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.

FEVER IN EARLY PREGNANCY HARMS YOUR BABY

Researchers have known for decades that fevers in the first trimester of pregnancy increase risk for some heart defects and facial deformities such as cleft lip or palate. But they have not known the reason for those defects.They thougt it was due to the root cause of the fever.It may be virus or bacteria. Recently researchers of the Duke University Medical Center has found that fever it self cause those defects and it does not depend on the root cause. Fever in first three to eight weeks of pregnancy can interfere with the development of heart and face of the fetus.According to results of the research they suggest a portion of congenital birth defects could be prevented by lowering the mother's fever with the judicious use of acetaminophen during the first trimester.Some Non Steroidal anti-inflammatory Drugs(NSAIDs) like ibuprofen and aspirin can also reduce the fever, but they have some adverse effects on late stages of the pregnancy.So those drugs are not good for use.

Even brief maternal deprivation early in life alters adult brain function and cognition: Rat study

May 3, 2018 Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis School of Science When a baby is taken from its mother for even a brief period early in life, this traumatic event significantly alters the future, adult function of the brain, according to a new animal model study. These changes in the brain are similar to disturbances in brain structure and function that are found in people at risk for neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia
