Researchers discover which organs in Antarctic fish produce antifreeze

...y icy Antarctic waters, and face high risks of ice inoculation from frequent seawater drinking, the evolution of AFGPs in these fishes was probably driven first and foremost by the need to prevent the hyposmotic intestinal fluid from freezing." The researchers also studied a variety of fishes from Arctic waters...

Cell wall of pneumonia bacteria can cause brain and heart damage

...rs with CV-6209 survived, while mice treated after inoculation of cell wall did not. "Our success in preserving cardiomyocyte function even in the presence of cell wall suggests that it might be possible to safely pre-treat people infected with S. pneumoniae with a drug that blocks PAF before we administer an...

H9N2 avian flu vaccine paired with adjuvant provokes strong human immune response at low doses

...ine is, Dr. Atmar notes. "In our trial, a single inoculation of adjuvant-containing H9N2 vaccine, even at the lowest dosage, generated a good antibody response," says Dr. Atmar. By comparison, the seasonal flu vaccine contains 15 micrograms each of three different circulating flu strains--much higher than the ...
