Scientists ID molecular 'switch' in liver that triggers harmful effects of saturated and trans fats
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute researchers have identified a molecular mechanism in the liver that explains, for the first time, how consuming foods rich in saturated fats and trans-fatty acids causes elevated blood levels of cholesterol and triglycerides and increases one's risk of heart disease and certain cancers. In the Jan. 28 issue of Cell, scientists led by Bruce Spiegelman, PhD, rep...Termites feed through good vibrations
Discovery that termites use vibrations to choose the wood they eat may provide opportunities to new methods of reducing infestations in homes and also may provide insights into the "cocktail party effect" of signal processing ?how to ignore most noise but have some signals that trigger attention ?that may prove useful in artificial intelligence. CSIRO entomologist Theo Evans says laborato...Scientists Replicate Hepatitis C Virus in Laboratory
For the first time, scientists have replicated hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the laboratory. The ability to replicate HCV in cell culture will allow researchers to better study the life cycle and biology of this virus and to test potential antiviral compounds, which may lead to new therapies for the liver disease that results from infection with HCV. Scientists at the National Institute of Diabetes...Study Demonstrates Gene Expression Microarrays are Comparable and Reproducible
Foreveryone doing or reading a paper about microarray-based experiments,reproductibility, especially inter-lab, is the #1 concern. Can I trustthese results? If I redo the same experiment in one month, will I beable to compare both? The NIH recently demonstrated that microarrays experiments performed in d...GATA: a graphic alignment tool for comparative sequence analysis
Sometimes apotential target for a drug seems very promising on paper; things areoften very different in reality. Its the case of telomerase inhibitorsto treat cancer; they are supposed to strip the "immortal" (able todivide indefinitely) aspect of cancer cells. Yet, something in the cellseems to block their function, preventing them to inhibit completelythe...rat at Biology Products

Blood Cells Capable of Regenerating Liver
Livers can be regenerated using stem cells from blood -- an important discovery that means patients may be able to grow their own liver transplants using bone marrow. This adds to a growing body of evidence that stem cells, known as "master cells" because they can produce a variety of different kinds of cells, might one day be manipulated to create custom-grown organ transplants....Serum Progesterone Helps Stratify Ectopic Pregnancy Risk
Measurement of serum progesterone levels may be helpful in deciding which emergency department patients with no strong clinical signs are at low risk of ectopic pregnancy, according to a report in the August issue of the Annals of Emergency Medicine. They measured progesterone levels in 716 first-trimester patients who presented to an emergency department with abdominal pain or...Homeopathic preparation better than placebo in perennial allergic
A homeopathic preparation for perennial allergic rhinitis appears to be more effective than placebo. A multicenter team studied 50 patients with perennial allergic rhinitis. The subjects were randomized to receive either 30cc of a homeopathic preparation of principal inhalent allergen or placebo. In the third and fourth week after the start of treatment, the group compared changes in nasa...Laboratory Testing Can Identify Risk of Pre-Term Labor and Delivery
A test for fetal fibronectin can predict whether a pregnant woman is at risk for early labor and delivery. Those at high risk for pre-term births are women with previous pre-term deliveries, those with multiple gestation pregnancy, and those who suffer from diabetes and/or hypertension. The current approach for finding whether a woman will go into premature labor is the use of a clinical...More Accurate "PROSTATE CANCER" Test can save Unnecessary Biopsies
Prostate cancer can effect men over the age of 40 years and is the second commonest cancer among men after lung cancer. Usually it goes undetected till it is advanced and beyond cure. However a lot of awareness has been created about this condition and now men over the age of 40 years can be screened regularly to detect the cancer. One of the most promising "tumour markers" in medicine...rat at Medicine Products

Fast, Accurate Influenza A/B Antigen Detection
According to CDC data, influenza infections in this country cause more than 114,000 hospitalizations and 36,000 deaths annually. Among healthy adults, bronchitis and pneumonia are the most common complications. Together, influenza and pneumonia are the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. Influenza is particularly dangerous in elderly and immunocompromised people; however, infec...Lab Automation Networks Proliferating
Although it may still seem radically innovative in the context of many clinical laboratories, automated production in the manufacturing sector had been the norm for many years. In automobile assembly, for example, automated lines fabricate sub-assemblies and entire vehicles with only occasional human oversight. The result has been vastly improved products, far fewer defects, and significant p...New Quality Control Systems for Every Laboratory Application
