Israeli scientists have pinpointed a crucial network of immune cells that allows humans to digest food safely without triggering harmful reactions.

The discovery, led by researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science (WIS), sheds new light on oral tolerance, the body's ability to recognise food as harmless and prevent an immune system attack, news agency reported.

This vital system stops everyday foods from causing inflammation while still letting the immune system fight off infections.

The breakthrough could pave the way for new treatments for food allergies, sensitivities, and disorders like celiac disease. By understanding how this system works, scientists hope to correct what goes wrong when the body mistakenly attacks food.

"If an aggressor fires across the border, he will be swiftly neutralised, peace accords notwithstanding. The immune system operates on a similar principle," said Dr. Ranit Kedmi from Weizmann’s Systems Immunology Department.

South Korea's hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) sector is facing a sharp downturn this year, with both domestic sales and exports falling significantly amid a lack of demand, industry data showed on Wednesday.

According to the Korea Automobile and Mobility Association (KAMA), only 18 hydrogen vehicles, including both passenger and commercial models, were exported from January to April, down 70 percent from 60 units a year ago.

Domestic sales came to 965 units over the cited period, raising concerns that the annual tally may dip to the lowest in years, reports news agency.

Hyundai Motor Co., which had led the global hydrogen vehicle market with models like the Nexo and the Xcient commercial truck, is losing momentum due to limited model availability and a lack of hydrogen infrastructure.

The domestic benchmark indices opened marginally lower on Wednesday amid mixed global cues as selling was seen in the FMCG and auto sectors in the early trade.

At around 9.26 am, Sensex was trading 92.61 points or 0.11 per cent down at 81,459.02 while the Nifty declined 16.75 point or 0.07 per cent at 24,809.45.

Nifty Bank was up 78.15 points or 0.14 per cent at 55,430.95. The Nifty Midcap 100 index was trading at 57,326.05 after rising 171.55 points or 0.30 per cent. Nifty Smallcap 100 index was at 17,839.40 after climbing 114.25 points or 0.64 per cent.

According to analysts, Nifty ended lower yesterday in a rather volatile trading session. Technically, 24,462 remains a critical swing low. If it holds - and this is the preferred view - the market will target first resistance at 25,116 and then 25,390.
