Alzheimer's Discovery: Amyloid Beta Triggers Increased Levels of Protein That Appears to Cause Neuronal Dysfunction
March 19, 2013 — A new study potentially identifies a cause of Alzheimer's disease -- based on a newly-discovered signaling pathway in cellular models of Alzheimer's disease -- and opens the door for new treatments ... > full story -
Mechanical Forces Play Major Role in Regulating Cells
March 19, 2013 — Researchers have for the first time shown that mechanical forces can control the depolymerization of actin, a protein critical to cells. The research suggests that forces applied externally and ... > full story -
Fish Peptide May Inhibit Cancer Metastasis
March 19, 2013 — Researchers have identified a peptide, or protein, derived from Pacific cod that may inhibit prostate cancer and possibly other cancers from spreading, according to preclinical ... > full story -
Tomatoes That Mimic Actions of Good Cholesterol Created
March 19, 2013 — Researchers have genetically engineered tomatoes to produce a peptide that mimics the actions of good cholesterol when consumed. In this early study, mice that were fed these tomatoes in ... > full story -
DNA Catalysts Do the Work of Protein Enzymes
March 19, 2013 — Chemists have used DNA to do a protein's job, creating opportunities for DNA to find work in more areas of biology, chemistry and medicine than ever ... > full story -
Tenfold Boost in Ability to Pinpoint Proteins in Cancer Cells
March 19, 2013 — A new method for color-coding cells allows cancer researchers to illuminate 100 biomarkers, a ten-time increase from the current standard. This helps to analyze individual cells from cultures or ... > full story -
Tiny RNA Molecule May Have Role in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Insulin Resistance
March 19, 2013 — A group of tiny RNA molecules with a big role in regulating gene expression also appear to have a role in causing insulin resistance in woman with polycystic ovary syndrome and, perhaps, in all ... > full story -
