Proteomic profiling shown more accurate than traditional biomarkers in identifying liver cancer
As the incidence of liver cancer continues to grow-- fueled in large part, by rising rates of hepatitis C infections - so too does the need for tests to help diagnose the disease at an earlier stage. view more (2008-01-15)
Proteomics on a chip
'Golden approach' human proteine classification Proteomics on a chip Knowledge of the human proteome may provide us with even more insight than knowledge of DNA. This 'protein blueprint' of a human contains valuable information about cell properties and disease causes. A single cell, however, already consists of several thousands of proteines. To... view more... (2002-06-18)
Dr Lars Abrahmsén appointed Chief Scientific Officer of Affibody
Affibody today announced the strengthening of the management team by the appointment of Dr Lars Abrahmsén as Chief Scientific Officer. Lars Abrahmsén succeeds Stefan St'åhl, one of Affibody's founders. Professor St'åhl wished to return to academia, and has returned to his academic professorship, but remains as scientific... view more... (2004-01-27)
Novel diagnosis of preeclampsia with proteomic analysis
Researchers at Yale School of Medicine have found that analyzing proteins in urine is a simple and objective method to diagnose and classify preeclampsia (PE), a complication of pregnancy causing high blood pressure after 20 weeks of gestation. view more (2006-02-06)

Conaway Lab Identifies Novel Mechanism for Regulation of Gene Expression
The Stowers Institute's Conaway Lab has demonstrated that an enzyme called Uch37 is kept in check when it is part of a human chromatin remodeling complex, INO80. The results were published in today's issue of Molecular Cell. view more (2008-09-29)
Conaway Lab Demonstrates Mechanism by which Transcription Factor Controls Gene Expression
The Conaway Lab - led by Joan Conaway, Ph.D., and Ron Conaway, Ph.D., Investigators - has published findings that shed light on the role of the much-studied transcription factor YY1 in gene expression. Yong Cai, Ph.D., Research Specialist I, and Jingji Jin, Ph.D., Senior Research Associate, are the paper's coequal first authors. view more (2007-08-28)
Identifying the potential for tamoxifen resistance in patients
Tamoxifen is a widely used and highly successful drug in the treatment of breast cancer, though resistance to tamoxifen is still a concern in recurrent disease (affecting 25-35% of patients), since therapy resistant metastatic tumor cells are a major cause of death. view more (2009-06-11)
Nanowires can detect molecular signs of cancer, scientists find
Harvard University researchers have found that molecular markers indicating the presence of cancer in the body are readily detected in blood scanned by special arrays of silicon nanowires - even when these cancer markers constitute only one hundred-billionth of the protein present in a drop of blood. view more (2005-09-26)

Purifying parasites with light
Researchers have developed a clever method to purify parasitic organisms from their host cells, which will allow for more detailed proteomic studies and a deeper insight into the biology of organisms that cause millions of cases of disease each year. view more (2008-09-15)
Assembling the jigsaw puzzle of drug addiction
Using an integrative meta-analysis approach, researchers from the Center for Bioinformatics at Peking University in Beijing have assembled the most comprehensive gene atlas underlying drug addiction and identified five molecular pathways common to four different addictive drugs. view more (2008-01-07)
New biomarker method could increase the number of diagnostic tests for cancer
A team of researchers, including several from UCSF, has demonstrated that a new method for detecting and quantifying protein biomarkers in body fluids may ultimately make it possible to screen multiple biomarkers in hundreds of patient samples, thus ensuring that only the strongest biomarker candidates will advance down the development pipeline. view more (2009-06-30)
Study finds multiple markers for breast and ovarian cancer
Scientists from the Uppsala Branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR) have made a promising discovery that could improve the early diagnosis of breast and ovarian cancers through a simple blood test. view more (2005-08-01)

Protein changes in heart strengthen link between Alzheimer's disease and chronic heart failure
A team of U.S., Canadian and Italian scientists led by researchers at Johns Hopkins report evidence from studies in animals and humans supporting a link between Alzheimer's disease and chronic heart failure, two of the 10 leading causes of death in the United States. view more (2009-11-16)
From genome to therapy: integrating new technologies with drug development
The sequencing of human and other genomes has accelerated dramatically in recent years due, in large part, to the continuous development of increasingly powerful sequencing technologies. Indeed, complete genomes have now been sequenced, a feat unthinkable only a decade ago. We are entering an era in which the emphasis must now be on strategies to... view more... (1999-05-27)
