Efficient Model for Generating Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
August 1, 2013 Researchers report a simple, easily reproducible RNA-based method of generating human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Their approach has broad applicability for the successful production of ... > full story -
Researchers Find Home of Best Stem Cells for Bone Marrow Transplants
August 1, 2013 Researchers have revealed the location of human blood stem cells that may improve bone marrow transplants. The best stem cells are at the ends of the ... > full story -
Protein Linked to Cognitive Deficits in Angelman Syndrome Discovered
August 1, 2013 A team of neuroscientists has identified a protein in laboratory mice linked to impairments similar to those afflicted with Angelman syndrome -- a condition associated with symptoms that include ... > full story -
New Target Identified for Food Allergy Therapy
August 1, 2013 Researchers have identified an enzyme that is essential to the allergic reaction to peanuts. Blocking the enzyme's activity in sensitized mice prevented diarrhea and inflammation, and reduced levels ... > full story -
Fatty Acids Could Aid Cancer Prevention and Treatment
August 1, 2013 Omega-3 fatty acids, contained in oily fish such as salmon and trout, selectively inhibit growth and induce cell death in early and late-stage oral and skin cancers, according to new ... > full story -
Scientists Discover a Molecular 'Switch' in Cancers of the Testis and Ovary
August 1, 2013 Scientists have identified an 'on/off' switch in a type of cancer which typically occurs in the testes and ovaries called 'malignant germ cell ... > full story -
Fly Study Finds Two New Drivers of RNA Editing
August 1, 2013 A new study finds that RNA editing is not only regulated by sequences and structures near the editing sites but also by ones found much farther away. One newly discovered structure gives an editing ... > full story -
Genome-Wide Profiling of microRNAs Demonstrates How Increasing CO2 and Temperatures Affect Plant Development
July 31, 2013 A study on the mechanisms of how plants respond and adapt to elevated levels of carbon dioxide and higher temperatures has opened a new perspective in climate research. Researchers found that ... > full story -
