Signal molecule holds possible key to tumour growth
Immunity to a cancer in chickens could shed light on ways to control certain human cancers according to scientists from the Institute for Animal Health (IAH). Their work on Marek's disease (MD) in chickens has identified the first natural model for specific Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and is published this week in PNAS (06-10 September... view more...

New study shows promise in reducing surgical risks associated with surgical bleeding
Surgeons may have a new patient safety tool to stop moderate surgical bleeding without some of the concerns associated with the current standard blood-clotting treatment. view more (2007-08-13)
THE BODY'S OVER REACTION TO GERMS IN RELATIONS TO SIDS
Research by, among others, Dr Caroline Blackwell of the University of Edinburgh's Department of Medical Microbiology suggests that many SIDS babies have been exposed to bacteria that can cause the body's natural defences to germs to 'over react'. view more (1999-03-16)
Modeling pathogen responses
The search for a vaccination against HIV has been in progress since 1984, with very little success. Traditional methods used for identifying potential cellular targets can be very costly and time-consuming. view more (2007-10-12)
Potential autoimmunity-inducing cells found in healthy adults
It's not just patients with autoimmune diseases like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that have self-attacking immune cells-healthy people have them too, according to a new report in the Journal of Experimental Medicine. view more (2008-12-22)
Vaccine thwarts the tangles of Alzheimer's
A new study by NYU Medical Center researchers shows for the first time that the immune system can combat the pathological form of tau protein, a key protein implicated in Alzheimer's disease. view more (2007-08-22)
Lupus more severe in patients with Southern European ancestry
ystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with a higher percentage of ancestry from southern Europe have more severe disease manifestations, according to new research presented today at EULAR 2008, the Annual Congress of the European League Against Rheumatism in Paris, France. view more (2008-06-12)
'Killer' B cells provide new link in the evolution of immunity
Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine have discovered a unique evolutionary link between the most primitive innate form of immune defense, which has survived in fish, to the more advanced, adaptive immune response present in humans and other mammals. view more (2006-10-04)
Statins may prevent miscarriages
Hospital for Special Surgery researchers have found that statins may be able to prevent miscarriages in women who are suffering from pregnancy complications caused by antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), according to a study in mice. view more (2008-10-13)

Researchers in Argentina have determined that night blindness is a new clinical symptom of Chagas disease. view more (2006-02-28)
Immune therapy could treat leukemias, autoimmune diseases, transplant rejection
In studies with mice, treatment with a new monoclonal antibody that targets immune system B cells has shown considerable promise for treating leukemias, autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection. view more (2005-10-12)
A new portable biosensor detects traces of contaminants in food more quickly and cheaply
Scientists at the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona (UAB), in cooperation with the CSIC, have developed a new electro-chemical biosensor which detects the presence, in food, of very small amounts of atrazine -one of the most widely used herbicides in agriculture and which also has very long lasting effects on the environment- as well as... view more...

Scripps research scientists find key culprits in lupus
The more than 1.5 million Americans with systemic lupus erythematosus (or lupus) suffer from a variety of symptoms that flare and subside, often including painful or swollen joints, extreme fatigue, skin rashes, fever, and kidney problems. view more (2009-06-30)
Experimental vaccine protects mice against deadly 1918 flu virus
Federal scientists have developed a vaccine that protects mice against the killer 1918 influenza virus. view more (2006-10-18)
Therapeutics company raises £500k from Oxford investors
BioAnalab Ltd, an Oxford University spin-off company, has raised over £500,000 from Oxford's business angels and investor groups in an extremely tough investment market for biotech funding. This is the first funding round for the company, which provides testing services to the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in monoclonal antibodies.... view more... (2003-03-07)
New method for testing condition of seeds
Wageningen UR develops method for testing condition of seeds Flow-cytometry, the technique for studying large numbers of individual cells in a fluid, can be combined with the use of special fluorescent colouring agents to form a valuable method of determining the health of seeds and seed consignments. This is shown in the thesis with which... view more... (2001-04-03)
Scientists Exploring Inflammation in Rheumatoid Arthritis Make Unexpected Discovery That One Day May Lead to New Treatments
What makes joints in people with rheumatoid arthritis, and related conditions like Lyme disease or lupus, so susceptible to attack by the body's immune system, leading to painful flare-ups and deterioration? The answer may surprise you. view more (2006-02-16)
New study shows potential to treat or prevent viral cancers
A new study, presented at the SNM 55th Annual Meeting, shows that radioimmunotherapy (RIT) targeting viral antigens offers a novel option to treat-or even prevent-many viral cancers by targeting cancer cells expressing viral antigens or infected cells before they convert into malignancy. view more (2008-06-17)
How to beat superbugs
HOSPITALS in Britain will next week begin testing a drug against superbugs that mimics the antibodies produced by our immune systems. With superbugs fast developing resistance to every antibiotic we can throw at them, alternative treatments are urgently needed. In 1990, 2 per cent of Staphylococcus... view more... (2002-05-23)
