New risk factor for heart disease identified
Physicians can now identify overweight people at very high risk of developing heart disease, thanks to research published this week in BMC Cardiovascular Disorders. People who suffer from heart disease are more likely to produce smaller versions of a protein called apolipoprotein(a). Being overweight increases your risk of suffering from heart... view more...

Biomarkers of response to VEGF pathway-targeted therapy discovered for renal cell carcinoma
Angiogenesis inhibitors can be far more effective in treating metastatic clear cell renal cell cancer (RCC)-an aggressive form of the most common kind of kidney cancer that is also rich in blood supply-than traditional treatments, according to accumulating evidence. view more (2006-09-14)
Leicester scientists seek to disarm TB's 'molecular weapon'
Scientists at the University of Leicester are claiming a new advance in their fight against the resurgence of TB in Britain. view more (2008-03-06)
Pitt, NETL researchers report molecular chain reaction thought to be impossible
People said it couldn't be done, but researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and the U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Pittsburgh demonstrated a molecular chain reaction on a metal surface, a nanoscale process with sizable potential in areas from nanotechnology to developing information storage... view more...

Mixing genomics and geography yields insights into life and environment
In an upcoming issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Yale researchers used newly developed mathematical models to analyze huge amounts of data on physical characteristics such as temperature and salinity in different ocean habitats and metabolic activity in marine micro-organisms. view more (2009-01-23)
Screening for left ventricular dysfunction may have less value than thought
The value and cost-effectiveness of screening for left ventricular (LV) dysfunction remains unclear, particularly since specific, evidence-based treatments are not available for the majority of patients with preserved systolic dysfunction. view more (2009-06-12)
MIT gas sensor is tiny, quick
Engineers at MIT are developing a tiny sensor that could be used to detect minute quantities of hazardous gases, including toxic industrial chemicals and chemical warfare agents, much more quickly than current devices. view more (2008-01-14)
Getting on 'the GABA receptor shuttle' to treat anxiety disorders
There are increasingly precise molecular insights into ways that stress exposure leads to fear and through which fear extinction resolves these fear states. view more (2009-10-22)
Evolution study tightens human-chimp connection
Scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology have found genetic evidence that seems to support a controversial hypothesis that humans and chimpanzees may be more closely related to each other than chimps are to the other two species of great apes - gorillas and orangutans. view more (2006-01-24)
What Makes The Scorpion`S Sting Deadly Poisonous?
Even the scorpion`s exterior warns that this is a dangerous animal. And it proves to be true, as nothing good comes out when small animals and even human beings meet with this arthropod species: its sting causes a sharp pain, some tropical scorpion`s sting is often fatal for the victim. The scientists from the Moscow Institute for Organoelement... view more... (2002-03-15)
GEN reports on enhancing the applications of qPCR
Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology is experiencing a surge of interest and rapid expansion as a result of advances such as instrumentation that pushes capacity to 1,536 wells and optimization-free multiplexing. view more (2009-11-19)
Scripps research scientists develop general-purpose method for detecting trace chemicals
Described in an advance, online publication of the journal Nature Biotechnology on February 22, 2009, the team's general method could be adapted for detecting a wide variety of compounds, including many that are relevant to diagnostic medicine and environmental work. view more (2009-02-26)

In a major feat of nanotechnology engineering researchers from Harvard University have demonstrated a laser with a wide-range of potential applications in chemistry, biology and medicine. view more (2007-10-23)
Researchers identify gene that regulates tumors in neuroblastoma
Virginia Commonwealth University researchers have identified a gene that may play a key role in regulating tumor progression in neuroblastoma, a form of cancer usually found in young children. view more (2009-06-02)
New gene for rheumatism identified
A genetic variant that can explain the occurrence of a type of rheumatic disorder called SLE has been identified by a research team at Uppsala University, Sweden. The team, led by Associate Professor Marta Alarc'³n at the Rudbeck Laboratory, is presenting its finding in the latest issue of the scientific journal Nature Genetics. Nearly 6,000... view more...

New data demonstrate potential for early detection of Alzheimer's disease
Data published in the June issue of the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease demonstrated that minimally-invasive biospectroscopy was able to identify changes in oxidative stress (OS) levels in blood plasma, which may prove to be a useful biomarker in the early detection of Alzheimer's disease. view more (2009-06-17)
BIOTECHNICA 2003: At the Pulse of the Chip Lab
The clinical and industrial analytics as well as diagnostics show an increasing demand for more sensitive and more rapid detection methods using smallest sample volumes. Within the BMBF joint project "MODULAB" a „chip-based-lab" construction kit is developed in which all the necessary working steps can be performed in separate... view more... (2003-10-07)
Self monitoring of blood glucose levels helps patients with diabetes
Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) enables those with diabetes to modify their behavior, adjust their medicine and understand their disease to better manage it. view more (2009-10-02)
