Ariadne Genomics Announces the Release of PathwayStudio?Central, Client-Server Software for Biological Pathway Analysis

...lgorithms and MedScan information extraction tools allow for computation intensive tasks and provide convenient interfaces for the integration with internal frameworks and third-party products. For more information, visit Ariadne Genomics website www.ariadnegenomics.com ...

Microscopes at microscopic size

...n used together with tiny light emitting lasers to allow the scientists to analyse the cells or targets within the cells. Researchers can use this capability to examine cellular conditions for certain diseases or to develop new treatments by studying the way cells react to a drug. The biochips also raise ...

Molecular thermometers on skin cells detect heat and camphor

...ain temperature), and this causes them to open and allow electrically charged ions to pass through and cause an electrical potential that signals the brain. Patapoutian and his colleagues discovered TRPV3 a few years ago by conducting a computer search through an early-assembled draft of the human genome....

A new way to share models of biological systems

... step was to build a community resource that would allow anyone to submit, download and reuse the models. That's the purpose of the BioModels database. BioModels provides access to published, peer-reviewed, quantitative models of biochemical and cell-biological systems." Some of these systems are very sim...

'Smart drug' targets deadly brain cancer

...idates for the drug. Says Dr. Galanis, "This could allow us to customize drug administration to the patients most likely to benefit from it, and in that way, improve care." A Smart Drug In their study, NCCTG researchers used an investigational drug that is not currently available for wide use. Known as C...

Sugar beet virus mutation requires Texas touch

...When these lines become available to producers and allow them to grow beets at a profit, that's when the research has come full circle, Rush said. ...

Remote control flies? Fly behavior controlled by laser light

... could be equipped with molecular "receivers" that allow them to recognize an outside signal like a laser light pulse and translate that signal into the electrical signals characteristic of nerve-cell activity. To accomplish this, Miesenböck and Lima devised a triggered molecular lock and key system, wher...

Owl genomics presents a HEPATOCHIP for diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

This chip also assess the efficacy of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis treatment by determining progression or regression of NASH in patients before, during, and NASH treatment....

Internet viruses help ecologists control invasive species

...they say. The findings are important because they allow the limited resources available to control invasive species to be targeted at points on the network where they will have most impact. "Outbound vector traffic from hubs with large flows to non-invaded destinations should be targeted for management ef...

Chemical Engineer Kao Explores Antibiotic Synthesis With DNA Chips

...iotic--the case with erythromycin--these two genes allow the bacterium to produce it faster. Again, the specific mutations eluded Kao's group. Currently, the researchers are trying to identify the mutations by chopping overproducer DNA into small pieces, several genes in length, and inserting them into no...

Newer imaging techniques may lead to over-treatment

Newer imaging technologies allow physicians to visualize more of the arteries in the lungs, including detecting small blood clots not previously seen, but seeing more may have little impact on the patient's outcome, a new study suggests. The study included 198 patients with suspect...

Unlike other mammals, newborn dolphins and orcas stay active 24/7 during first months of development

The findings that a vaccine against Pseudomonas aeruginosa is therapeutic in mice offers promise for patients with cystic fibrosis or oth...

High fidelity keeps human DNA assembly line humming

...ystem has an acceptable level of error required to allow for the speed at which cells must reproduce. "RNA polymerase is one of nature's great designs," Burton said. RNA polymerases are found in bacteria, yeast, plants and humans. The design has endured because of this fidelity mechanism for RNA synthesis...
