COVID-19: The Prevention Prescription – The New Indian Express

The health focus today is squarely on the bodys natural defense system. Until there is a vaccination, preventative measures are all we can turn to. Ayurveda can help, experts believe, especially a technique thats been gaining popularity. It's called Photo Bio Modulation (PBM). Availableat Indus Valley AyurvedicCentre (IVAC) in Mysore, itsan emerging medical practicein which exposure to low-level laser light or light-emitting diodes stimulates cellular function. This results in beneficial clinical outcomes for various conditions and diseases, primarily low immunity, in addition to lung disorders, respiratory disorders, joint problems, skin issues, and stress.

How does it work?Also known as Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), it increases the production of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) in the mitochondria of the cells, which scavenges the free radicals. By doing so, it stimulates stem cell proliferation, lymph nodes associated with respiratory tract, the immune system and stimulates local tissues to support lung function leading to protection from asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, says Dr Talavane Krishna, Founder,President, IVAC.

Nasal ApplicationWhile PBM is gaining prominence now, processes such as nasal application, part of Panchakarma (five actions) treatment, have been a standard Ayurvedic antidote to viruses for aeons. One has to apply different herbal powders, liquid extracts, medicated ghee or oil inside the nostrils. Medications like Anu Taila, sesame or coconut oil, Brahmi ghrutha etc are antimicrobial and act as a protective filter inside the nose and throatthe primary entry point for the viruses. This simple procedure could be a daily practice for both adults and children.

Oil pulling Likewise, oil pulling with sesame or coconut oil as a daily oral health practice is useful. It involves swishing a teaspoon of oil in the mouth for three-five minutes and then spitting the oil, followed by washing/brushing the mouth. This kills bacteria that may lead to tooth decay, bad breath, and gum disease.

Rasayana This is one of the eight major branches of Ayurveda. Popularly known as a form of rejuvenation therapy, not only does it focus on anti-aging, but also immunity. This is accomplished by taking certain Ayurvedic preparations, food based on body constitution, and following an Ayurvedic way of life. This increases Ojas, the very essence of the bodys immunity. Medicines include single herbs like Ashwagandha, Shatavari, Amrita, and formulations like Chyavanaprash, Triphala, Makaradhwaja, notto mention regular body-mind detoxifications like Panchakarma and Rejuvenation.

Balance is keyKeeping the body alignedwith its natural rhythms is a prerequisite to the success of your health. For this, Ayurvedic principles namely Dhincharya (daily regime) and Rithucharya (seasonal regime) are crucial. Dhinacharya looks at aspects such as oral hygiene, yoga, pranayama, meditation, diet, bowel movements and more. Ritucharya describes the various changes in our body during the different seasonsand its effect on health. Italso teaches us how to keepa good balance.

The importance of dietcannot be negated, therefore ensure you add ginger, garlic, pepper, turmeric, clove, cumin, fenugreek and cinnamon in your food as all these ingredients build the immunesystem and bring aboutperfect balance, says Gita Ramesh, Joint MD, Kairali Ayurvedic Group.Dont forget to take warm showers and apply sesame oil on the entire body before the morning bath. Allow nostrils to be lubricated by application of cow ghee or oil, and do warm turmeric water gargles regularly, says Dr Aruna Bhide, Senior Ayurveda Doctor and Consultant, Mercure Goa Devaaya Retreat. Breathing exerciseslike Anulom vilom pranayama (alternate breathing), Kapal bhati (forceful exhalation) and Nadi shuddhi pranayama are beneficial too. Keep in mind to exercise until you sweat as this is the best way to excrete toxins.

Potions for healing(Do consult an Ayurvedic doctor)

We must follow the rules to keep out coronavirus – Gulf News

We have to obey the rules. No country is equipped to handle a pandemic of this proportion Image Credit: Gulf News

Have you been staying at home? Were you practising social distancing when you had to go out? Did you wear a mask outdoors? We hope all of you did. And in the next few days, as we mark the Eid, you should stick to these measures to ensure your safety and the safety of others. As responsible citizens and residents, its our duty to follow theguidelines to help the UAE fight the scourge of COVID-19.

Ramadan is a time for prayer, reflection and family iftars. But this fasting month has come at a time when the world has been battling a global pandemic. Caution is the watchword now. Thats why the UAE and other countries have asked people to refrain from gathering for iftar and Taraweeh prayers.

People in the UAE have generally adhered to the rules as each of the emirates carry out its own disinfection drive. But there have been instances where some people have shown scant regard for the guidelines.

A family gathering turned out to be a disaster as 31 people who attended the iftar party were found to have been infected by the virus. This is precisely the situation that UAE officials have sought to avoid.

The UAE is well aware of the risks when it partially opened the malls and parks, resumed the operation of Dubai Metro. It is important for the economy and the mental well-being of the people. However, officials expect people to do their part in safeguarding themselves and society at large. That would mean following the rules strictly.

But there have been violations. And these irresponsible actions are counterproductive, making it difficult for the authorities to rein in the spread of the virus. Hefty fines and more restrictions are a result of the scale of violations. These fines are essential to dissuade people from putting others in danger.

No country is equipped to handle a pandemic of this proportion. Think of the medical professionals who put their lives at risk every day. They work courageously in the face of grave danger to save us from the virus. We should recognise their sacrifice by acting responsibly; by averting any possible exposure to coronavirus. That would make the work of doctors, nurses and paramedics easier.

Each of us owes our health to ourselves. More importantly, we are vital cogs in keeping the UAE healthy. Lets do our part: stay home, wash hands as often as possible, practise social distancing, wear masks (preferably gloves too) outdoors, and follow the guidelines. That way, we would have played our part in the global battle against coronavirus.

1st transplant using liver cells from embryonic stem cells conducted on baby in Japan – The Mainichi

This photo provided by the National Center for Child Health and Development shows liver cells produced from embryonic stem cells.This photo provided by the National Center for Child Health and Development shows human embryonic stem cells.

The National Center for Child Health and Development in Tokyo announced it has successfully conducted a clinical trial to transplant liver cells created from human embryonic stem cells into a baby with a serious liver condition.

It is the first clinical trial in Japan to use human embryonic stem cells, and is also believed to be the first case in the world of liver cells produced from embryonic stem cells being transplanted into a person.

The baby that received the transplant had hyperammonemia, a condition in which an abnormality in the natural urea cycle prevents toxic ammonia from being broken down in the liver. The abnormality is said to be prevalent in between one in 8,000 and one in 44,000 people.

In serious cases a liver transplant is required to treat it, but newborns have a high risk of experiencing major side effects. As a result, transplants cannot be conducted safely until several months after birth, when the baby weighs 6 kilograms or more.

In Europe and North America, doctors have utilized translational medicine, in which normally functioning liver cells are transplanted into newborns, to keep the liver functioning until an organ transplant can be carried out. In Japan, the National Center for Child Health and Development has previously transplanted liver cells from living donors into newborns with the condition soon after birth, but it has had difficulty in steadily securing liver cells.

Because of this, the center drew up plans to create liver cells from embryonic stem cells and transplant them. Over a period of two days in October 2019, it injected about 190 million liver cells into blood vessels in the umbilical cord of a 6-day-old newborn with hyperammonemia. The ammonia concentration in the infant's blood then stopped rising, enabling researchers to confirm that the liver cells had reached the newborn's liver, and the baby was temporarily discharged from the hospital.

Five months later, when the baby weighed 7 kilograms, a living donor liver transplant was carried out with the baby's father serving as the donor. The baby was again able to be discharged from the hospital in late April.

The center has received approval from the national government to use liver cells derived from embryonic stem cells in regenerative medicine, and plans to transplant them into several people subject to clinical trials in the future.

Center official Mureo Kasahara of the national center's organ transplant center commented, "It was often the case that babies with this condition died from seizures or suffered brain damage before the liver transplant could take place. The latest case is hugely significant in that we have proved the effectiveness of the method."

Anti-Aging: HGH Can Reduce Biological Age by One Year and a Half Study Shows – Gilmore Health News

Researchers have been able to reduce the biological age of nine people by administering synthetic growth hormone injections (HGH) for 12 months.

HGH Injections

A lot of research is being done around the world to rejuvenate body cells and slow down the aging process. One of them, published in the journal Cell Aging, suggests that a persons biological clock can be set back a year and a half. A feat in the race against time.

Nine healthy men aged 51 to 65 took a synthetic growth hormone (HGH) to stimulate the thymus gland, a small gland located in the upper thorax between the lungs. The thymus gland plays an important role in the immune system, but atrophies with age and loses its effectiveness.

Using blood samples taken before and after the experiment, researchers from the University of California found that the epigenetic age of the participants was reduced by one and a half years in 12 months of treatment. Epigenetics is the study of changes in gene activity: it measures the biological age of a person, i.e. the age of their cells, not their chronological age.

Read Also: Is NAD+ The Anti Aging Substance Mankind Has Been Searching For?

This strongly suggests that their risk of mortality has decreased without us being able to give an accurate estimate of their life expectancy, says Steve Horvath, Professor of Biostatistics and lead author of the study. However, this study, which was conducted only on white males in a single age group, needs to be conducted on a larger sample of people of different ages, ethnicity, and gender. A new trial with 50 participants is planned.

Recently, researchers at Stanford University succeeded in rejuvenating human cells with the help of proteins involved in the early stages of embryonic development and induced pluripotent stem cells, more simply called iPS (for induced pluripotent stem cells).

Read Also: HGH May Help Heal Age-Induced Tissue Damage By Activating Vital Gene

When iPS cells are produced from adult cells, they become younger and pluripotent, said Vittorio Sebastiano, assistant professor at Stanford University. For a while we wondered whether it would not be possible to simply stop the aging clock without inducing pluripotency, i.e. the ability to reproduce. And we succeeded, said the researchers, who were able to rejuvenate the cells of several people.

Clinical Outcomes Using RYONCIL (remestemcel-L) in Children and Adults With Severe Inflammatory Graft Versus Host Disease Published in Three Articles…

Key points:

NEW YORK, May 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mesoblast Limited (Nasdaq:MESO; ASX:MSB), global leader in cellular medicines for inflammatory diseases, today announced that clinical outcomes of its allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) medicine RYONCIL (remestemcel-L) in children and adults with steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) have been published in three peer-reviewed articles and an accompanying editorial in the May issue of Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, the official publication of the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy.

Mesoblast Chief Medical Officer Dr Fred Grossman said: Results from these three trials show a consistent pattern of safety and efficacy for RYONCIL (remestemcel-L) in patients with the greatest levels of inflammation and the most severe grades of acute GVHD. These clinical outcomes provide a compelling rationale for use of remestemcel-L in children and adults with other conditions associated with severe inflammation and cytokine release, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and systemic vascular manifestations of COVID-19 infection.

In the accompanying editorial, Dr Jacques Galipeau, Professor and Assistant Dean of Medicine at the Stem Cell & Regenerative Medicine Center at the University of WisconsinMadison and Chair of the International Society of Cell and Gene Therapy (ISCT) MSC Committee, concluded that after more than a decade of clinical study involving three distinct advanced trials, it appears that remestemcel-L might well have finally met the regulatory requirements for marketing approval in the United States for steroid refractory acute GVHD in children, and it is to be determined whether this industrial MSC product will find utility for adults afflicted by acute GVHD or other indications.

The trials highlighted in the three articles all evaluated the same treatment regimen of RYONCIL, with patients receiving twice weekly intravenous infusions of 2 million cells per kg body weight over a four-week period. RYONCIL was well-tolerated in all studies with no identified safety concerns. The three trials were:

1. Study 275: An Expanded Access Program in 241 children across 50 centers in eight countries where RYONCIL was used as salvage therapy for steroid-refractory acute GVHD in patients who failed to respond to steroid therapy as well as multiple other agents.

2. Study GVHD001/002: A Phase 3 single-arm trial in 55 children across 20 centers in the United States where RYONCIL was used as the first line of treatment for children who failed to respond to steroids for acute GVHD.

3. Study 280: A Phase 3 randomized placebo-controlled trial in 260 patients, including 28 children, across 72 centers in seven countries where RYONCIL or placebo were added to second line therapy in patients with steroid-refractory acute GVHD who failed to respond to steroid treatment.

About Acute Graft Versus Host Disease Acute GVHD occurs in approximately 50% of patients who receive an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT). Over 30,000 patients worldwide undergo an allogeneic BMT annually, primarily during treatment for blood cancers, and these numbers are increasing.1 In patients with the most severe form of acute GVHD (Grade C/D or III/IV) mortality is as high as 90% despite optimal institutional standard of care.2,3 There are currently no FDA-approved treatments in the United States for children under 12 with steroid-refractory acute GVHD.

About RYONCILTM Mesoblasts lead product candidate, RYONCIL (remestemcel-L), is an investigational therapy comprising culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cells derived from the bone marrow of an unrelated donor. It is administered to patients in a series of intravenous infusions. RYONCIL is believed to have immunomodulatory properties to counteract the inflammatory processes that are implicated in SR-aGVHD by down-regulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, increasing production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, and enabling recruitment of naturally occurring anti-inflammatory cells to involved tissues.

Stem Cell Therapy Industry Viewpoint

Stem cells industry can be traced back to 1950s. In 1959 first animals were made by in-vitro fertilization by preserving the stem cells. Till 2000, research was being carried out on stem cells to study its therapeutic effect. In 2000, fund allocations were made to research on cells derived from aborted human foetuses. In the same year, scientists derived human embryonic stem cells from the inner cell mass of blastocytes. Later, in 2010, clinical trials for human embryonic stem cell-based therapy were initiated. As technology progressed, stem cell therapy for treating cancer were developed. However, due to ethical issues, the use of stem cells for curing diseases witnessed slow growth for few years. But as the regulatory scenario changed, people started preferring stem cell therapies due to its better efficacy. Stem cell therapy is in developing stage and has numerous growth opportunities in developing economies with high prevalence of chronic diseases.

Purpose: External and internal stimuli easily affect the retina. Studies have shown that cells infected with Toxoplasma gondii are resistant to multiple inducers of apoptosis. Nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely used in biomedical fields; however, little is known about cytotoxicity caused by NPs in the retina and the modulators that inhibit nanotoxicity.Materials and Methods: ARPE-19 cells from human retinal pigment epithelium were treated with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) alone or in combination with T. gondii. Then, the cellular toxicity, apoptosis, cell cycle analysis, autophagy, ROS generation, NOX4 expression, and MAPK/mTOR signaling pathways were investigated. To confirm the AgNP-induced cytotoxicity in ARPE-19 cells and its modulatory effects caused by T. gondii infection, the major experiments carried out in ARPE-19 cells were performed again using human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) cells and bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from NOX4/ mice.Results: AgNPs dose-dependently induced cytotoxicity and cell death in ARPE-19 cells. Apoptosis, sub-G1 phase cell accumulation, autophagy, JNK phosphorylation, and mitochondrial apoptotic features, such as caspase-3 and PARP cleavages, mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization, and cytochrome c release into the cytosol were observed in AgNP-treated cells. AgNP treatment also increased the Bax, Bik, and Bim protein levels as well as NOX4-dependent ROS generation. However, T. gondii-infected ARPE-19 cells inhibited AgNP-induced apoptosis, JNK phosphorylation, sub-G1 phase cell accumulation, autophagy, NOX4-mediated ROS production, and mitochondrial apoptosis. Furthermore, mitochondrial apoptosis was found in AgNP-treated HFF cells and BMDMs, and AgNP-induced mitochondrial apoptosis inhibition via NOX4-dependent ROS suppression in T. gondii pre-infected HFF cells and BMDMs was also confirmed.Conclusion: AgNPs induced mitochondrial apoptosis in human RPE cells combined with cell cycle dysregulation and autophagy; however, these effects were significantly inhibited by T. gondii pre-infection by suppression of NOX4-mediated ROS production, suggesting that T. gondii is a strong inhibitory modulator of nanotoxicity in in vitro models.

Keywords: silver nanoparticles, Toxoplasma gondii, mitochondrial apoptosis, human retinal pigment epithelium, reactive oxygen species, NADPH oxidase 4

Life celebrates 20th anniversary during English Tourism Week – North East Times

May 26, 2020 @ 10:30 by Chloe Holmes

The International Centre for Life in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, celebrates its 20th anniversary on May 27 with a week of virtual events and activities.

The landmark anniversary for Life home to the popular visitor attraction Life Science Centre, biomedical research facilities and two NHS clinics falls during VisitEnglands English Tourism Week, which this year will focus on supporting the recovery of tourism and raise awareness of the importance, quality and value of the sector to the UK economy.

Lifes Chief Executive, Linda Conlon, said: We had big plans in place to celebrate Life being 20 in 2020, but weve quickly adapted our operations and celebrations to a digital format. Like many others, we will continue to celebrate our birthday under lockdown it just takes a bit more ingenuity and creativity to do so, and theyre skills that lie at the heart of science.

Over the past 20 years, Life has been home to the research team that created the worlds first cloned human embryo; the first fertility clinic in the world licensed to treat patients using mitochondrial replacement therapy, which was also researched and developed onsite; and a pioneering stem cell treatment that has restored the sight of many people. Now, researchers are working onsite to help tackle the COVID-19 pandemic.

Life Science Centre welcomes about 300,000 visitors a year inspiring the next generation of scientists and health heroes, and helping people of all ages to explore science and to discover its relevance to their own lives.

Linda said: The mission of Life Science Centre has never been more crucial than it is today, in the midst of a global pandemic and climate crisis. Science centres can play a valuable role in communicating cutting-edge science to the public.

Lifes virtual celebrations start today [Tuesday 26 May], with a birthday-themed making activity for families to take part in for #LifeGoesONline on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. For adults, later this evening, Life will host a science-themed virtual pub quiz.
