  1. #Honeybees and #shrimp are now getting vaccinated
    #Vaccines that target #invertebrates’ innate #immunesystems could be a major boon for agriculture
    It has become increasingly clear that #innateimmunesystem has own way of creating immune memory. Scientists think this memory is achieved through #epigenetic changes, modifications to #DNA that don’t alter genetic sequence, and that these epigenetic changes can be passed from one generation to the next.

  9. It's early days, but as someone who wants to #mountaineer one day, I was fascinated.

    Genus #Blautia, a common #gut #bacteria studied for other reasons (increased cognitive development in infants & lower risk of #obesity & #diabetes in adults), can also possibly reduce damage caused by #AltitudeSickness

  13. I wonder if it's the increased use of #glyphosate, or perhaps other pollutants (#microplastics? #pfas). Other theories include #VitaminD deficiency (not enough outdoor time?), and lack of exposure to common microbes (again, not enough outdoor time).

    Why the World Is Becoming More Allergic to Food

    The frequency of food allergy has increased over the past 30 years, particularly in industrialised societies.

    Dr. Alexandra Santos
    September 2019
    "The increase in allergies is not simply the effect of society becoming more aware of them and better at diagnosing them.

    "It is thought that allergies and increased sensitivity to foods are probably environmental, and related to Western lifestyles.

    "We know there are lower rates of allergies in developing countries. They are also more likely to occur in urban rather than rural areas.

    "Factors may include #pollution, dietary changes and less exposure to #microbes, which change how our #ImmuneSystems respond."

  18. Just out in @PLOSBiology : an essay on ancestral #immunity, to understand why some part of the eukaryotic and bacterial #immuneSystems are conserved, despite constant arms race to fight viruses and parasites. We explore the new avenues this observation opens.

  21. This week on STEAM Powered, our conversation is with Eleonora Moratto, the Biology Ballerina.

    A common thread between the arts and the sciences is storytelling. In both scenarios you’re building worlds, and creating an understanding of the mechanisms that make the system work (or not work), and the relationships within that bubble.

    Eleonora Moratto is the Biology Ballerina. She is a freelance professional ballet dancer, and is currently completing her PhD in plant pathogen interactions. Join us as we speak about Eleonora’s work exploring electrical fields and plant immune systems, and her journey as a sciartist.

    Evolving research says COVID leaves many people at heightened risk for other infections

    "Cells in the human body do this naturally as they age, but COVID-19 causes healthy #T-cells to die that would otherwise be available to fight off infections."
