Alzheimer's pathology related to episodic memory in those without dementia
Alzheimer's pathology can appear in the brains of older men and women without dementia or mild cognitive impairment. view more (2006-06-27)
Specific treatments for each type of sarcoma
The new molecular techniques allow designing specific treatments for a great number of sarcomas, according to Dr. Enrique de Alava, expert of the department of Pathologic Anatomy of the University Clinic of the University of Navarre. The molecular knowledge has become a very useful tool to study several diseases. In particular, it provides... view more... (2002-11-29)

Altering time of breast biopsy may improve mastectomy reconstruction process
Altering the standard step-by-step procedure that takes women facing a mastectomy from diagnosis to surgery to reconstruction can improve the process and help in determining if immediate reconstruction is the best course of action. view more (2005-10-11)
Complaints About Memory Are Associated With Alzheimer-Related Brain Damage
Researchers at Rush University Medical Center found that having complaints about memory problems is associated with changes in the brain related to Alzheimer's disease. They reported their findings in the November 2006 issue of Neurology. view more (2006-12-04)
Parkinson's mutation stunts neurons
Mutations in a key brain protein known to underlie a form of Parkinson's disease (PD) wreaks its damage by stunting the normal growth and branching of neurons, researchers have found. view more (2006-11-27)
UNMC researchers help make diagnostic breakthrough with Burkitt lymphoma; study detailed in New England Journal of Medicine
An international research study involving the University of Nebraska Medical Center, the National Cancer Institute and 10 other institutions has successfully identified the gene expression signature for Burkitt lymphoma. view more (2006-06-12)
Columbia scientists develop cancer terminator viruses
Researchers at Columbia University Medical Center continue to make strides in their work to develop the next generation of effective viral-based therapies for cancer. view more (2005-09-21)
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...

Untangling a pathology of Alzheimer's
Researchers have uncovered what appears to be a natural protective mechanism against a central cause of neuronal death in Alzheimer's and similar neurodegenerative diseases. view more (2006-09-07)
Green tea ingredient prevents Alzheimer's-like brain damage in mice
Researchers at the University of South (USF) have found that green tea may offer another potential health benefit - protecting the brain against the ravages of Alzheimer's disease. view more (2005-09-21)
Gene guards grain-producing grasses so people and animals can eat
Purdue University and USDA-Agricultural Research Service scientists have discovered that a type of gene in grain-producing plants halts infection by a disease-causing fungus that can destroy crops vital for human food supplies. view more (2008-02-04)
Patient outcomes linked to biomarker levels by quantitative technology
Researchers in the Department of Pathology at Yale University School of Medicine report that when using current pathology methods of biomarker detection, the concentration of antibodies used dramatically alters the apparent relationship of biomarker level to clinical outcome. view more (2005-12-21)
Scientists develope a new model of artificial canine skin
Researchers at UNIVET, a spin-off of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, in cooperation with the animal nutrition company Affinity Petcare, have developed an artificial cellular model which faithfully reproduces the characteristics of dog's skin and which will allow, therefore, the carrying out of various lines of research related to... view more...

Free radical cell death switch identified
Humans and other organisms depend on oxygen to produce the energy required for cells to carry out their normal functions. A cell's engine, the mitochondria, converts oxygen into energy. But this process also leaves a kind of exhaust product known as free radicals. view more (2006-06-02)
