Cloning Mice: For the First Time, a Donor Mouse Has Been Cloned Using a Drop of Peripheral Blood from Its Tail
June 26, 2013 — Since Dolly the sheep in 1996, reproductive cloning has continued to advance; nearly 20 different mammalian species have now been cloned. Researchers have now developed a unique cloning procedure ... > full story -
Targeted Viral Therapy Destroys Breast Cancer Stem Cells in Preclinical Experiments
June 24, 2013 — A promising new treatment for breast cancer has been shown in cell culture and in animal models to selectively kill cancer stem cells at the original tumor site and in distant metastases with no ... > full story -
Epigenetic Changes Shed Light on Biological Mechanism of Autism
April 23, 2013 — Scientists have identified patterns of epigenetic changes involved in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by studying genetically identical twins who differ in autism traits. The study is the largest of ... > full story -
Using Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells, Scientists Can Better Study Human Disease
April 21, 2013 — New work has led to major advances in our understanding of embryonic stem cells and "induced pluripotent stem" cells, which appear identical to embryonic stem cells but can be created from adult ... > full story -

Cheating, and Getting Away With It: Works for Amoeba
January 11, 2013 — We would all like to believe that there is a kind of karma in life that guarantees those who cheat eventually pay for their bad behavior, if not immediately, then somewhere down the line. But a study ... > full story -
Enzyme Accelerates Malignant Stem Cell Cloning in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
December 26, 2012 — An international team has identified a key enzyme in the reprogramming process that promotes malignant stem cell cloning and the growth of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a cancer of the blood and ... > full story -
Bullying by Childhood Peers Leaves a Trace That Can Change the Expression of a Gene Linked to Mood
December 18, 2012 — A recent study suggests that bullying by peers changes the structure surrounding a gene involved in regulating mood, making victims more vulnerable to mental health problems as they ... > full story -
Immune System Could Play a Central Role in Age-Related Macular Degeneration
November 28, 2012 — Changes in how genes in the immune system function may result in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of visual impairment in older adults. The findings are epigenetic in nature, ... > full story -
'Cloning' Could Make Structurally Pure Nanotubes for Nanoelectronics
November 15, 2012 — Researchers have demonstrated a technique for growing virtually pure samples of single-wall carbon nanotubes with identical structures, a process they liken to "cloning" the nanotubes. If it can be ... > full story
