Researchers find new genes necessary to make embryo

Researchers at New York University and the medical schools at Harvard and Yale universities have identified new genes necessary for embryonic development, according to findings published in the latest issue of Genome Research. This discovery is an important step toward a complete mapping of which parts of the genome are required for embryonic development. The new findings also probe into how gene...

Researchers show key protein necessary for normal development of red blood cells

Virginia Commonwealth University researchers studying hemoglobin genes, mutations of which play a role in genetic blood disorders like sickle cell anemia and beta-thalassemia, have shown in studies with mice that the KLF2 protein is crucial for making young red blood cells. The findings may point researchers to future gene therapies for patients with sickle cell anemia and beta-thalassemi...

Newborn screening can cause unnecessary parental stress

Virtually all babies in the U.S. have their heels pricked soon after birth to get a blood sample for genetic testing. These "heel stick" tests identify rare metabolic disorders before they cause irreversible damage, but as more disorders are added to the screening ?many states now test for 30 or more ?false-positive results are on the rise. In the June issue of Pediatrics, researchers from Childr...

Mass vaccination unnecessary in the event of a large bioterrorist US smallpox attack

Mass vaccination would not be necessary in the event of a large-scale smallpox bioterrorist attack in the United States, according to a study led by researchers at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center that appears online in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases. Instead, the current U.S. government policy of post-release surveillance, prompt containment of victims and vaccinat...

Proteins necessary for brain development found to be critical for long-term memory

A type of protein crucial for the growth of brain cells during development appears to be equally important for the formation of long-term memories, according to researchers at UC Irvine. The findings could lead to a better understanding of, and treatments for, cognitive decline associated with normal aging and diseases such as Alzheimer's. The findings appear in the early online edition...

Is RNA Amplification Necessary for Microarrays?

RNA amplification using the Van Gelder and Eberwine technique (1) has been used extensively for target synthesis and labeling in array analysis experiments. Amplification of RNA is clearly necessary when working with limited samples (needle biopsies, LCM samples, etc.), but is...

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...

Exercise is necessary in daily life

Exercise experts at the University of Alabama suggest turning back the clock to up your physical activity level. Even small increases of activity could prevent over half of new cases of type 2 diabetes,// one of the major contributors to death from heart disease. Exercise physiologist Dr. Gary Hunter of the University of Alabama at Birmingham points to our modern way of life as being...

Iron supplementation quite necessary

Hypertensive drugs in general have a common side effect- cough. Iron supplementation cures the annoying cough that often plagues people on a widely-used blood pressure medication. The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are often used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure and other cardiac conditions. //But up to 40% of people on ACE inhibitors are troubled by a cough. T...

Unnecessary Pap Smears

Millions of women may be unnecessarily screened for cervical cancer, according to a new study. According to the study , researchers say that routine // Pap smears are unnecessary for women who have undergone complete hysterectomies for non-cancerous diseases. Since most of these women no longer have a cervix, they are no longer at risk for cervical cancer. A survey done by researchers on...

Patients Are Given Catheter Longer Than Necessary

Hospital staff may be keeping patients on urinary catheters longer than necessary, increasing their risks //to urinary tract infections and blood infections, said a new study published in the Joint Commission Journal on Quality and Patient Safety. The study says that a simple reminder note put by the nursing staff for the doctors might solve this problem. Research showed that about 25...
