Introduction Glycerol, also known as glycerin or glycerine, is a naturally occurring compound found in all lipids (fats) in the body. It is a colorless, odorless, sweet-tasting, viscous liquid. Structurally, glycerol is a triol, meaning it has three hydroxyl groups. These hydroxyl groups make glycerol an excellent humectant, meaning it attracts and retains moisture….
Among Alzheimer ‘s victims, 40% to 65% have a genetic variant called APOE4. Scientists have long known that this variant significantly increases the risk of neurodegenerative diseases, especially when one inherits a copy of APOE4 from both parents, but they are still learning to explain the molecular mechanisms of APOE4 action. A study published…
When we feel uncomfortable, we tend to eat less, drink less, and exercise less. This is not unique to humans—most animals reduce these three behaviors when fighting infection. Recently, a new study pinpoints clusters of neurons that control these responses (uncomfortable behavior). By provoking immune responses in mice, the researchers demonstrated that specific cell…
