Wisconsin scientists grow critical nerve cells

...f human development - in which stem cells could be successfully prodded to transform themselves into spinal motor neurons. In addition to the narrow time frame, it was also critical to expose the growing stem cells to an array of complex chemical cocktails. The cocktails constitute naturally secreted chemicals -...

Jump-starting T Cells In Skin Cancer

...anoma, the most deadly form of skin cancer, can be successfully treated in some cases by vaccinating patients with tumor proteins. How these vaccines work and why they are only effective in some patients remains unclear. Pierre Coulie and colleagues now show, in two articles in the January 17 issue of the Journal...

Timing is everything: First step in protein building revealed

...f the emitted light changesas well.The researchers successfully used this phenomenon, known asfluorescence resonance energy transfer or FRET, to monitor therelationship between eIF1 and its relative as the ribosome complexassembled and after RNA was added to the mix."We weren't even sure the two fluorescent molec...

Novel Enzyme Shows Potential As An Anti-HIV Target

Found: Missing sequence of the human Y chromosome

...today in the journal GenomeResearch that they have successfully cloned and characterized apreviously intractable DNA sequence: a 554-kilobase-pair genomicsegment near the centromere of the human Y chromosome. This sequencecontains eight putatively active genes that could be implicated insex-associated height diff...

Novel Therapy Tested in Mice Could Chase Away Cat Allergies

A molecule designed to block cat allergies successfully prevented allergic reactions in laboratory mice, a...?says Dr. Saxon. “Those results suggested that GFD successfully prevented the immune cells from reacting to cat allergen. The next step was to test GFD in mice that...

Amino acids in nectar enhance butterfly fecundity: A long awaited link

...rs such as bees, flies or butterflies to visit and successfully pollinate their flowers, plants have evolved intriguing mechanisms and attractants, of which nectar is best known. Thirty years ago, researchers discovered that nectars of flowers pollinated by butterflies contain substantial amounts of amino acids....

Asthma gene clusters identified

...adults with asthma, but this approach has not been successfully used in human studies involving children with asthma. In pediatrics, it is difficult to obtain tissue in sufficient quantities for analysis, especially during an asthma attack. But because asthma begins in childhood, the genes identified in adults ma...

Molecular models advance the fight against malaria

...cientists developed disease models using yeast and successfully introduced five mutations that make malaria resistant to the anti-malarial drug, atovaquone. The study, featured as the cover story of the April 29 Journal of Biological Chemistry, paves the way for using these models to test new drugs that could sup...

HIV-1 spread through six transmission lines in the UK

...ween men. Very little is known about how subtype B successfully invaded the British population, and more importantly, how the virus has subsequently spread and evolved. However, given that the first UK cases of AIDS reported in 1982 were probably infected within a window of 10 years prior to that time, the curre...
