Keeping amyloid-and Alzheimer's-in check
Researchers have identified a protein that reins in the rogue activity of the molecules that make the amyloid-beta protein-which may prevent normal brain function in people with Alzheimer's disease. view more (2006-04-27)
Regulatory pathway in brain development possible basis for malformations
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine have identified a genetic regulator of brain development that sheds new light on how immature neural cells choose between proliferation and differentiation. view more (2006-12-05)
MIT researchers unravel bacteria communication pathways
MIT researchers have figured out how bacteria ensure that they respond correctly to hundreds of incoming signals from their environment. view more (2008-06-13)
Grape powder blocks genes linked to colon cancer
Low doses of freeze-dried grape powder inhibit genes linked to the development of sporadic colorectal cancer, University of California, Irvine cancer researchers found. view more (2007-11-15)
Joslin researchers uncover potential role of leptin in diabetes
A new Joslin-led study has shown that leptin, a hormone known mainly for regulating appetite control and energy metabolism, plays a major role in islet cell growth and insulin secretion. view more (2007-10-02)
MU Researchers Make Discovery in Molecular Mechanics of Phototropism
In a paper published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, scientists at the University of Missouri-Columbia reported molecular-level discoveries about the mechanisms of phototropism, the directional growth of plants toward or away from light. view more (2007-07-09)
Infection-fighting protein could be key to autoimmune disease, say U-M scientists
Scientists at the University of Michigan Medical School have discovered that a protein called cryopyrin responds to invading bacteria by triggering the activation of a powerful inflammatory molecule called IL-1beta, which signals the immune system to attack pathogens and induces fever to protect the body against infection. view more (2006-01-12)
Birth defect gene identified
Birth defects of the face and skull are relatively common in humans, striking one in 500 to 1,000 babies. Defects can include cleft lip or palate, congenitally missing teeth and severe malformations of the skull. view more (2005-12-23)
UIC researchers show how cancer-preventing foods work
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago are unraveling the biochemical mechanism by which functional foods combat cancer. view more (2005-07-11)
Protein holds back growth of head and neck tumors
A protein associated with the growth of head and neck tumors may be a tumor suppressor that could prevent the spread of cancer when it is expressed above normal levels. view more (2006-02-01)
Newly discovered molecule promises better treatments for heart attacks, heart surgery
Scientists have discovered a compound that could lead to new treatments for heart attacks as well as methods to protect hearts during open heart surgery and other situations in which blood flow to the heart is interrupted. view more (2008-09-12)
June 25, 2009 A Trio of Signals Converge to Induce Liver and Pancreas Cell Development in the Embryo
Understanding the molecular signals that guide early cells in the embryo to develop into different organs provides insight into ways that tissues regenerate and how stem cells can be used for new therapies. view more (2009-06-29)
Researchers writing story of the 'alcoholic lung'
Chronic alcohol abuse disrupts the proteins that keep fluids out of the lung, lowers a protective antioxidant, disrupts immune defenses and can lead to a condition known as 'alcoholic lung,' according to research to be presented at the conference, "Physiological Genomics and Proteomics of Lung Disease." view more (2006-11-03)
New approach for growing bone comes from Duke preclinical research
The natural cycle of building bone to maintain skeletal strength and then breaking it down for the body's calcium needs is delicately balanced, but diseases like osteoporosis break down too much bone without adequate bone replacement, leading to bone fractures. view more (2009-10-08)
Stress signals link pre-existing sickness with susceptibility to bacterial infection
Mitochondrial diseases disrupt the power generating machinery within cells and increase a person's susceptibility to bacterial infection, particularly in the lungs or respiratory tract. view more (2009-07-28)
Findings show insulin - not genes - linked to obesity
Researchers have uncovered new evidence suggesting factors other than genes could cause obesity, finding that genetically identical cells store widely differing amounts of fat depending on subtle variations in how cells process insulin. view more (2009-04-15)
Technique could speed new medulloblastoma drugs
Investigators at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have developed a strategy to speed future development of more effective and less toxic treatments for medulloblastoma, a type of brain cancer. view more (2006-04-18)
Paradoxical Alzheimer's finding may shed new light on memory loss
Do you remember the seventh song that played on your radio on the way to work yesterday? Most of us don't, thanks to a normal forgetting process that is constantly "cleaning house" - culling inconsequential information from our brains. view more (2008-03-13)
Gladstone scientists identify single microRNA that controls blood vessel development
Scientists from the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease (GICD) and UCSF have identified a key regulatory factor that controls development of the human vascular system, the extensive network of arteries, veins, and capillaries that allow blood to reach all tissues and organs. view more (2008-08-12)
Possible Drug Target Found for One of the Most Aggressive Breast Cancers
Van Andel Research Institute (VARI) investigators have identified a gene that could be an important therapeutic target in the treatment of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer. Currently, patients with these cancers have few treatment options. view more (2009-07-09)
