“These findings suggest that repeated exposure to flagellin proteins immunizes mice against chronic diseases by reducing immune response-related inflammation. Link to press release. Link to full study.”

“Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for normal brain function, contributing to cell membrane structure, nerve growth, neurotransmitter regulation, and reducing inflammation. Learn more about omega-3s in our comprehensive overview article.”

“People who undergo radiation therapy for head and neck cancers often experience oral mucositis – inflammation and ulceration of the mouth and throat that makes speaking, chewing, and swallowing difficult.”

“Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, or NAFLD, causes fat accumulation in the liver, inflammation, and insulin resistance. It's the most common chronic liver condition among people in the United States, affecting roughly 90 percent of people with obesity, or about 38 percent of the overall population.”

“However, combining treatments may be more effective for hip arthritis than exercise alone. One form of therapy that may help reduce the inflammation that drives arthritis is cold exposure. Learn more in our overview article.”

“One clock showed an average drop of 3.1 years, while another suggested a 9% slower pace of aging. Aging signals linked to inflammation, brain health, and heart function also declined in the semaglutide group, though measures of overall physical capacity remained unchanged.”

“At the molecular level, the treatments were linked to reduced activity in inflammation-related pathways, lower mTOR signaling (a central metabolic control pathway), and in standard-diet mice, increased protein persulfidation in the liver.”

“The mechanisms by which hyperbaric oxygen therapy works involve epigenetic modulation of gene expression to mediate factors that drive disease and inflammation. The case study involved a 58-year-old woman with early-onset, rapidly progressing Alzheimer's disease.”

“The receptor puts a double-whammy on cancer by sending signals that trigger cell death, or apoptosis, and shutting down a protein that causes inflammation, a precursor to cancer. [...]”

“The authors posited that the DNA-protective effects of EPA and DHA may be related to their capacity to resolve inflammation, a consequence of DNA damage. These findings suggest that omega-3s reduce DNA damage in children. Learn more about omega-3s in our overview article.”
