Defensins Ward Off HIV In Two Ways

...and colleagues from Mount Sinai School of Medicine analyze how alpha-defensin-1, in particular, inhibits HIV infection in CD4+ T cells. CD4 + T cells are white blood cells that have molecules called CD4 on their exterior. They help orchestrate the body's response to viruses and therefore play important roles...

Doctors closer to using gene analysis to help trauma patients

...orida, describe how they were able to consistently analyze which genes are active in patients with serious infections or traumatic injuries. Researchers want to understand the genetic features that enhance a patient’s recovery as well as the elements that cause people to die sometimes weeks after an injury ...

Signs of aging: Scientists evaluate genes associated with longevity

...ences. This study was the first to utilize SAGE to analyze aging-related gene-expression changes. It is expected that the large volume of SAGE data generated for this study will also be utilized to more fully annotate the C. elegans transcriptome, resulting in a refined estimate of gene number and organizati...

The biggest family tree ever

...esearch Laboratories and UA's BIO5 Institute, will analyze the general public's DNA samples. His team will tr...trace back their history." The UA scientists will analyze a tiny fraction of the participants' genetic material: the y-chromosome, which is passed on from fat...

Stanford gut check shows diversity of intestinal ecosystem

...croarray technology. The latter will allow them to analyze samples much more quickly. They have been working with biochemistry professor Patrick Brown, MD, PhD, and graduate student Chana Palmer to develop a gene chip that can perform a microbial census on complex communities and samples. ...

Affymetrix Launches New Globin-Reduction Kits and Protocol Developed with PreAnalytiX

...ling researchers to use a whole-genome approach to analyze the relationship between genetics and health. Affymetrix is headquartered in Santa Clara, Calif., with manufacturing facilities in Sacramento, Calif., and Bedford, Mass. The company maintains important sales and marketing operations in Europe and Asi...

Scientists analyze chromosomes 2 and 4

...s long. One of the central goals of the effort to analyze the human genome is the identification of all genes, which are generally defined as stretches of DNA that code for particular proteins. The new analysis confirmed the existence of 1,346 protein-coding genes on chromosome 2 and 796 protein-coding gene...

Alcohol consumption disrupts breastfeeding hormones

...ical Endocrinology and Metabolism, is the first to analyze the effects of alcohol on lactational hormones of women who are breastfeeding. Subjects were 17 women who were nursing infants between 2 and 4 months of age. While in a controlled clinical setting away from their infants, each woman drank a beverage...

Asymptomatic HIV babies could use earlier treatment

... that time—an unbiased sample that allowed them to analyze all infected babies, not just the sickest. “We were able to analyze children with the full spectrum of disease across many years, rather than using mathematical models ...

Unique library of plant genes germinates, takes root at UNC

...ersistent challenge of genomics is how to capture, analyze and distribute the massive amounts of data being c... the genomic data and all the methods necessary to analyze it, it takes a lot of human and computer effort to put those two things together in one user-friendl...

Map of life on Earth could be used on Mars

...ertainty. Blank can then use chronological data to analyze niche specialization, "where these organisms like to grow," among members of each life domain over geologic time. Habitat divergence among bacteria is consistent with patterns of divergence among the other prokaryotes, Blank's research shows. She no...

Circulating stem cells play small role in lung repair

Researchers use 3-D imaging system to unveil swimming behavior of microscopic plankton

...al movement. The system allowed the researchers to analyze the swimming behavior of more than 375,000 individual zooplankton swimming against vertical currents. Swimming against vertical currents allows the plankton to keep their depth, a behavior which was postulated long ago but had never been measured in ...

Genomic sequences processed in minutes, rather than weeks

...r to this new tool, it took researchers 10 days to analyze one organism. Now, researchers can analyze 13 organisms within nine hours, making the time-to-solution hundreds of times faster. "Access to an...

Fluorescing lab worms signal longer life spans

...nce." In the future, scientists could conceivably analyze human fluid samples for a variety of biomarkers similar to HSP-16 in order to determine a person's life span, said Rea. "They might even be able to tweak each stress-response system and set them for maximum longevity, which is believed to be about 12...

Identification of specific genes predicts which patients will respond to Hepatitis C treatment

...h laboratory at University of Toronto, was used to analyze the pattern of genes in all participants. This technology allows scientists to compare levels of expression for tens of thousands of genes on a glass slide ?these "gene chips" are the size of a postage stamp. The technology is able to quickly scan th...

Overbearing colored light may reveal a second mechanism by which birds interpret magnetic signals

... study, the Ritz and Wiltschko groups teamed up to analyze the orientation behavior under turquoise light in detail and revealed an unexpected phenomenon: Increasing the intensity of turquoise light changes the birds' orientation significantly, in comparison to dimmer light levels. The researchers found that...
