CAIRO Jan. 22(SEE)- A medical journey extended for 12 years in Japan,

led to a discovery of a substance that can prevent pneumonia. This discovery

was made by Dr. Yasser Zahran, an Egyptian scientist and assistant professor in

laboratory of anatomy, histology and cells, at Hokkaido University, in Japan.

Dr. Zahran told to “SEE” that, his journey started in 2006 when he

traveled to Japan through a scholarship; then worked at faculty of veterinary

medicine at Hokkaido University and specialized in histology.

After 12 years of research, he discovered an immune system located in

thorax, from which he extracted a substance of lymphocyte installation, to

prevent pneumonia infection.

The Egyptian doctor mentioned that, experiments conducted on mice –with

organic structures similar to human beings- showed positive results.

Eventually, Doctor Zahran confirmed that the medicine made of the above

mentioned substance, will be available for all people within 3 years, to resist

respiratory system diseases like; respiratory sensitization, pneumonia and

angina pectoris.

It’s worth mentioning that Dr. Yasser Zahran was born in Al Sharqia

governorate where he lived for about 25 years before traveling to Japan.
