    Israel claims their experimental EXO-CD24 can cure Covid in 5 days

    Israeli BioTech company Bonus Tech was developing & testing an inhaled drug during the last six months. Previously (during Phase I ) they reported that - "The drug is based on exosomes, [vesicles] that are released from the cell membrane and used for intercellular communication. We enrich the...

    Lambda variant could be the most dangerous....scientists raise suspicion.

    Mutations in the S-Protein in the variants are known to be resistant to NAbs (neutralizing antibodies) resulting from either vaccinations or from natural infection. However, not all mutations behave the same. For eg the HV69-70 deletion in the Alpha does not cause effect on NAb sensitivity but...

    Space telescopes spot light 'echoing' from behind black hole for the first time

    For the first time ever, scientists have seen the light from behind a black hole. Black holes are regions in space-time where gravity's pull is so powerful that not even light can escape its grasp. However, while light cannot escape a black hole, its extreme gravity warps space around it, which...

    Reversing age-related memory loss in Mice

    Scientists at the University of Cambridge and The University of Leeds have successfully reversed age-related memory loss in mice. This is expected to develop treatment for memory loss as we age. This team show that changes in the extracellular matrix of the brain -- 'scaffolding' around nerve...

    NASA’s Fermi Spots a Supernova’s ‘Fizzled’ Gamma-ray Burst

    On Aug. 26, 2020, NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected a pulse of high-energy radiation that had been racing toward Earth for nearly half the present age of the universe. Lasting only about a second, it turned out to be one for the record books – the shortest gamma-ray burst (GRB)...

    New multi-antibody cocktail that protects against Covid-19

    Researchers in Canada has come up with a new multi-antibody cocktail that works against Covid-19. When tested with hamsters, it suppressed replication-competent viral titers to undetectable levels in the animals’ lungs. It's named TATX-03 and studies show that it maintained in vitro neutralizing...
