Biomarkers May Indicate Alzheimer's Disease

The early signs of Alzheimer's disease can be identified by using the compounds, or biomarkers in the cerebrospinal fluid, according to scientific research conducted by Sweden’s Lund University.// Loss of memory and confusion can also be interpreted as early signs of the onset of the disease, and it is not always easy to differentiate the symptoms of Alzheimer's, and that of growing old....

Biomarkers Could Prove Significant In Understanding Aging Process

Researchers at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center have zoned in on new molecular indicators, called "biomarkers", // for aging of the skin that could be an interesting pointer when evaluating anti-aging therapies. The findings of this particular study are reported in the latest issue of the Journal of Investigative Dermatology. “There's a lot of interest in the pharmaceutical and...

Researchers Find Mix of Biomarkers Predicting Mortality

Previous research has uncovered a range of biological markers that can predict disability, morbidity and mortality in older adults. In this study, the researchers// analyzed 13 biomarkers representing neuroendocrine and vascular functions and immune and metabolic activity over 12 years in 1,189 high-functioning men and women aged 70-79 enrolled in the MacArthur Study of Successful Aging. The goal...

Biomarkers Predicting Mortality Found Using Statistical Technique

A recent study was conducted to identify biomarker combinations associated with mortality among people.Previous research //has uncovered a range of biological markers that can predict disability, morbidity and mortality in older adults. In this study, the researchers analyzed 13 biomarkers representing neuroendocrine and vascular functions and immune and metabolic activity over 12 yea...

Biomarkers Found Harmful For Human Lupus

A team of Wake Forest University School of Medicine has found biomarkers for lupus that may play a role in causing the disease. //The biomarkers are micro-ribonucleic acids (micro-RNAs), said Nilamadhab Mishra, M.D. Mr. Mishra and his colleagues reported at the American College of Rheumatology meeting in Washington that they had found profound differences in the expression of micro-RNAs...

Researchers Find Two Biomarkers With Potential to Predict Breast Cancer Spread

Expression of two different proteins taken from primary tumor biopsies is highly associated with spread of breast cancer to nearby lymph nodes, according to researchers who// say this protein profile could help identify at an early stage those patients whose disease is likely to metastasize. In the December 15 issue of Cancer Research, the researchers say over-expression of one uniden...

Biomarkers Ability to Predict Heart Disease and Stroke is Limited

A study of the use of biomarkers to predict the risk of cardiovascular disease and death in an apparently healthy population has found that, even though some measurements// are associated with future cardiovascular events, their usefulness for predicting risk in individuals may be limited. The report from the Framingham Heart Study appears in the Dec. 21 New England Journal of Medicine....

Probable Biomarkers for Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Genetic alterations have been found to be to be associated with the development of skin cancers related to smoking//. These cancers; squamous cell carcinomas(SCC), are seen in the head and neck area. Charis Eng of the Genomic Medicine Institute at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and colleagues hope their research published in JAMA will help identify gene biomarkers which can give...

New Genetic Biomarkers Could Predict Coronary Heart Disease

New genetic markers may be able to predict whether a person is likely to have coronary heart disease (CAD) in the future//. Research carried out by Dr. M. Balasubramanyam and Dr.V.Mohan at the Madras Diabetes Research Foundation (India) shows that people who are pre-diabetic or who have Type 2 diabetes have much shorter telomeres1 and, since these people are prone to CAD, an early test could indi...
