A Step Closer to Artificial Livers: Researchers Identify Compounds That Help Liver Cells Grow Outside Body
June 2, 2013 — The liver can indeed regenerate itself if part of it is removed. However, researchers trying to exploit that ability in hopes of producing artificial liver tissue for transplantation have repeatedly ... > full story -
New Method of Mass-Producing High-Quality DNA Molecules
June 2, 2013 — A new method of manufacturing short, single-stranded DNA molecules can solve many of the problems associated with current production methods. The new method can be of value to both DNA nanotechnology ... > full story -
Targeted Therapy Boosts Lung Cancer Outcomes
June 1, 2013 — Non-small cell lung cancer patients whose tumor cells had an abnormal ALK gene fared better if treated with crizotinib, a targeted therapy, than with traditional chemotherapy. Median progression-free ... > full story -
Enhanced White Blood Cells Heal Mice With MS-Like Disease
June 1, 2013 — Genetically engineered immune cells seem to promote healing in mice infected with a neurological disease similar to multiple sclerosis, cleaning up lesions and allowing the mice to regain use of ... > full story -
Cytomegalovirus Might Speed Brain-Cancer Growth
June 1, 2013 — Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infects most middle-aged Americans but usually remains dormant in the body. This study indicates that, in mice, a mouse CMV speeds the progression of an aggressive form of brain ... > full story -
Mathematical Models to Better Combat HIV
May 31, 2013 — Theoretical models of HIV dynamics immediately following exposure to the virus are providing a method to study infection and treatment at these early stages, as well as assist researchers in coming ... > full story -
Oncogene Mutation Hijacks Splicing Process to Promote Growth and Survival
May 31, 2013 — Scientists have found that a singular gene mutation helps brain cancer cells to not just survive, but grow tumors rapidly by altering the splicing of genes that control cellular ... > full story -
A Bad Biology Grade Sticks Around
May 31, 2013 — Researchers have found that a low grade in a pre-requisite biology class predicts future student ... > full story -
Live and Let Die: Protein Prevents Immune Cell Suicide
May 31, 2013 — A protein called c-FLIP-R is critical to immune cell survival: If this molecule is missing, the cells kill themselves -- and are thus no longer able to perform their job fighting off ... > full story -
How Disease Mutations Affect the Parkin Protein
May 31, 2013 — Researchers have determined the crystal structure of Parkin, a protein found in cells that when mutated can lead to a hereditary form of Parkinson’s disease. The results define the position of ... > full story
