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...Global analysis of membrane proteins
All cells are encased within a protective lipid membrane. The membrane is studded with many hundreds of different proteins that transport nutrients, ions, and water into and out of the cell. Such membrane proteins also help cells recognize each other in the body, and make the nervous system work. Scientists at Stockholm University have now mapped out nearly all of the membrane proteins in the ent...Doctors closer to using gene analysis to help trauma patients
A genetic tool with the potential to identify which trauma and burn patients are most likely to become seriously ill has worked consistently in a wide range of experimental clinical settings ?an important hurdle to overcome before the method is routinely used in emergency rooms and intensive care units.

In a recent research they suggest that high levels of C-reactive protein and low levels of albumin indicate high risk of heart disease in kidney patients. Of the 25% of patients who die while on kidney dialysis,// half do so from heart disease. Previous studies suggest that such patients run between five and one hundred times the risk of heart problems compared to the rest of the population....More Patients Going In For Home Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis involves surgically placing a soft plastic tube or catheter into the lining of the belly to flush out waste. // Patients must undergo training for two weeks and are then able to perform the 30-minute dialysis themselves from the comfort of their home. Hemodialysis patients can spend up to four hours, three times per week, attached to a blood-cleaning machine at a dialysis cen...New Treatment For Patients With Paralysis
Investigators designed a combination therapy and tested it on rats with spinal cord contusions -- the most common cause of paralysis in humans.// The combination therapy consisted of transplanted Schwann cells, which is a type of cell that insulates nerve cells, a cell messenger molecule called cyclic AMP, and the antidepressant Rolipram. Following a spinal cord injury, the body typicall...Single gene analysis for diagnosis of a range of blood disorders
A single mutation that causes a number of blood disorders ahs been found out .This may lead to a more accurate diagnosis//, according to a new study. Researchers were able to develop a diagnostic test, which could pinpoint a gene mutation found in most patients with myeloproliferative blood disorders. These disorders are characterized by an overproduction of blood cells and can cause hem...Barraquer Cyclodialysis Spatula
