Exploring the Healing Potential of D-Mannose: Benefits, Side Effects, and Beyond

Excited to share our @BioRxiv preprint 👩‍🔬, “The Gut Microbiome Controls Liver Tumors via the Vagus Nerve” from @TimGreten @NCIResearchCtr. 🧵 #neuroimmune #HCC #microbiome #CancerResearch

Interesting approach for acne treatment: engineer bacteria to work like Accutane, but locally (and without all the nasty side effects)! Modified C. Acnes bacteria secrete NGAL to kill sebocytes & thus sebum production. They engraft on mice skin & produce NGAL there.

Scientists from @ljiresearch and @biogen found blocking the TWEAK cytokine reduces #psoriasis gene expression and skin inflammation in mice, pointing to alternative treatment. Check out the 2021 study: https://t.co/6al9iZvStM #WeekendReads
