Scientists create dual-modality microbeads to improve identification of disease biomarkers

Analyzing human blood for a very low virus concentration or a sample of water for a bioterrorism agent has always been a time-consuming and difficult process. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University have developed an easier and faster method to detect these types of target molecules in liquid samples using highly porous, micron-sized, silica beads. The res...

The development of a CXCR2 chemokine receptorbinding assay using the LEADseeker Multimodality Imaging System

CXCR2 • GPCR • receptor binding assay • LEADseeker • SPA Imaging Beads Chemo-attractant cytokines (chemokines) are low molecular weight, pro-inflammatory cytokines with potent leukocyte activation and/or chemotactic activity (1). Chemokines are classified into four families (CXC, CC, C, and CX...

Performance of the AMARA HitHunter Chemiluminescence Kinase Assay with the LEADseeker Multimodality Imaging System

AMARA • kinase assay • LEADseeker • chemiluminescence It is predicted that at least 500 kinase and phosphatase enzymes exist, their activities having wide-ranging regulatory responses. Many kinases are part of a signaling cascade in disease pathways such as inflammation and cancer, so identifying modulators of kinase...

The development of a melanocortin MC4 receptor binding assay using the LEADseeker Multimodality Imaging System

Melanocortin • receptor binding assay • LEADseeker • SPA Imaging Beads Pro-melanocortins are present in high levels in the pituitary and are processed into three major peptide hormone fragments: adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH), the melanocyte stimulating hormones, and β-endorphin. The various melanocyte stimulat...

New Modality in Migraine Management

Texas researchers have come out with a new way of administration of drug that treats migraine.Giving migraine patients the drug valproate sodium "rapidly and forcefully" eases severe headaches without side effects. Dr. John Claude Krusz of Anodyne PainCare in Dallas, in his study, which included 85 patients who had experienced no relief after treatment with standard therapies,//treated...

Imaging Modality That Might Help Diagnose Depression

Researchers say they may have found a way to diagnose melancholic depression using an imaging technology that allows them to observe // levels of certain substances in the brain. Melancholia is a relatively common form of depression marked by insomnia, loss of appetite, and loss of pleasure. Results of the study show low levels of the inhibitory transmitter GABA and high levels of the e...

Combined modality approach for effective treatment and enhanced survival in bile duct cancer

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is a type of bile duct cancer. Conventional therapy for this for of cancer is to remove (resect) the tumor, which may require removing part of the liver. Survival for patients// with this type of operation is only 25 to 35 percent, and many patients cannot be treated this way because the tumors can involve both sides of the liver. Cholangiocarcinoma is a relati...

Inhaled Insulin: A New Modality for Management of Diabetes

It is widely known that diabetes, one of the world’s leading debilitating diseases, has reached overwhelming proportions // . It affects an estimated 194 million adults worldwide. Therefore, there is a huge demand for innovative and effective therapeutic options that are beneficial to the patients. There are two types of diabetes: Type-1: Also known as Juvenile Diabetes, i...

Scientist Study New Treatment Modality for Psychiatric Disorders Using Mice

The researchers at Purdue University, University of California-Davis and Justus-Liebig University in Giessen, Germany said that new treatments //could be possible for autism and Parkinson’s disease by understanding how certain mice focused their attention despite being distracted using sweet and crunchy cereal. ‘Without a measure of cognitive deficit in mice that is relevant to such di...
