Life and death in the hippocampus: what young neurons need to survive

...cular survival gear required for a young neuron to successfully jump into the fray and hook up with other cells. In a study published in a forthcoming issue of Nature, researchers in the lab of Fred H.

With few factors, adult cells take on character of embryonic stem cells

...ntroduction of just four factors, researchers have successfully induced differentiated cells taken from mouse embryos or adult mice to behave like embryonic stem cells. The researchers reported their findings in an immediate early publication of the journal Cell. The cells--which the researchers designate "indu...

Structure determined for p53 tumor suppressor protein as bound to DNA for anti-cancer activity

...hemistry, researchers at The Wistar Institute have successfully determined the three-dimensional structure of the p53 protein bound as a dimer to DNA and used the structure to produce an accurate model of the p53 tetramer bound to DNA. "The bottom line is that we now have a detailed picture of how p53 binds DNA...

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

...enter, Chicago, and Ceregene Inc., San Diego, have successfully used gene therapy to preserve motor function and stop the anatomic, cellular changes that occur in the brains of mice with Huntington's disease (HD).

A sweet solution for Alzheimer's disease?

...o destroy amyloid â, for example, was first tested successfully in the same type of mice used in the scyllo-inositol studies, but the vaccine turned out to be toxic in some humans. It caused an autoimmune reaction in about 10 percent of patients who were immunized, St George-Hyslop said. Autoimmune responses sh...

Compound in dairy products targets diabetes

Fatty acids commonly found in dairy products have successfully treated diabetes in mice, according to a researcher at Penn State. The compounds, known as conjugated linoleic acids (CLA), have also shown promising results in human trials, signaling a new way of potentially treating the disease without synthetic d...

Leptin found to control appetite and limb development in frogs

...mans, so Denver's lab had some puzzles to solve to successfully clone the frog gene. But once they solved those issues and put the gene into E. coli bacteria to make quantities of leptin, the frog protein turned out to be functionally very similar to the human version, Denver notes. "It would appear that leptin...

As a result, we can now take transgene designs that work well in model systems and breed flocks of birds depositing therapeutic...

'Smart' genetic therapy helps the body to heal itself

...or Wirth's team identified a drug ?valproate, used successfully in epilepsy treatment for decades ?that is able to increase SMN protein levels 2-4 fold in cell lines derived from SMA patients. Later, they showed that valproate also raised SMN levels in neuronal tissues such as cultured brain slices derived from...
