Most chromosome copying errors in early embryos occur during "this" transition. You'll have to read more to find out ... https://lnkd.in/gMYJG38z

Read: https://lnkd.in/gkmGCxxb Food antigens (certain proteins in food) were found to prevent small intestinal tumors in gut-tumor prone mice by making ensuring they had enough T cells for defense. → antigen free diets had the opposite effect. #cancerResearch #food #tumors

Did you know that certain cells in the brain continuously map out where we will be in the near future? Read about the discovery here: https://lnkd.in/g5cKXGaa. But, don't feel bad of you didn't ... no one did until it was recently discovered at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science. #brainscience #neuroscience #navigation #memory #brainfunction

Another win for basic research! A new study by the RIKEN Center for Brain Science in Japan shows that dopamine can destroy beta-amyloid plaques in a rat model of Alzheimer's disease -- and memory also improves! #brainscience #alzheimersdisease #neuroscience #research read about it here: https://lnkd.in/gnjUEMAc

Researching rare diseases is difficult! Oxytocin might help reduce seizures in patients with NGLY1 deficiency, but we may never find out. #rarediseases #oxytocin #ngly1 https://lnkd.in/gvtZ6Hdb

Tired of inorganic fertilizers that harm the environment? RIKEN CSRS has discovered an alternative that uses nitrogen-rich biomass made from purple marine bacteria. #SustainableScience #Fertilizer #Biomass #MarineBacteria https://lnkd.in/ghp2nKyX

Rare T cells discovered. Genetic variation in some enhancer DNA of these cells was associated with immune disorders like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and others. #immunology #Tcells #ImmuneDisorders #genetics https://lnkd.in/g8VzCDCy

Thanks to RIKEN researchers, now we know that lipids produced by gut bacteria accumulate outside the gut as age advance, while other changes in lipids differ depending on sex. https://lnkd.in/gx9SFBWf #lipids #gut #microbiome #aging

Although this topic is similar to our last post, the discovery here (by the same researchers) will likely have a more immediate impact on our ability to transition to greater green hydrogen production. #sustainability #carbonneutrality #hydrogeneconomy article is here: https://lnkd.in/gTiEUNJ8
