Scientists decipher cellular 'roadmap' of disease-related proteins Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Researchers are helping demystify an important class of proteins associated with disease, a discovery that could lead to better treatments for cancer, cystic fibrosis and many other conditions. |
New mouse model reveals a mystery of Duchenne muscular dystrophy Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy often die as young adults from heart and breathing complications. Now, researchers have developed a mouse model that accurately mimics the course of the disease in humans. |
How quality control works in our cells Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:28 PM PDT A cellular control mechanism prevents the production of defective proteins in our cells. A team of researchers has now obtained valuable insights into this vital mechanism that could lead to new therapeutic approaches for genetic diseases. |
Sugar makes cancer light-up in MRI scanners Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:27 PM PDT A new technique for detecting cancer by imaging the consumption of sugar with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been unveiled. The breakthrough could provide a safer and simpler alternative to standard radioactive techniques and enable radiologists to image tumors in greater detail. |
