Possible Hepatitis C vaccine
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infects up to 500,000 people in the UK alone, many of the infections going undiagnosed. It is the single biggest cause of people requiring a liver transplant in Britain. view more (2007-09-06)
UV light improving chances of fighting cancer
Scientists at Newcastle University have developed a cancer fighting technology which uses UV light to activate antibodies which very specifically attack tumours. view more (2007-10-30)
Chopped up proteins trigger autoimmunity
Dutch biochemist Geurt Schilders has mapped several proteins that can regulate the activity of the human exosome and which play a role in the degradation of RNA molecules. view more (2008-01-25)
VTT develops one-step drug test
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland has developed an inexpensive one-step drug test method that can instantly detect abuse of medicine, drugs and doping substances. The test instantly and accurately gives the results e.g. from a saliva sample. The test is unique internationally, as it enables the detection of similar substances accurately and... view more...

Gene therapy protocol at UCSD activates immune system in patients with leukemia
A research team at the Moores Cancer Center at University of California, San Diego (UCSD) reports that patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who were treated with a gene therapy protocol began making antibodies that reacted against their own leukemia cells. view more (2008-02-12)
HIV isolate from Kenya provides clues for vaccine design
Two simple changes in its outer envelope protein could render the AIDS virus vulnerable to attack by the immune system, according to research from Kenya and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center published in PLoS Medicine. view more (2008-01-03)

Evidence of estrogen and progesterone hormone allergy has been discovered by Texas researchers
Some women with menstrual cycle disorders like asthma and migraine headaches may be experiencing allergies to their own estrogen and progesterone hormones, Texas researchers have discovered. view more (2006-03-31)
Heparin antibodies may pose risk in heart surgery patients
New research suggests that patients who develop antibodies to the anti-clotting drug heparin nearly double their risk of death or serious complication after heart surgery. view more (2005-12-05)
1918 flu antibodies resurrected from elderly survivors
Ninety years after the sweeping destruction of the 1918 flu pandemic, researchers at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt have recovered antibodies to the virus - from elderly survivors of the original outbreak. view more (2008-08-18)
Scientists at VTT and the University of Florida take immunotechnology to a new level
Scientists at VTT and the University of Florida take immunotechnology to a new level Mimicking the cell walls transport system by biocoated nanotubes opens novel possibilities for numerous applications Living cells transport selectively molecules in and out through their cell walls. This process is remarkably accurate and efficient. In... view more... (2002-07-04)
Scientists explain binding action of 2 key HIV antibodies; could lead to new vaccine design
A very close and detailed study of how the most robust antibodies work to block the HIV virus as it seeks entry into healthy cells has revealed a new direction for researchers hoping to design an effective vaccine. view more (2009-11-10)
Autism's origins: Mother's antibody production may affect fetal brain
The mothers of some autistic children may have made antibodies against their fetuses' brain tissue during pregnancy that crossed the placenta and caused changes that led to autism, suggests research led by Johns Hopkins Children's Center investigators and published in the February issue of the Journal of Neuroimmunology. view more (2008-02-26)
Early Promise Of Simple Screening For Coeliac Disease (p 945)
A research letter by Cuban investigators in this week's issue of THE LANCET highlights a new technique which could be used for screening of the intestinal disorder coeliac disease. The new approach is likely to be more user-friendly for patients as it is less invasive than conventional screening which relies on biopsy. The enzyme transglutaminase... view more... (2002-03-13)
How to confirm the causes of iron deficiency anemia in young women
Iron-deficiency anaemia (IDA) is commonly seen in women aged <50 years. The diagnostic workflow in young women affected by IDA is not clearly established. view more (2009-06-24)
Antibodies protect mice from developing respiratory tularemia
The respiratory form of tularemia, a potentially serious bacterial disease, is a significant public health concern because it is highly infectious, it has a high mortality rate if untreated, and it could be introduced into a population in an intentional act of bioterror. view more (2007-06-28)
Xerion Pharmaceuticals Enters Into Option Agreement For Cancer Targets From Tufts University
Martinsried, Germany and Cambridge, MA, February 26, 2003 - Xerion Pharmaceuticals announced today that it has acquired exclusive rights to cancer targets resulting from the collaboration between Xerion and the laboratory of Daniel G. Jay, Ph.D., Professor of Physiology at Tufts University. Xerion plans to generate therapeutic antibodies against... view more... (2003-02-26)
New research may lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis in families
Mayo Clinic researchers have found that first-degree relatives (i.e., parents, siblings, children) of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) are more likely to have the biomarker of the disease in their blood. view more (2007-09-11)
Antibody-based therapies effective at controlling malaria
Passive immunization through the development of fully human antibodies specific to Plasmodium falciparum may be effective at controlling the disease, report researchers led by Dr. Richard S. McIntosh from the University of Nottingham in a paper published this week in the open-access journal PLoS Pathogens. view more (2007-05-18)
Giving an additional early vaccination may reduce measles outbreaks
Outbreaks of measles in developing countries may be reduced by vaccinating infants at 4.5 months of age as well as at the World Health Organization's recommended routine vaccination at 9 months, according to a study published on BMJ.com today. view more (2008-07-25)
