HALT study: Black cohosh no better than placebo for hot flashes
The results of a federally funded study to examine whether black cohosh is an effective treatment for hot flashes and night sweats - common symptoms of menopause - found that black cohosh was no better than a dummy pill. view more (2006-12-19)
Making bacteria make useful proteins
By adapting a single protein on the surface of the bacterium Caulobacter crescentus, researchers at the University of British Columbia have turned it into a protein production factory, making useful proteins that can act as vaccines and drugs. view more (2009-09-08)
Novel, soy-based SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol supplement reduced hot flash frequency by nearly 59 percent
SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol, a novel soy germ-based ingredient in a supplement, improved menopausal symptoms, including significantly reducing hot flash frequency by nearly 59 percent, according to a peer-reviewed study in Japanese women. view more (2009-10-09)
Amyloid beta protein gets bum rap
While too much amyloid beta protein in the brain is linked to the development of Alzheimer's disease, not enough of the protein in healthy brains can cause learning problems and forgetfulness, Saint Louis University scientists have found. view more (2009-11-10)
Protein binds whenever it can
Dutch cancer researcher Joost Martens has discovered that the protein p300, which plays an important role in the correct transcription of DNA to RNA, can bind to DNA at several sites. The protein can also occupy a position in various complexes, each with its own protein composition. This knowledge is important for gaining a better understanding of... view more... (2003-06-24)
Insects take a bigger bite out of plants in a higher CO2 world
Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are rising at an alarming rate, and new research indicates that soybean plant defenses go down as CO2 goes up. Elevated CO2 impairs a key component of the plant's defenses against leaf-eating insects, according to the report. view more (2008-03-25)

Birth control has long-term effect on hormone exposure
Researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine may be one step closer to understanding why past oral contraceptive use dramatically lowers the risk of ovarian and uterine cancers later in life. view more (2008-10-21)
Menopausal women don't get enough guidance on treatment options
Few women are consulting their doctors before opting to use herbal therapies and soy products to treat their menopausal symptoms. view more (2006-06-19)
New prion protein discovered by Canadian scientists may offer insight into mad cow disease
Scientists have discovered a new protein that may offer fresh insights into brain function in mad cow disease. "Our team has defined a second prion protein called 'Shadoo', that exists in addition to the well-known prion protein called 'PrP' " said Professor David Westaway, director of the Centre for Prions and Protein Folding Diseases... view more...

Flaxseed shows potential to reduce hot flashes
Data from a new Mayo Clinic (http://mayoclinic.edu) study suggest that dietary therapy using flaxseed can decrease hot flashes in postmenopausal women who do not take estrogen. view more (2007-08-30)
New collaboration between Amersham Biosciences and Affibody increases potential in protein purification
Under the agreement, the two companies will work to develop affinity-based products for use in the production processes for protein-based pharmaceuticals. The development of these products will be based on Affibodies™, a novel class of small, robust affinity proteins designed to bind desired protein targets. Financial details of the... view more...

Aspirin discovery may improve cancer treatments
Salicylates, including aspirin, are used to treat a range of inflammatory conditions and can be used to prevent diseases such as cancer, but the way aspirin works is not yet fully understood. view more (2007-04-06)
Students work hand in glove for business success
A large number of disposable gloves used in surgery are punctured or damaged during operations, bringing a high risk of infecting medical staff and patients. Now five enterprising University of York students have devised an imaginary new glove which could warn when it has been damaged and may pass on diseases such as HIV or hepatitis. Currently... view more... (2002-01-15)
Making sense of the human genome: researchers characterize a crucial family of signaling proteins in the human genome
In this month's Genome Biology, Mitch Kostich and colleagues from the Schering-Plough Research Institute (NJ, USA) have identified and mapped an important group of molecules known as protein kinases. These molecules are central to the communication of information both within and between cells, in a process known as cell signaling. Defective... view more... (2002-08-23)

Researchers demonstrate potential mechanism of food allergy
Researchers have identified one of the proteins that may be responsible for causing food allergies, which could lead to the development of more accurate non-invasive tests to identify true food allergies. view more (2006-07-24)
Who found some new mechanisms of HBV virulence?
This dreadful HBV is small in size. The genome of this virus is a partial double stranded circle. When made fully double stranded, this genome carries about 3000 base pairs, compared to 200 kilo base pairs of the genome of the smallpox virus. view more (2008-02-25)
