A study led by Dennis Drayna, Ph.D of the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) has provided insights into the neurological deficits associated with stuttering and the…
A chlamydia vaccine developed Copenhagen-based research institute, Statens Serum Institut (SSI), has been shown to be safe to use in humans. Chlamydia is the most common sexually transmitted bacterial infection….
Researchers have found a link between motor neurone disease and the gut microbiome. The research suggests microbes in the gut can exacerbate symptoms of motor neurone disease and some have…
There have been several successful attempts at creating cerebral organoids artificially in the lab. Now, a team of researchers in Japan have gone one step further and have demonstrated their…
A new 3D tissue imaging technique has been developed that allows the effects diseases to be studied at the cellular level in far greater detail. The imaging technique, called X-ray…
An antihistamine drug has been shown to halt the most aggressive form of brain cancer in mice, by triggering a cell death pathway without harming healthy cells. Glioblastoma – or…
Researchers have halted pancreatic tumor formation in a mouse model that faithfully mimics the human disease by deleting a single gene and have identified three potential therapeutic targets for treating…
The findings of a study on HIV transmission has confirmed that the risk of passing on HIV through unprotected anal sex is virtually zero when HIV viral load is fully…
Research conducted at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) Cancer Center links resistance to the breast cancer drug Tamoxifen with high levels of the essential amino acid leucine. The research also…
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine have identified 129 jumping genes which drive cancer growth but are not identified by standard DNA sequencing techniques. Standard sequencing techniques allow researchers…
