From time to time, the human race advanced utilizing intelligence when the uncertainties cloud the horizons. Different sciences developed helped us in our well-being. The progress continues with solutions over some insurmountable difficulties. Knowledge of the new discoveries in some fields this year will help our understanding.
Here are some of the most significant scientific discoveries in 2024.
Lupus Cause and Cure: Scientists have discovered a cause of lupus and a possible way to reverse it. A study published in the journal Nature points to abnormalities in the immune system of lupus patients that is caused by a molecular abnormality.
Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease caused when the immune system attacks its own tissues. It can affect the joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart, and lungs. Treatment can help but can not cure. Link ⬇️

Brain Cell Repair: Scientists have found a way to repair brain cells impaired by a rare genetic disorder. A study published in the journal Nature found that a drug called antisense oligonucleotide allowed human neurons to develop normally despite carrying a mutation due to a genetic disorder called Timothy syndrome.
The approach may help researchers develop treatments for other genetic conditions, including some that cause schizophrenia, epilepsy, ADHD, and autism spectrum disorder. LINK BELOW ⬇️

Menstrual Blood Diagnostic Tool: Menstrual blood can potentially be used to measure blood sugar. In early 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new diagnostic menstrual pad called the Q-Pad and A1C Test by the biotechnology research company Qvin. Link ⬇️

Cell Therapy for Melanoma: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first cellular therapy for aggressive forms of melanoma. The treatment, called Amtagvi, is “designed to fight off advanced forms of melanoma by extracting and replicating T cells derived from a patient’s tumor.” Link ⬇️

Rhino IVF: Scientists were able to impregnate a southern white rhino using in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Researchers in Kenya implanted a southern white rhino embryo into another of the same species using the technique in September 2023, resulting in a successful pregnancy. Link below 🔻

__________
New Exoplanets: Scientists discovered six exoplanets that revolve around a star in a rare pattern called orbital resonance. This means that “for every six orbits completed by planet b, the closest planet to the star, the outermost planet g completes one.”
These discoveries help us to find extraterrestrial life, how our solar system evolved, and the system that created us, how it actually works! Link given below 🔻

Coral Reef Restoration: Coral bleaching has been a rapidly growing problem as climate change worsens. Without intervention, the reefs will continue to deteriorate. To counter this, scientists have explored the idea of a “coral gym,” essentially a “laboratory to make corals stronger.” Link ⬇️
__________
AI to Find Aliens: Scientists have created an artificial intelligence model that can detect alien life. The algorithm can “distinguish between samples of biological and nonbiological origin 90% of the time,” after being “trained using living cells, fossils, meteorites and lab-made chemicals.” Link ⬇️

Biotechnology advancements:
CRISPR Technology [Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats]
(CRISPR Cas9 was adapted from a naturally occurring ‘genome editing system‘ that bacteria use as ‘an immune defense.’ When infected with viruses, bacteria capture small pieces of the viruses’ DNA and insert them into their own DNA in a particular pattern to create segments known as CRISPR arrays and this grants bacteria immune defense against viruses.
Researchers are refining ‘CRISPR gene editing techniques’ to increase accuracy and reduce off-target effects.
The potential applications of CRISPR are expanding beyond human health to include agriculture, environmental science, and industrial biotechnology.
