Radiofrequency Energy Cooks Tumors Without Surgery

...g the tumor cells. Larger tumors can be treated by overlapping treatments. The dead cells are not removed, but become scar tissue and eventually shrink. Radiofrequency energy is electromagnetic and non-ionizing in nature, similar to microwave energy. Researchers have used RFA throughout the human body, includi...

Risk Of Schizophrenia due to Gene Variation

Researchers have found that two overlapping genes responsible for bipolar disorder. In previous study researchers found the genes increases risk for schizophrenia. This leads to the idea that the genes may be responsible for both disorders. Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illn...

Owing to the overlapping confidence levels of the two contraceptive methods, there may either be no risk or more than double the risk, in the opinion of researchers. The increased level of hormone release associated with the patch could account for risk of blood clot. More...

A Human Brain Gene Could Hold Clues On The Evolution Of Brain Capacity

... to understand its function. HAR1 is part of two overlapping genes. One of those genes, called HAR1F, is active in special nerve cells, called Cajal-Retzius neurons, that appear early in embryonic development and play a critical role in the formation of the layered structure of the human cerebral cortex. Cajal...

Scientists Review Loeys-Dietz Syndrome in the Largest Ever Study to date

...ndromes both are similar heritable conditions with overlapping symptoms that affect the connective tissue, the tissue that holds the body together. Marfan syndrome can affect many body systems, including the skeleton, eyes, heart and blood vessels, nervous system, skin and lungs. The vascular variant of Ehlers-D...

Genome Code Cracked for Breast and Colon Cancers

...e of these 13,000 genes by dividing each gene into overlapping sections – about 10 per gene – to get 130,000 sections for analysis. Each segment was amplified through a process called polymerase chain reaction, purified, and its sequence determined using more than three million biochemical reactions. The sequenc...

Immune System Gears Up by Specific Enzymes

...hat cleave LAG-3 are controlled by of distinct but overlapping signals generated from the T cell receptor, a specialized protein that allows T lymphocytes to “see” the outside world. The investigators showed that the T cell receptor generates a different, specific signal to control the activity of these metallop...

Steroids Cause the Same Tissue Changes as Tendon Injury

Physical torture was not significantly associated with PTSD or depression, suggesting that both physical and non-physi...
