Could “miracle” molecule make humans bulletproof against snake bites?
Scientists have isolated a specific protein in snake venom that induces internal bleeding. By targeting this protein with a specific antibody, researchers were able to prevent cell-to-cell adhesion which would cause hemorrhage. Researchers found that animals resistant to hemorrhage-inducing venom carried a variation of the protein which presumably protects them from death. While still in […]

89-year-old “SuperAger” found to have brain function of 25-year-old… doctors baffled as “brain decline” theories blown away
