Supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and funding from the Vitiligo Society (UK) and the National Vitiligo Foundation (USA), the study…
Now, researchers at Johns Hopkins have developed a promising new technique for noninvasively tracking where living cells go after they are put into the body….
In experiments with mice genetically prone to develop polyps, researchers discovered that animals carrying one copy of the damaged gene, Atp5a1, had about 90…
The ability to resist many of the antibiotics used against plague has been found so far in only a single case of the disease in Madagascar. But because the…
In the article they present a wealth of data relating to the assay of pathogens in samples also containing human genomic duplex DNA and to the assay of SNPs…
Thirdly, the brain is functionally asymmetric: the left hemisphere (with the right-handers) is mainly connected with abstract-logical thinking and to a larger…
Their design is being constantly improved, but so far devices have not been created that would contain hydrogen sufficient for wide commercial application. In…
The p53 transcription factor is found in every cell of the body, where it helps to prevent cancer by activating and deactivating the right genes. When the cell…
The insight emerged from a long-running study of a protein called PMR1, the key player in an unusual mechanism that cells use to quickly stop production of…
A newly discovered small molecule called IQ-1 plays a key role in preventing embryonic stem cells from differentiating into one or more specific cell types,…
Peter Sutovsky, assistant professor of animal sciences in the University of Missouri-Columbia's College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources and…
New research, led by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) scientists Jonathan Sebat, Lakshmi Muthuswamy and Michael Wigler, has found a distinction between…
By offering them a choice between normal wooden blocks and specially designed blocks made of wood and other materials, the researchers found that the termites…
The protein tissue transglutaminase, known by the abbreviation TG2, previously has been found by researchers at M. D. Anderson and elsewhere to be…
Researchers have identified a novel gene mutation that causes X-linked mental retardation for which there was no previously known molecular diagnosis,…
