?? Today is FH Awareness Day! ?? Did you know that familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) affects 1 in 250 people worldwide? FH is a genetic condition that leads to dangerously high cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of early heart attack. But with the right information, you can take action! Check out the SHARED decision-making guide for FH for options and strategies to discuss with your healthcare team. Knowledge is power! ?????? ??

Understanding preventive measures for sarcomas is crucial in reducing risk. Awareness of genetic predispositions, minimizing exposure to harmful chemicals, and regular health check-ups are key steps. By educating ourselves and promoting early detection, we can improve treatment outcomes and save lives. Let's support research and spread awareness to combat sarcomas effectively. Together, we can make a significant impact, Like/share/repost! ? #SarcomaAwareness #PreventiveMeasures #HealthMatters #EarlyDetection #SaveLives #Oneeisai Eisai US

Recent research underscores the urgent need to address the pervasive presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in our environment. Classified as potential carcinogens, PFAS have been linked to a range of serious health issues, including: Cancers: Studies have shown associations between PFAS exposure and various cancers, particularly kidney and testicular cancer. Hormonal Disruptions: PFAS can interfere with hormone regulation, leading to reproductive issues and developmental delays in children. Immune System Effects: Exposure to PFAS has been shown to reduce the efficacy of vaccines, posing risks to public health. Cholesterol Levels: Research indicates a correlation between PFAS exposure and elevated cholesterol levels, contributing to cardiovascular disease. In light of these health risks and regulatory developments, reducing exposure to PFAS is critical for long-term health and safety. Our extraction systems offer a robust solution for industries seeking to eliminate PFAS at the source. By effectively removing up to 99% of PFAS from water, soil and biosolids our technology not only safeguards the environment but also protects human health. Together, we can take meaningful steps toward a healthier future. Let’s work hand in hand to implement solutions that ensure both environmental integrity and public safety. Contact us today and discover how our technology can extract 99% of PFAS from your waste stream: https://hubs.li/Q02R2gJy0 #HealthSafety #EnvironmentalHealth #PFASControl #SustainableFuture #ActNow

Today we mark #WorldDiabetesDay.? The global prevalence of diabetes has been steadily rising, making it a major public health concern. Around 460 million people are living with diabetes, and this number is expected to exceed 700 million by 2045, why a continuous focus on improved treatment paradigms is important. G?ttingen Minipigs are used in diabetes drug development and close the gap to humans due to physiological and metabolic similarities. Unlike other animal models G?ttingen Minipigs have comparable organ structures and metabolic responses, making them ideal for studying complex diseases like diabetes. Not only are G?ttingen Minipigs a perfect match for diabetes but also for comorbidities to diabetes. An example is a recently developed metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) model https://lnkd.in/eAv7Zm5B The genetic stability and well-documented health status of G?ttingen Minipigs provide consistent and reliable results, supporting the development of innovative treatments.

A new study published in Nature Communications examines the unique ability of fruit bats to consume large amounts of sugar without developing diabetes, a phenomenon that could potentially offer insights into new diabetes treatments for humans. “With diabetes, the human body can’t produce or detect insulin, leading to problems controlling blood sugar. But fruit bats have a genetic system that controls blood sugar without fail. We’d like to learn from that system to make better insulin or sugar-sensing therapies for people,” said study co-author and University of California, San Francisco geneticist Nadav Ahituv.

Kidney health for all on World Kidney Day！ It's important that we understand more about kidney disease and how we can support those who are managing a chronic kidney condition.

On this #rarediseaseday, it's important to note the progress that has occurred over the last decades in helping those afflicted by these oftentimes debilitating diseases. However, what we must also note is that while the deterioration or continuing damage of some of these diseases can be stopped, we are still at a time where repairing the damage done cannot be undone. On this day, I would like to challenge those of you in research to start thinking outside of where the industry has been for the last 25 years. It's time for us to go beyond #monogenics and start to #thinkmultigenic so we can make regenerative medicine a viable future for everyone. BioSolution Designs & Osprey BioScience
