Eye-staining technique offers early detection for dry eye syndrome
Lissamine green sounds like the latest cleaning sensation being hawked on television and probably not something you would want to get in your eyes. view more (2007-08-20)
Researchers identify proteins involved in new neurodegenerative syndrome
The interplay of two proteins that bind to messenger RNA, a molecule that mediates translation of the information encoded in genes into proteins, triggers the appearance of fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FTAX), a late-life disorder associated with the gene that causes fragile X syndrome in children. view more (2007-08-16)
Scientists link fragile X tremor/ataxia syndrome to binding protein in RNA
Scientists have discovered a key protein in the toxic brain pathway that leads to fragile X tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), an inherited neurodegenerative disorder. view more (2007-08-16)
Protein 'chatter' linked to cancer activation
Scientists have found the existence of cross-talk between human chromosome ends and the protein complexes central to the stability of the entire human genome, a "chat" that contributes to cancer development. view more (2007-08-14)
Diet and regular soft drinks linked to increase in risk factors for heart disease
Drinking more than one soft drink daily - whether it's regular or diet - may be associated with an increase in the risk factors for heart disease, Framingham researchers reported in Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association. view more (2007-07-24)

Study finds HIV protease inhibitor drugs may adversely affect the scaffolding of the cell nucleus
UCLA scientists, along with collaborators from Purdue University, have demonstrated that HIV protease inhibitors - crucial drugs for HIV treatment - block a cellular enzyme important for generating the structural scaffolding for the cell nucleus. view more (2007-07-17)
Eye test causes severe lethargy in infants
New research suggests that an eyedrop used to diagnose a rare syndrome in infants can cause severe lethargy lasting up to 10 hours and requiring hospital admission and oxygen administration. view more (2007-07-17)
Metabolic syndrome -- don't blame the belly fat
Abdominal fat, the spare tire that many of us carry, has long been implicated as a primary suspect in causing the metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that includes the most dangerous heart attack risk factors: prediabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure, and changes in cholesterol. view more (2007-07-17)
Research Finds Faster Grammar Skills in Children with Tourette's
Children with Tourette's syndrome may have to put up with some unwanted movement and verbal tics, but neuroscientists at Georgetown University Medical Center and the Kennedy Krieger Institute have found that they are much quicker at processing certain mental grammar skills than are children without the disorder. view more (2007-07-16)
Chronic fatigue: clues in the blood
Researchers at UNSW believe that blood may hold vital insights into what is happening in the brain of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). view more (2007-07-09)
Double identities lie behind chromosome disorders
Chromosome disorders in sex cells cause infertility, miscarriage and irregular numbers of chromosomes (aneuploidy) in neonates. A new study from Karolinska Institutet published in the scientific journal Nature Genetics shows how chromosome disorders can arise when sex cells are formed. view more (2007-07-09)
Intensive-care patients with alcohol problems are more likely to require mechanical ventilation
More than 300,000 patients receive mechanical ventilation during intensive care per year in the United States, even though the hospital mortality rate for ventilated patients can approach 50 percent. view more (2007-06-26)
SARS survivors recover from physical illness, but may experience mental health decline
