MUMBAI, India, Jan. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Chromatin comprises a complex mixture of DNA and proteins and forms the structural basis of chromosomes in the cellular nuclei. When cells die, they release cell-free chromatin particles or "cfChPs" into the circulatory system. Emerging evidence indicates that cfChPs exert toxic effects by damaging the DNA of healthy cells and activating pro-inflammatory processes. Researchers from the Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research & Education in Cancer (ACTREC), Tata Memorial Centre (TMC), India, have recently demonstrated therapeutic benefits of a pro-oxidant mixture of resveratrol and copper, R-Cu, in patients undergoing chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer. Combining R with Cu (R-Cu) leads to the generation of free oxygen radicals which can inactivate the offending cfChPs.

"The accepted theory states that the universe is three-dimensionally flat, meaning it does not curve even at infinitely large distances.

Key Points: 
  • "The accepted theory states that the universe is three-dimensionally flat, meaning it does not curve even at infinitely large distances.
  • "The advent and understanding of quantum mechanics itself has led to remarkable technological advancement, and a unifying all-encompassing "Theory of Everything" would indubitably open numerous new unthought of technological pathways," concludes Mr. Waugh.
  • Title of original paper: Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity are fully compatible, and have a common origin: the expanding (hyper) balloon universe.
  • His research interests include unifying Physics and Cosmology into a single Theory of Everything and unveiling the leftover mysteries of our universe.
