A new Porcn inhibitor that was developed for the treatment of cancer has surprised scientists by having an unintended effect on cardiomyocytes, suggesting the treatment could also be used to…
CRISPR technology may not yet be used to cure diseases in humans, although studies on animals have shown that the gene editing technique has excellent potential for the treatment of…
A team of researchers from the Tufts University’s School of Arts and Sciences, the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts, and the University of Maryland have developed an artificial intelligence-derived model…
A biomedical researcher at the Southwestern Medical Center at the University of Texas has been awarded a grant of $250,000 for a study of the potential for the use of…
Researchers at Arizona State University are working on a device that can be used to identify molecules without the need for expensive equipment or vast quantities of samples. The researchers…
Researchers at the University of California have discovered four CRISPR-Cas9 inhibitors, which could potentially be used to switch off the gene-editing system to prevent unintentional gene edits. The CRISPR-Cas9 system…
Researchers at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) have discovered two new molecules that have high therapeutic potential for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The discoveries were made…
The CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing tool has been successfully used to correct clotting abnormalities in newborn and adult mice, demonstrating potential of the CRISPR system for the treatment of hemophilia in…
Chemotherapy can help in the fight against certain forms of brain cancer, although the treatment is far from ideal and improving brain cancer survival rates is notoriously difficult. Brain tumors…
