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)
Treadmill training helps Down syndrome babies walk months earlier
Starting Down syndrome infants on treadmill training for just minutes a day can help them walk up to four or five months earlier than with only traditional physical therapy, a new study from the University of Michigan says. view more (2007-10-31)
Genetic mutation identified for eye complaint
An international research collaboration including research teams from the Children's Hospital in Boston (USA), King's College London and the Peninsula Medical School, has identified a gene that, when mutated, causes Duane syndrome. view more (2008-07-25)
HIV treatments improve health, but nutritional issues remain
Despite the success of highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART), people with HIV may still be at higher risk for nutritional deficiencies and abnormalities. view more (2006-12-26)
Noninvasive screening in early pregnancy reduces Down's births by 50 percent
Non-invasive screening of pregnant women with ultrasound early in pregnancy, combined with maternal blood analysis, has reduced the number of children born in Denmark with Down Syndrome by 50%. view more (2007-06-18)
Discovery of follicles offers hope of babies for Turner's syndrome girls
Lausanne, Switzerland: Swedish researchers have found that teenage girls with Turner's syndrome still have follicles in their ovaries which may be capable of producing eggs. This discovery offers hope that Turner's syndrome girls may be able to have babies in the future. Mr Julius Hreinsson, an embryologist in the Fertility Unit at Huddinge... view more... (2001-07-03)
New Drug for Children with High-Risk Leukemia
Each year, approximately 4,500 children in America are diagnosed with leukemia, according to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. A potentially deadly cancer of the blood, it is the most common cancer in children. view more (2009-07-29)
UCLA scientists reveal how deadly pediatric disorder develops in brain
A deadly brain disorder in toddlers may find its first treatment in drugs for Alzheimer's disease. view more (2009-05-07)
New findings explain genetic disorder's unique shift
Findings reported in this month's issue of PLoS Biology give insight into the unique characteristics of the birth defect known as Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), and at the same time, may help explain the way that a certain type of gene is expressed in all humans. view more (2008-08-26)
Understanding and diagnosing an inherited pain syndrome
Yale School of Medicine researchers report the first demonstration that a single mutation in a human sodium channel gene can trigger pain in people with an inherited pain syndrome known as primary erythromelalgia, according to a study published this month in the journal Brain. view more (2005-07-14)
Regular smoking substantially increases risk of asthma in adolescents
Adolescents who smoke cigarettes regularly have a significantly increased risk of developing asthma during their teens compared to their non-smoking peers, according to the latest results of the Children's Health Study (CHS). view more (2006-11-15)
New Down syndrome treatment suggested by Stanford/Packard study in mice
At birth, children with Down syndrome aren't developmentally delayed. But as they age, these kids fall behind. Memory deficits inherent in Down syndrome hinder learning, making it hard for the brain to collect experiences needed for normal cognitive development. view more (2009-11-19)
Unlocking biological secrets: Cornell scientists build 'nano-keys' to bind cell receptors and trigger allergic reactions
The tumblers of life continue to click as Cornell University researchers have fabricated a set of "nano-keys" on the molecular scale to interact with receptors on cell membranes and trigger larger-scale responses within cells - such as the release of histamines in an allergic response. view more (2006-02-17)
Successful treatment for acute heart failure remains elusive
In recent years, cardiologists have begun to view acute heart failure syndrome (AHFS) as a distinct condition, not merely a part of the chronic heart failure continuum. view more (2005-12-21)
Constant dryness in the mouth, what is the solution?
Dryness in the mouth is not an agreeable sensation and much less so if the condition becomes an illness. Effectively, there are illnesses related to lack of saliva, as is the case of the sicca-sicca disease and the Goujerot-Sjögren syndrome. The research regarding these uncommon illnesses began to be important in 1976 when new functions of... view more... (2003-09-11)
Largest review of Loeys-Dietz Syndrome to date
People with Loeys-Dietz syndrome have wideset eyes, a cleft palate or split uvula (the tissue that hangs down in the back of the throat), and a convoluted arrangement of the body's blood vessels, in addition to aggressive swelling of the aorta. view more (2006-08-24)
Potential pathway for drug intervention
A newly identified molecular pathway that directs stem cells to produce glial cells yields insights into the neurobiology of Down's syndrome and a number of central nervous system disorders characterized by too many glial cells, according to a recent study by researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. view more (2009-03-16)
Ume'å scientist honored for article on stress hormone and diabetes
Eva Rask at the Department of Public Health and Clinical Medicine, Ume'å University, Sweden, has been awarded a scholarship from the Swedish Association for Diabetology for the year's best scientific article in Swedish diabetes research in 2001. The article, published in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, describes how the... view more... (2002-04-08)
