| Cows fed flaxseed produce more nutritious dairy products Posted: 26 Jan 2013 06:27 AM PST Dairy cows that are fed flaxseed produce more nutritious milk, with more omega-3 fatty acids and less saturated fat.  |
| Potential of differentiated iPS cells in cell therapy without immune rejection Posted: 25 Jan 2013 12:48 PM PST A new study shows that tissues derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells in an experimental model were not rejected when transplanted back into genetically identical recipients.  |
| Research may lead to new strategies against sepsis Posted: 25 Jan 2013 11:22 AM PST Scientists are closer to solving a long-standing mystery in sepsis, a complex, often life-threatening condition. By blocking the activity of a protein in cells that line blood vessels in mice, they have halted a cascade of cellular events that culminates in out-of-control inflammation, and protected lungs from damage. The findings provide new insights into molecular details underlying sepsis and its effects on lungs, and may lead to new treatments.  |
| New target for rheumatoid arthritis drugs Posted: 25 Jan 2013 11:20 AM PST Researchers have identified a potential new target for drugs to treat patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Efforts to develop drugs that hone in on this new target are underway.  |
| Emotional stress reduces effectiveness of prostate cancer therapies in animal model Posted: 25 Jan 2013 11:20 AM PST Not surprisingly, a cancer diagnosis creates stress. And patients with prostate cancer show higher levels of anxiety compared to other cancer patients. A new study indicates that stress is not just an emotional side effect of the diagnosis; it also can reduce the effectiveness of prostate cancer drugs and accelerate the development of prostate cancer.  |
| New tool for mining bacterial genome for novel drugs Posted: 25 Jan 2013 11:20 AM PST Biochemists have discovered that the process bacteria undergo when they become drug resistant can act as a powerful tool for drug discovery.  |
