Scientists Revolutionize Creation of Genetically Altered Mice to Model Human Disease
May 2, 2013 — Scientists have efficiently created mouse models with multiple gene mutations in a matter of weeks. Because the method does not require embryonic stem cells, the approach also could allow any animal ... > full story -
Adult Cells Transformed Into Early-Stage Nerve Cells, Bypassing the Pluripotent Stem Cell Stage
May 2, 2013 — Scientists have converted skin cells from people and monkeys into a cell that can form a wide variety of nervous-system cells — without passing through the do-it-all stage called the induced ... > full story -
Gene Mutations Associated With Nearsightedness Identified
May 2, 2013 — Mutations in a gene that helps regulate copper and oxygen levels in eye tissue are associated with a severe form of nearsightedness, according to a new ... > full story -
3-D Simulation Shows How Form of Complex Organs Evolves by Natural Selection
May 2, 2013 — Researchers have developed the first three-dimensional simulation of the evolution of morphology by integrating the mechanisms of genetic regulation that take place during embryo development. The ... > full story -
Investigating Devastating Childhood Diseases Just Got Easier
May 2, 2013 — Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPScs) from the skin of patients with Dravet syndrome (DS) show Dravet-like functional impairment when they are converted into neurons, finds new research. This method ... > full story -
New Imaging Technique to Visualize Bio-Metals and Molecules Simultaneously
May 2, 2013 — Metal elements and molecules interact in the body but visualizing them together has always been a challenge. Researchers have now developed a new molecular imaging technology that enables them to ... > full story -
Why Some Don't Respond to Rubella Vaccine
May 1, 2013 — Using advanced genetic sequencing technology and analysis, vaccine researchers have identified 27 genes that respond in very different ways to the standard rubella vaccine, making the vaccine less ... > full story -
PTSD Research: Distinct Gene Activity Patterns from Childhood Abuse
May 1, 2013 — A study of adult civilians with PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) has shown that individuals with a history of childhood abuse have distinct, profound changes in gene activity patterns, compared ... > full story -
New Molecule Heralds Hope for Muscular Dystrophy Treatment
May 1, 2013 — There's hope for patients with myotonic dystrophy, the most common form of muscular dystrophy in adults. A new small molecule has been shown to break up the protein-RNA clusters that cause the ... > full story -
