Identified mechanism in the malaria parasite to help it adapt to infected individuals
Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for the most severe forms of human malaria. Invasion of host red blood cells is an essential step of the complex life cycle of this parasite. view more (2007-08-03)
'Invisible' bacteria dupe the human immune system
Scientists at the University of York have characterised an important new step in the mechanism used by bacteria to evade our immune system. view more (2008-02-20)
Novel mechanism for DNA replication discovered
Since the discovery of the structure of DNA by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953, the paradigm for DNA replication has stated that the DNA itself codes for the appropriate pairings for replication. view more (2005-09-30)
Researchers Uncover a Novel Mechanism of Action of a Potential New Drug for the Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis
Virginia Commonwealth University researchers have identified a unique mechanism of action of a new drug that shows great promise for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. view more (2006-10-12)
Immunologists find better way to boost the immune system
Immunologists have discovered how to manipulate the immune system to increase its power and protect the body from successive viral infections. view more (2008-01-23)
Researchers identify target for therapeutic drugs to fight most common adult brain cancer
A research team at UT Southwestern Medical Center has discovered a cell-signaling mechanism instrumental in the most common brain cancer in adults. view more (2006-01-16)
Retinol for combating leukemia cells
Vitamin A, also known as retinol, is present in milk, liver, egg yolk, butter and other foodstuffs and as carotene in vegetables that have a yellow-orange colour, such as carrots and pumpkins. view more (2006-01-09)
Genome circularization and RNA virus replication
As featured on the cover of the August 15th issue of G&D, an Argentinian research team, led by Dr. Andrea Gamarnik, report on their recent discovery of a novel mechanism of dengue virus replication. view more (2006-08-01)
Novel virus entry mechanism could lead to new drugs against poxviruses
Research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on 11 April describes how the Imperial College London team discovered the mechanism allowing Vaccinia virus to shed its outer lipid membrane and enter cells. The mechanism is unique in virology and paves the way for development of new antiviral drugs. view more (2006-04-12)
Diabetes research at UH 'crystalizes' with major finding
A University of Houston professor and his student have made a major discovery in the field of diabetes research and diagnosis, finding a new mechanism for the formation of insulin crystals in the pancreas. view more (2006-05-10)
Towards the mechanism of cell respiration
Researchers at the Institute of Biotechnology of the University of Helsinki have for the first time identified an internal electron transfer reaction that initiates the proton pump mechanism of the respiratory enzyme. view more (2006-04-06)
New stem-cell findings can help the body to cure itself
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have identified an important mechanism that regulates how many new cells are produced by each intestinal stem cell. The study is published in the latest issue of the prestigious scientific journal, Cell. view more (2006-06-16)
Bread mold may hold secret to eliminating disease-causing genes
When most people discover mold on their bread, they immediately throw it out. Others see a world of possibilities in the tiny fungus. A University of Missouri scientist, along with a collaborative research team, has examined a new mechanism in the reproductive cycle of a certain species of mold. view more (2008-05-09)
Researchers uncover E. coli's defense mechanism
The pathogenic forms of E. coli and Salmonella are usually transmitted to humans through undercooked meat, unwashed vegetables and cross contamination from surfaces on which these foods were prepared. view more (2005-09-29)
New insights into neural tube defects
Environmental and genetic factors lead to neural tube defects in 1 in every 1,000 births and cause 1 in 20 of every spontaneous abortion. One cause of these defects is the failure of cells within the neural tube to migrate to the middle of the developing neural tube. view more (2006-01-12)
UCR-led study identifies crucial mechanism involved in immune response against viruses
A research team led by UC Riverside scientists has shown that the common fruit fly can serve as an excellent model for studying the immunity animals are born with for fighting viral infections. view more (2006-03-24)
Researchers peg magnetism as key driver of high-temperature superconductivity
When it comes to superconductivity, magnetic excitations may top good vibrations. view more (2006-07-06)
Brandeis researchers propose model of neural circuit underlying working memory
Our ability to understand speech or decide which fruit in the store is freshest depends on the brain's dexterity in integrating information over time. view more (2005-12-21)
Cincinnati Children's researchers publish findings on potential target for leukemia treatment
Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center today announced the publication of pioneering research identifying the crucial role and novel mechanism of action of the protein RhoH GTPase in the development and activation of cells critical to the immune system. view more (2006-10-10)
The difference between fish and humans: scientists answer century-old developmental question
Embryologists at UCL (University College London) have helped solve an evolutionary riddle that has been puzzling scientists for over a century. view more (2007-10-11)
