Rescuing injured hearts by enhancing regeneration
Using a two-drug approach, researchers at Children's Hospital Boston have demonstrated that it may be possible to rescue heart function after a heart attack and protect the heart from scarring. Working with rats, they combined an agent that overcomes a natural inhibitor of cell division with a naturally occurring growth factor that encourages blood vessel growth (angiogenesis). Together, these tw...Enhancing activity of marijuana-like chemicals in brain helps treat
Marijuana-like chemicals in the brain may point to a treatment for the debilitating condition of Parkinson's disease. In a study to be published in the Feb. 8 issue of Nature, researchers from the Stanford University School of Medicine report that endocannabinoids, naturally occurring chemicals found in the brain that are similar to the active compounds in marijuana and hashish, helped trig...Mutation improves memory, may lead to memory-enhancing pill
A mind-altering mutation in mice results in an enhanced long-term memory, researchers report in the April 6, 2007 issue of the journal Cell, published by Cell Press. These findings point to a potential target for the development of a drug to treat memory loss, according to the researchers. The researchers studied a gene that normally increases levels of a natural memory-blocking protein. A...ChemiLucent Plus Western Blot Enhancing Kit (Trial size) from CHEMICON
Description:ChemiLucent™ Plus is a chemiluminescent signal enhancing reagent that can be used independently to boost the signal obtained with all ECL based Western blot detection kits. ChemiLucent™ Plus is derived from a powerful, innovative proprietary technology. Unlike conjugated complex- or chemiluminescent substrate enhancers, ChemiLucent™ Plus works through a novel mechanism by increa...Western Blot Enhancing Kit from BioChain

In these challenging financial times, good relationships with shareholders are more important than ever. Maintaining a positive relationship with current investors is especially critical because they could very likely be the best source for leading a companys next round of financing. Here are some tips for doing just that: Understanding the needs a...Enhancing Survival Rate Of Lung Cancer Patients
Investigators in an international study found the survival rate of non-small-cell lung cancer patients after its removal // improved with cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Cisplatin is an anti-neoplastic medication that interferes with the growth of cancer cells and slows their growth and spread in the body. Researchers randomly assigned 1,867 patients to receive either three or fo...Enhancing Infants Immune System
Researchers at Children's Hospital Boston say that they have found a new way to boost the immune response in infants. It is generally known that newborns// are at risk for developing various infections since their immune systems have not been fully developed. In a study published in the online edition of the journal Blood on April 25, Ofer Levy, MD, PhD and colleagues in Children's Divi...Rescuing Injured Hearts by Enhancing Regeneration
