Currently, about 1% of people in the world suffer from congenital adentia, which can be either complete or partial. The new drug aims to treat the effects of this disease by targeting the USAG-1 protein, which inhibits tooth growth.

Scientists from Tsinghua University in China have presented a new method of treating bronchial asthma based on genetic engineering. Researchers have created genetically modified cells that can fight this disease. Asthma is an allergic condition in which the airways become swollen and narrowed, leading to difficulty breathing.

The main cause of asthma is a type 2 immune response, in which immune cells attack the body’s own body. Current treatments, such as inhaled steroids and antibody injections, help suppress symptoms but cannot completely cure the disease.

Scientists from the University of Florida in the US conducted a study showing that orange peel extract may have positive effects on cardiovascular health. The study tested two types of extracts: polar and nonpolar fractions to evaluate their ability to reduce levels of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), which is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

The results showed that the non-polar fraction of orange peel extract successfully reduced the production of harmful chemicals. In addition, a substance called feruloylputrescine was found in the polar fraction extract, which inhibits the enzyme responsible for the production of TMAO.
