New Technology for Individualized Treatments

18/06/2013 - A research team have enhanced a device they developed to identify and "grab" circulating tumor cells, or CTCs, that break away from cancers and enter the blood, often leading to the spread of cancer to other parts of the body. read more

Fingernails Reveal Clues to Regeneration

14/06/2013 - Researchers discover biochemical pathway that links nail growth to fingertip regeneration. read more

Virus Restores Sight

14/06/2013 - Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have developed a new method to insert genes into eye cells that could greatly expand gene therapy to help restore sight to patients with blinding diseases. read more

Hearing Loss Clue Uncovered

13/06/2013 - A novel genetic mutation was first identified in 2010 as causing hearing loss in humans. Researchers have now discovered that this mutation induces malfunction of an inhibitor of an enzyme commonly found in our body that destroys proteins. read more

Tracking Drug Action in the Pancreas

12/06/2013 - UK and Australian scientists have been able to show ways in which we can markedly improve drug targeting of solid tumors, using tiny 'biosensors' along with new advanced imaging techniques. read more

A Path to Lower-risk Painkillers

11/06/2013 - New findings provide vital step towards exploring pain medications that may lower risks of prescription drug abuse and side effects of painkillers. read more

Virus Exploits Immune Response to Bolster Infection

10/06/2013 - Researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and colleagues discovered that the herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1), which affects an estimated 50 to 80 percent of all American adults, exploits an immune system receptor to boost its infectivity and ability to cause disease. read more

3-D Map of Blood Vessels

10/06/2013 - Blood vessels within a sensory area of the mammalian brain loop and connect in unexpected ways, a new map has revealed. The study describes vascular architecture within a well-known region of the cerebral cortex and explores what that structure means for functional imaging of the brain and the onset of a kind of dementia. read more

Protein Block Stops Vascular Damage

06/06/2013 - Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered how to stop the destructive process that leads to cardiovascular disease in diabetic laboratory animals. read more

Gut Microbiota Can Predict Diabetes

05/06/2013 - Intestinal bacteria may have a greater influence on us than was previously thought. In a new study Swedish researchers show that patients with type 2 diabetes have an altered gut microbiota. read more
