Exciting new research on andrographolide (from Andrographis paniculata) head-to-head with NSAIDs in a cell model of inflammation
Check out our latest research about the value of plant-derived andrographolide as an alternative to NSAIDs when treating the 'Cytokine Storm', published in PLOS ONE. Dr. Mitchell Low (first author) would love to answer any questions.

TB care and delivery needs to get closer to patient and communities for us to successfully eliminate it. The tongue swab will be a potential game change in helping identify a lot of vulnerable TB cases much sooner, bringing diagnostic tech closer to the patient, especially in low-resource settings. Treemouse had partnered with Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. on assessing the adoption feasability of a tongue swab as well as 2 other low-tech, diagnostic tools that are under-development. Our study had covered India and South Africa, accounting for almost half of the world's TB burden. We assessed how readily would the healthcare system (public and private) adopt these tools, where would they fit in with respect to the current protocols and what kind of regulatory support was needed to introduce them. Sputum collection remains an unpleasant experience for the patient and the health workers involved in the process. It is therefore very encouraging to see the technology maturing to deliver on patient-centric TB care. #patientcentrictbcare #tbmuktbharat #humancenteredstrategy #healthcare
Tounge swabs is a promising additional sample type with potential to enable TB testing at the primary health care level or in communites. In this new paper we demonstrate that Mtb from the tongue dorsum biofilm are viable and can be grown in culture, an important piece in our understanding of what this new sample actually captures.

There is significant progress on the journey to #endTB and can be hopeful as we build our capacity to prevent it by scaling up TB Preventive Therapy, High quality screening by leveraging the Digital X-Ray Technology, early TB detection by onboarding alternative sample types and newer cost effective technologies, shorter yet effective TB treatment for both Susceptible and Resistant TB strains, Health education among others. We appreciate all the stakeholders, especially the valuable advocates, scientists, researchers, funding agencies, governments and the implementing mechanisms.

So our moms are not wrong when they force us to drink more water when we are ill. Read more about how T cells mobilization is assisted by salt and water in this insightful article !
Researchers at the Crick with Imperial College London, King's College London and University of Cambridge have made a key finding about how immune cells move. They showed that taking in salt and water at their front end allows the cells to move around and get where they need to go inside our bodies💧🧂 Read more from Leonard de Boer and Victor Tybulewicz 👇 https://lnkd.in/e-pzqdiD
