Gene therapy injected into the brains' of mice with Huntington's disease

...Kordower says the study suggests a new approach to forestall disease progression in newly diagnosed HD patients by delivering potent trophic factors with effects that are long-term and non-toxic." "If these results can be replicated in HD patients, it would represent a significant advance in the treatment of t...

Pitt professor's theory of evolution gets boost from cell research

...rganisms change provides us with an opportunity to forestall the damage we might cause by unthinking disruption of the environment," added Schwartz. "The Sudden Origins theory, buttressed by modern cell biology, underscores the need to preserve the environment--not only to enhance life today, but to protect li...

UW scientists report a new method to speed bird flu vaccine production

...ne manufacturers will be in a race against time to forestall calamity. But now, thanks to a new technique to more efficiently produce the disarmed viruses that are the seed stock for making flu vaccine in large quantities, life-saving inoculations may be available more readily than before. The work is especial...

European Commission funds EBI to do new research on synergies between bioinformatics and medical informatics

To forestall genetic exchange between human and avian strains, as in mixed infections, they emphasized that poultry workers should be systematically vaccinated, pointing out that such workers are identified as high-risk and included in the annual Italian vaccinat...

Stem cell therapy successfully treats heart attack in animals

...ck to heart muscle, then there is the potential to forestall the serious complications that traditionally result from a heart attack, including disturbances of heart rhythm that can lead to sudden cardiac death, and decreased muscle pumping function that can lead to congestive heart failure." The researchers ...

Malaria mechanism revealed

...s--should block glycophorin A receptor binding and forestall malaria infection. To test this idea, the researchers created altered versions of the RII protein that they predicted would block the RII handshake, glycan binding, or both. The result: All such altered versions of the RII protein failed to bind to ...
