coronavirus, but the two Lysol are products are the first to be tested directly against the virus and able to kill it.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients do not have oestrogen, progesterone & HER2 (human epithelial receptor 2) receptor protein. Hence the tests for all these three remain negative in the cancer cells of patients and therefore the term TRIPLE NEGATIVE is used. TNBC is much more aggressive and not so easily curable cancer than other types of cancers as TNBC has a high chance of recurrence. [ 350 more words ]

Type 1 Diabetes mellitus is an autoimmune disease that causes the body to not produce the hormone insulin at all. This is an irreversible disorder that is caused by the body’s immune response to destroy insulin-producing beta cells of the Islets of Langerhans in pancreas. The hormone insulin checks the amount of glucose in the bloodstream. Lack of it causes hyperglycaemia, eventually leading to the development of severe diabetic complications. [ 307 more words ]

Testing is the main weapon in order to fight COVID19. However, testing is still unavailable and in shortage at several places due to lack of proper supplies and reagents needed for sample processing, RNA extraction, etc. To eradicate this issue, the researchers from the University of California Santa Barbara recently developed a rather simple method to isolate nucleic acids and proteins from cells and viruses known as PEARL (i.e., an acronym for Precipitation Enhanced Analyte RetrievaL).

SARS-CoV2 enters the body by bonding with the ACE2 receptor (Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme. The ACE2 receptors are present on the surfaces of cells of respiratory tract. Researchers from Tulane University in New Orleans, LA, have now developed an antibody that stops the virus from attaching to the ACE2 receptor, ultimately preventing infection. In a paper on the preprint server bioRxiv, the researchers say that healthcare professionals could use the antibody both before and after a person has had exposure to SARS-CoV-2. [ 353 more words ]
