| Plant-made drug reverses breathing paralysis, study suggests Posted: 13 Jul 2013 09:28 AM PDT Paralytic drugs like succinylcholine are often used during surgery or when critically ill patients require endotracheal intubation. But if the drug is not swiftly cleared from the patient's system, the results can be deadly.  |
| Posted: 13 Jul 2013 06:52 AM PDT Proper tissue function and regeneration is supported by stem cells, which reside in so-called niches. New work identifies an important component for regulating stem cell niches, with impacts on tissue building and function. The results could have implications for disease research.  |
| Injecting iron supplement lets scientists track transplanted stem cells Posted: 12 Jul 2013 05:46 AM PDT A new, noninvasive technique for tracking stem cells after transplantation -- developed by a cross-disciplinary team of radiologists, chemists, statisticians and materials scientists -- could help surgeons determine whether a procedure to repair injured or worn-out knees is successful.  |
| A hidden epidemic: Street children show high levels of drug use Posted: 12 Jul 2013 05:46 AM PDT A review of fifty studies of drug use among street children in 22 countries sheds new light on the magnitude of the problem, the causes and health consequences of drug use among street children.  |
