Lorenz Studer of the Sloan-Kettering Institute in New York, US, led the research of therapeutic cloning in mice, found that all six mice that had been given grafts of neurons derived from their own skin cells got significantly better, scoring well on tests of movement.
The mice used in the research were back to health after […]

In recent years, anthrax has become a top choice as a biological warfare agent, according to the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), because its spores can easily become airborne.
Early studies show that a new mucosal vaccine against anthrax has the potential to provide military personnel with more effective and efficient protection against a “popular” bioweapon. […]

Two teams, Jeffrey Kordower of Rush University Medical Center in Chicago.and Patrik Brundin of the Wallenberg Neuroscience Center in Lund, Sweden, develop advanced therapies based on neurons grown from stem cells.
The diseased cells in Parkinson contain structures called Lewy bodies, accumulations of a protein called ?-synuclein that are a hallmark of Parkinson’s. This is a […]

It was written in NewScientist that for decades, hundreds of labs throughout the world have sent flu samples to the World Health Organization’s Global Influenza Surveillance Network, using a venerable test for similarity called haemagglutinin inhibition.
The analysis was objected to chart immunological changes in the virus that might signal a severe flu season, and to […]

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in elderly men and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in men. It may be detected by digital rectal examination, but recently, researchers at the University of Michigan developed an experimental biomarker test that more accurately detects prostate cancer than any other screening method currently in […]

Schizophrenia known as a mental disorder which have a strong genetic component. A Queen’s academic, part of an international team which has discovered a gene that increases the risk of developing schizophrenia found that the discovery of the gene, MEGF10, could be a step in the right direction towards helping those affected.
Dr O’Neill and his […]

Do you have a thought about a relation or link between canine and human cancers? Well, I dont. But researchers from University of Minnesota veterinarian Jaime Modiano do. They are studying the similarities and genetic links between canine and human cancers to help fight the disease.
It was revealed in ScienceDaily that beside having friendship […]

People taking medication should be aware about what medication he/she has, the doses of medicine, and what time will they taken.

In line with this caution, recently, researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology’s School of Electrical and Computer Engineering have a possible solution for the one in three adults who fail to take their […]

Tissue Engineering from Yale School of Medicine reported a new finding about combination of bone marrow removal with injection of a hormone at targeted locations in the body.

Currently available treatment requires surgery and artificial materials. Besides, it often resultsan imperfect outcomes. In other hand, people need an ideal approach to create new bone […]
