Cholesterol could be key to treating fetal alcohol syndrome
Small amounts of alcohol can interfere with the growth of a fetus, but added cholesterol may help prevent a wide array of neurological and physical defects from alcohol exposure, according to a new study in laboratory fish. view more (2007-03-09)
Study unveils how West Nile virus evades immune defenses, points to vaccine development
West Nile virus evades the body's immune defenses by blocking immune signaling by a protein receptor, a finding that could pave the way for a vaccine to protect against North American strains of the virus. view more (2006-10-05)
Rapamycin shown to inhibit angiogenesis
Scientists have long known that the blood vessels of tumors differ markedly from normal blood vessels. Now, a research team led by scientists at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) has identified a signaling pathway which, when activated, transforms otherwise healthy blood vessels into the leaky, misshapen vasculature that characterizes... view more...

Researchers identify new risk factor gene for rheumatoid arthritis
Scientists at The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research and a team of collaborators from across the country have identified a new risk factor gene for rheumatoid arthritis. view more (2009-06-10)
UC Davis researchers discover novel pathway to increased inflammation in diabetes patients
Researchers at UC Davis Health System have discovered a novel pathway that results in increased inflammation of blood vessels in patients with type 1 diabetes. view more (2007-11-28)
Cancer gene drives pivotal decision in early brain development
A gene linked to pediatric brain tumors is an essential driver of early brain development, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have found. view more (2007-11-14)
Atherosclerosis studied at the cellular level
A McMaster University study on atherosclerosis will be featured on the cover of the December issue of the high impact American Heart Association scientific journal, Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology. view more (2005-12-02)
Study pries into ovarian cancer's deadly secrets
A new University of Michigan Medical School study sheds light on cell defects that lead to one common type of ovarian cancer and puts forth a promising new mouse model that already is being used for preclinical drug testing. view more (2007-04-12)
GABA halts stem cell production in the brain
Release of the neurotransmitter GABA by adult neuronal precursor cells that develop into neurons limits stem cell proliferation, according to a study at Yale School of Medicine in the September issue of Nature Neuroscience. view more (2005-09-02)
Cell signaling discovery yields heart disease clues
A pulsing heart cell is giving Oregon Health & Science University researchers insight into how it sends and receives signals, and that's providing clues into how heart disease and other disorders develop. view more (2005-09-23)

Stress Lessons From Yeast
The humble yeast can teach us vital lessons in coping with stress, according to researchers from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. Speaking tomorrow, Thursday 11 September 2003, at the Society for General Microbiology's meeting at UMIST in Manchester, Dr Jan Quinn will explain how she and colleagues have tracked stress responses in yeast to... view more...

How does a zebrafish grow a new tail?
If a zebrafish loses a chunk of its tail fin, it'll grow back within a week. Like lizards, newts, and frogs, a zebrafish can replace surprisingly complex body parts. A tail fin, for example, has many different types of cells and is a very intricate structure. It is the fish version of an arm or leg. view more (2006-12-27)
Long-term memory controlled by molecular pathway at synapses
Harvard University biologists have identified a molecular pathway active in neurons that interacts with RNA to regulate the formation of long-term memory in fruit flies. view more (2006-01-13)
Cellular pathway yields potential new weapon in vaccine arsenal
When a cell has to destroy any of its organelles or protein aggregates, it envelopes them in a membrane, forming an autophagosome, and then moves them to another compartment, the lysosome, for digestion. Two years ago, Rockefeller University assistant professor Christian Münz showed that this process, called autophagy, sensitizes cells for... view more... (2006-12-27)
New clue into how brain stem cells develop into cells which repair damaged tissue
The joint research, funded by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and the UK MS Society as well as the National Institutes of Health and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, was conducted by scientists at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and University of Cambridge and was published today (01 July) in the journal Genes and... view more...

OHSU School of Dentistry team discovers potential new target for treating craniofacial pain problems
Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University's School of Dentistry have uncovered an interaction between two proteins in the nerve cells that carry pain information from the head and neck to the brain. view more (2006-10-31)
UCSD researchers discover variants of natural tumor suppressor
Building on their 2005 discovery of an enzyme that is a natural tumor suppressor, researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine have now identified two variants of that enzyme which could provide new targets for therapies to treat diabetes, heart and neurological disease. view more (2007-04-10)
Researchers Pinpoint Neural Nanoblockers in Carbon Nanotubes
A team of Brown University scientists has pinpointed why carbon nanotubes tend to block a critical signaling pathway in neurons. view more (2009-08-28)
2 different neural pathways regulate loss and regain of consciousness during general anesthesia
University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine researchers have answered long-running questions about the way that anesthetics act on the body, by showing that the cellular pathway for emerging from anesthesia is different from the one that drugs take to put patients to sleep during operations. view more (2008-01-14)
