Omega-3 Fattyacids Keeps Retinopathy at Bay
...studied mice genetically altered with a gene which mammals normally lack that converts omega-6 into omega-3 fatty acids. They found that the mice with higher amounts of omega-3 had a nearly 50 percent decrease in retinopathy....Key Signaling Molecules in New Teeth Formation Identified
...experiments, and gene expression studies, although mammals have a limited capacity to regenerate teeth, mouse incisors contain stem cells and grow continuously throughout life. The researchers show that signals from the adjacent mesenchymal tissue regulate epithelial stem cells and form a complex regulator...Tumours in Dogs may Give Insight into Human Cancer Development
... According to the researcher, the two species of mammals are have similar genes, and studying the bioenergetics of canine tumours may enable scientists gain a comparative understanding of human tumour metabolism. We are using high throughput screening techniques to identify new biomarkers of prognostic ...... sequences might be a widely used strategy used in mammals to organize functional domains.Without boundary elements, the coding portion of the genome is like a long, run-on sequence of words without punctuation, said Rosenfeld. Decoding the information written in junk DNA could open new areas of medical re......nd prostate cancer. Dr Mobasheri says we are all mammals with similar genes and studying the bioenergetics of canine tumours will allow us to gain a comparative understanding of human tumour metabolism. He said: We are using high throughput screening techniques to identify new biomarkers of prognostic si...
