The Paris-Lamar County Health District has reported two new Covid-19-related deaths, a 53-year-old man and a 64-year-old woman. This brings the countys death total to 95. An additional 61 cases were reported, which brings the total case count since testing began in March to 5,413, with 2,438 of those confirmed through PCR testing, 2,805 confirmed with antigen testing and 170 through antibody testing.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists have tried to understand and track SARS-CoV-2 without a proper parts list. Much of the research emphasis has...

 E-Mail Kings College London researchers have found evidence that minocycline, a widely used antibiotic with anti-inflammatory properties, gave greater improvement in depressive symptoms in patients with treatment resistant depression with low-grade peripheral inflammation. Improvement in depressive symptoms In a four-week randomised clinical MINDEP (MINocycline in DEPression) trial, 39 patients with major depressive disorder were recruited from services linked to South London and Maudsley N...

New method replicates bone tissue complexity, bone remodeling processes A multidisciplinary team of researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amhersts Institute for Applied Life Sciences (IALS) have developed a technique to replicate bone tissue complexity and bone remodeling processes. This breakthrough could help researchers further their study of bone biology and assist in improving development of drugs for osteoporosis. Published in Science Advances, the researchers developed a new bi...

ATLANTA – Overnight, Georgia added more than 6,500 new COVID-19 cases, according to the Georgia Department of Public Health Friday.

The year 2021 marks the 100th anniversary of a fundamental discovery that's taught in every biochemistry textbook. In 1921, German physician Otto Warburg observed that cancer cells harvest energy from glucose sugar in a strangely inefficient manner: rather than "burn" it using oxygen, cancer cells do what yeast do -- they ferment it.

Since SARS-CoV-2 was identified in December 2019, researchers have worked feverishly to study the novel coronavirus. Although much knowledge has been gained, scientists still have a lot to learn about how SARS-CoV-2 interacts with the human body, and how the immune system fights it. Now, researchers reporting in

Nov./Dec. 2020 (3, 6), © 2020 American Chemical Society A protein found commonly in human blood might help with the detection of hard-to-diagnose pancreatic tumours. Researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), the Alfried Krupp Hospital in Essen and the University of Witten/Herdecke have developed approach using the proteins structure and its function as a proxy for this. In a first study in ACS Pharmacology & Translational Science, the ...
