NEANDERTHAL GENES CHANGED US ALL

NEANDERTHALS SHARED THERE GENES WITH HUMANS AND IT CHANGED OUR LIVES




Thousands years ago, Neanderthals lived with humans and they shared there brides.It caused mixing of Neanderthal genes with our genome.That cause lot of good as well as bad effects on Humans.

Between 2% and 4% of the genetic blueprint of present-day non-Africans came from Neanderthals.
Neanderthal genes have contributed to human immunity and modern diseases. They passed some genes that involving with type 2 Diabetes, Crhon's disease, long term depression,lupus, Billiary Cirrhosis and smoking addiction. Their gene affects our coagulation system as well.Some people, more prone to allergies, also have some genes of Neanderthals.

They have also passed good genes also, the genes involving skin pigmentation gave better advantage to adapt Asians to high sun exposure,climate changes and some of pathogens living in the environment.

Recently researchers found that Neanderthal genes contributed other characteristics like skin tone, hair color, sleep patterns and mood.

Researchers have lot to find about Neanderthals, until that be under the wings of Eagle.

Using mushrooms as a prebiotic may help improve glucose regulation

August 16, 2018 Penn State Eating white button mushrooms can create subtle shifts in the microbial community in the gut, which could improve the regulation of glucose in the liver, according to a team of researchers. They also suggest that better understanding this connection between mushrooms and gut microbes in mice could one day pave the way for new diabetes treatments and prevention strategies for people.

Green tea ingredient may ameliorate memory impairment, brain insulin resistance, and obesity

Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology  A study published online in The FASEB Journal, involving mice, suggests that EGCG (epigallocatechin-3-gallate), the most abundant catechin and biologically active component in green tea, could alleviate high-fat and high-fructose (HFFD)-induced insulin resistance and cognitive impairment. Previous research pointed to the potential of EGCG to treat a variety of human diseases, yet until now, EGCG's impact on insulin resistance and cognitive deficits triggered in the brain by a Western diet remained unclear. Journal Reference: Yashi Mi, Guoyuan Qi, Rong Fan, Qinglian Qiao, Yali Sun, Yuqi Gao, Xuebo Liu. EGCG ameliorates high-fat– and high-fructose–induced cognitive defects by regulating the IRS/AKT and ERK/CREB/BDNF. The FASEB Journal, 2017; fj.201700400RR DOI: 10.1096/fj.201700400RR

Air pollution reduces global life expectancy by more than one year

Specialized droplets interact with bacteria and can be analyzed using a smartphone Source:Massachusetts Institute of Technology Researchers have come up with a new way to test food for bacterial contamination. The test is based on a novel type of liquid droplet that can bind to bacterial proteins. This interaction, which can be detected either by the naked eye or with a smartphone, could offer a much faster and cheaper alternative to existing food safety tests.
