Biomarkers isolated from saliva successfully predict oral and breast cancer
Screening for breast cancer and the early detection of other tumors one day may be as simple as spitting into a collection tube or cup, according to recent studies by UCLA researchers. In one early study based on a risk model, presented here at the 96th Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research, the UCLA scientists reported that genetic "biomarkers" isolated in saliva...New peptide antibiotic isolated from American oyster
North Carolina Sea Grant researchers have isolated a new peptide antibiotic from the American oyster that may have implications for managing many diseases in oysters. The new antimicrobial peptide "American oyster defensin" (AOD) may protect against bacteria in Crassostrea virginica, a species that is native to North Carolina and important economically to Atlantic and Gulf Coast fisheries....Isolated Mitochondria Staining Kit from Sigma-Aldrich

Researchers at the EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne) and the CHUV (Lausanne University Hospital) have discovered that some cells in the hair follicle belong to the true multipotent stem cell category and can // differentiate into many cell types needed for hair growth and follicle replacement. The research team has documented its findings in an advance online publication...Isolated Sleep Paralysis In Patients With Anxiety Disorders
Isolated sleep paralysis (ISP) results from persistence of REM activity, including typical paralysis associated// with REM, after an individual begins to awaken and become aware or as they are falling asleep. During these episodes, individuals are aware of their surroundings, but are unable to move. Hallucinations, such as sensing presence of others, feeling external pressure on the che...Bird flu virus isolated from duck farm in Canada
Canadian authoroties following for the second time in a month have isolated a second case of bird flu virus in a duck farm. //Both the virus isolated were the H5 strain and this strain is found to be a non-infectious and less pathogenic strain. Canadian authoroties are confident from the lab report that this strain does not spread nor did not cause any clinical infections in birds and...New System To Isolate People Affected By Bird Flu
Ahmedabad based company Online Infocomm, which helped SARS affected South-East Asia two years ago, by installing telemedicine-based thermal scanners are now under the process of designing a new system that could help early// diagnosis of the bird flu and isolate people affected by it. The company has sought the permission from the central and state government by sending letters to Pri...Breast Cancer Death Rate Higher Among Those Who Are Socially Isolated
According to a study, patients with breast cancer, who are socially isolated, with no close relatives or friends are more likely to die of the disease// than those who are socially integrated. According to the study by scientist Candyce H. Kroenke, women diagnosed with breast cancer should know that people around them can make a difference in whether they survive the disease, reported ne...Familial isolated vitamin e deficiency
