About Toxin


A toxin is a poisonous substance produced within living cells or organisms; synthetic toxicants created by artificial processes are thus excluded. The term was first used by organic chemist Ludwig Brieger, derived from the word toxic.

'Man on the moon" moment - the year of great breakthroughs

Feb 16,2020 3:33 am

It was the promise of a remarkable year, in medical Science - from the invention possibilities for the treatment of the untreatable, reversal of paralysis, and keep The Brain alive After Death .

Thibault was able to move his arms and legs, if It was in the exoskeleton, "as [the] First Man on The Moon ," said the 30-year-old Thibault.

He described the moment he was able to take his First Steps since paralyzed in a fall two years ago.

He can now move all four of their paralyzed limbs with a mind-controlled exoskeleton suit.

His movements, especially walking, are far from perfect, and the robo-suit is only in the laboratory.

But the researchers say the approach could One Day improve the quality of life of the patients

Meanwhile , nerves in the inner paralyzed The Body of the People , "to give rewired", the movement of your arms and hands.

patients in Australia can feed themselves, put on make-up, turn the key, dealing with money and give them to a computer.

- A unique drug, made for only a girls with unprecedented speed Mila had not Batten treatable disease until doctors have developed a medicine, which have carried out for you, Mila Makovec-doctors, a seemingly impossible feat - a girl with a fatal brain disease, has a unique drug That was invented from the ground up just for her and you All In less than a year.

she was diagnosed with a fatal and incurable Batten disease.

The eight-year-old's medical team in Boston whole performed-genome-sequencing - a detailed survey on Mila's DNA, its genetic code, and discovered a unique mutation That caused their disease. to Have

it can be seen, the guilt, the thought of researchers, it might be possible to treat them.

you developed a drug tested on Mila's cells and on animals in the laboratory obtained and the permission to use it by the US Food and Drug Administration.

drugs typically take about a decade and a half to go from the laboratory through clinical trials and to the patients.

The US team got it in a year.

Mila is now with far fewer seizures, though they are not cured.

Gene silencing-active substances will no longer come Sue Burrell severe bouts of pain A new class of medicine called gene silencing, has demonstrated its ability to reverse previously intractable diseases.

A gene is a part of our DNA contains The Blueprint for proteins, such as hormones, enzymes or raw materials.

But our DNA is locked away in a cell, the nucleus of the cell and separated from the cell's protein-making factories.

That our bodies use a short strand of genetic code, the so-called messenger-RNA, to bridge The Gap and carry the instructions.

Gene-silencing drugs to kill The Messenger .

Sue Burrell, no more bouts of severe pain caused by acute intermittent porphyria.

And Vincent and Neil Nicholas take both of these gene-silencing drugs for a disease called amyloidosis.

Vincent and Neil Nicholas take both of these gene-silencing drugs viruses to The Rescue Isabelle Carnell man, with a cocktail of viruses to combat harmful bacteria in your body was rescued Isabelle Carnell I don't know the life by means of an experimental cocktail of virus.

teenager body was attacked by a deadly and seemingly untreatable bacteria, and was to survive for less than 1% chance.

she had big, black, purulent lesions form on your skin where the infection was spreading.

And she landed in the ICU, to fail if your liver started, with large colonies of bacteria form in your body.

tries, But the doctors at the Great Ormond Street Hospital, a untested "phage therapy" to infect the viruses and kill bacteria.

phage therapy has never been mainstream medicine and The Field was eclipsed by The Discovery of antibiotics, which are much easier to use.

But now phage therapy with an upswing due to The Rise of superbugs That are resistant to antibiotics.

Isabelle's case could be first of many.

was treated, A New Approach to cancer Charlotte Stevenson with a Tumor-agnostic medicine Charlotte Stevenson, a two-year-old from Belfast, was one of The First patients to benefit from a "revolutionary" new class of cancer drugs.

Tumor-agnostic drugs not to take care of it, where the Tumor grows in The Body , as long as you have a certain genetic anomaly in the interior.

The First , called larotrectinib, was approved for use in Europe.

It was designed to target gene tumors with a genetic abnormality known as a NTRK-fusion.

you can find in Charlotte's sarcoma and some brain -, renal -, thyroid -, and other types of cancer.

in the Meantime. Cancer immunotherapy has reached an important milestone.

The medicine uses the patient's own immune system to fight cancer, and is a story we've followed closely.

to survive, in the Meantime, More Than half of the patients with a deadly skin cancer (melanoma), considered not treatable, only a decade ago.

Ten Years ago, only one out of every 20 patients alive five years after diagnosis with late-stage melanoma. Most would die (in months).

It was an extraordinary and rapid change in care.

< p > The First drug to slow dementia? A pharmaceutical company says it has The First drug to slow down Alzheimer's disease is A U.S. pharmaceutical company says it has The First drug to slow Alzheimer's disease.

The drug, called aducanumab, is an antibody That clears toxic proteins That build up in The Brain .

The Announcement in October, it was a big surprise, as the company had written Biogen, the drug only in March of this year.

Then he checked The Evidence show That those who got the highest dose, benefit and get more memory, and language ability and were better to wash on the day-to-day tasks such as cleaning, shopping and Laundry.

If the medicine is approved, is not guaranteed, it would be one of The Most important moments in the modern medicine.

A new type of dementia Meanwhile , experts think they have found a new form of dementia, and millions may have been diagnosed incorrectly.

dementia is a symptom in many diseases of The Brain and memory loss is The Most common feature.

Alzheimer's disease is The Most common form of dementia and other Vascular Dementia , dementia with Lewy bodies, fronto-temporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Now, "the limbic-mainly age-related TDP-43-encephalopathy" or just "Late" has been added to The List .

twinsOne of our most followed stories of the year, The Separation of two Siamese twins were separated.

Safa and Marwa were born joined at The Skull , and she was never able to see each other's face.

There are no official figures on how often this happens, but an estimate says craniopagus conjoined twins are born once in every 2. 5 Million Births.

Most of life is not longer than A Day .

is needed To separate multiple operations, months of hard work and the expertise of hundreds of hospital workers.

pig's brain, partly four hours After Death , revives The findings could lead to new treatments for brain damage, The Line between life and Death was the fuzzy-2019.

pig's heads were partially revived four hours after The Animals were slaughtered.

The study showed That the Death of The Brain cells could be stopped, and That some of the connections in The Brain were made.

The feat a was carried out by rhythmically pumping a synthetic blood around the severed heads.

The Surprise findings challenge the idea That The Brain goes into irreversible decline within minutes of The Blood supply is cut off, and could lead to new treatments for brain damage and disorders.

However, there were no signals from The Brain , which would indicate awareness or consciousness.

A new tool for manipulating DNA Prime-processing can be made precise changes to DNA could be the cause of how to fix A new way of editing The Code of life 89% of the errors in the DNA, the diseases.

The technology, the editing so-called prime, was described as a "genetic word processor" in the situation, just to re-write the genetic code.

It's a bit like with the key combination Ctrl-to find F, the pressed bit of text you want to change, and then press Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to copy the new text (or the command key if you are a Mac user).

There are some 75,000 different mutations That can cause disease in humans and the researchers say, prime fix be able to edit almost nine in 10 of them.

It has already been used to correct harmful mutations in the laboratory, including those That cause sickle-cell anemia and Tay-Sachs disease (a rare and deadly nerve disease).

and Give People a voice, the read electrodes the electrical activity in The Brain , scientists have developed a brain-implant to read the minds of the People and their thoughts in language.

to get The First an electrode into The Brain implanted, the electrical signals, maneuvers, lips, tongue, larynx and jaw.
