A global push to recognize the threat of toxoplasmosis
One-third of the world's population is infected with the Toxoplasma parasite, which can cause ocular toxoplasmosis, an eye infection that can damage the retina and result in permanent vision loss. Although often seen as an unavoidable part of everyday human-animal interaction, to
First 3D views of human cone opsins reveal how daylight vision reacts so fast
First 3D views of human cone opsins reveal how daylight vision reacts so fast
The retina of the human eye contains 6–7 million cone cells. These cells contain light-sensitive proteins known as cone opsins. They enable us to perceive our surroundings in detail in daylight. They allow us to see the world in thousands of colors: red strawberries, green leaves
Clinical study of drug-resistant tuberculosis changes global medical practice
A clinical study that began in a research unit in Gqeberha (PE), Eastern Cape, has transformed global treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis.

Negative link seen between illness perception, self-management behavior in inflammatory bo
For patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), there is a significant negative correlation between illness perception and self-management behavior, according to a study published online June 16 in Scientific Reports.
Special protein in the brain's cleansing system may contribute to loss of brain function i
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and permanent loss of nerve cells in the brain. The breakdown causes memory loss, functional impairment and personality changes. In a new study published in Nature Aging, researchers found that the age-related reduction in a specific protein m

New Tfr cell model uncovers molecular switches that restrain antibody responses
New Tfr cell model uncovers molecular switches that restrain antibody responses
For the immune system to effectively combat pathogens, antibody responses must be precisely controlled. So-called follicular regulatory T cells (Tfr cells) play a key role in this process by limiting excessive immune responses and helping to maintain immune tolerance. Researchers
