Dr. Baliga's 'Got Knowledge Doc?' PODKASTS

Exciting new insights from Science Translational Medicine (2025)!   Researchers uncovered how the GAS6–AXL–FAK axis determines whether wounds heal with scars or regeneration. πŸ§¬πŸ’‰   πŸ’‘ Activating AXL with GAS6 rewires fibrotic healing into scarless repair β€” especially in the oral mucosa. πŸ’₯ Blocking AXL flips the script, leading to fibrosis even in normally regenerative tissues.   This could revolutionize how we approach scar prevention and tissue regeneration. 🩹✨   #RegenerativeMedicine #WoundHealing #Fibrosis #AXL #FAK #PrecisionMedicine #GAS6 #scRNAseq...

🧠🧬 New research alert! Plasma proteomics from 44,000+ UK Biobank participants reveals that the brain and immune system are powerful predictors of longevity.   A youthful brain and immune system cut mortality risk nearly in halfβ€”more so than any other organ. This could reshape how we think about aging, diagnostics, and preventive medicine.   πŸ“Š Machine learning + blood proteins = next-gen aging biomarkers. πŸ”— Study link: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41591-025-03798-1   #Longevity #Proteomics #BrainHealth #ImmuneSystem #Aging #Biomarkers #PrecisionMedicine #UKBiobank...
