Products containing specific probes for detecting alternative splice forms protected
ExonHit Therapeutics, today announced the grant of a major patent, US # 6,881,571, by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on microarray products allowing the specific detection of mRNAs produced by alternative splicing, covering microarrays optimised for the discovery of alternative RNA splicing events. The patent protects the probe configuration of a unique set of five oligonucleotides...Scientists generate patient-specific stem cells, Science study says
Scientists have isolated the first human embryonic stem cell lines specifically tailored to match the nuclear DNA of patients, both males and females of various ages, suffering from disease or spinal cord injury. These ce...Identification of specific genes predicts which patients will respond to Hepatitis C treatment
For the first time, physicians at University Health Network and University of Toronto have identified a small subset of genes that can predict whether a patient with chronic Hepatitis C will be able to respond to current treatments. The study, published in t...Eating, body weight regulated by specific neurons
In findings with implications for pandemic influenza, a new study reports for the first time that a less-virulent strain of avian influenza virus can spread from poultry to humans. The research appears in the October 1 issue of The Journal of Infectious Diseases, now available online. Crossing the species barrier is an important step in the development of a flu virus with pandemic potenti...Tool developed to silence genes in specific tissues using RNAi
Researchers at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center say they have jumped a significant hurdle in the use of RNA interference (RNAi), believed by many to be the ultimate tool to both decode the function of individual genes in the human genome and to treat disease. Reporting in the journal Genes and Development, investigators have developed a simple way to use the RNAi appro...Specific at Biology Products

Antisense gene specific therapy for Ebola virus
Professor Sina Bavari and team from the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases have found that antisense genetic sequence of the Ebola virus could help protection and treatment of humans // from wild strains of Ebola virus. This therapy is very important and still more has to be done as this Ebola virus offers a great threat of bioterrorism. The results of this research work...Gene testing kit specific for Doctors
A new model genetic testing kit could soon be procurable in the doctor's office or the drugstore to test for infection and adverse drug responses. Researchers at LGC// (Laboratory of the Government Chemist) have been working to produce a DNA test kit which uses saliva, blood or urine samples and produces results within 15 to 20 minutes. The device has been made small the size of a sho...Response to chemotherapy could be measured by Prostate-Specific Antigen Doubling Time
Researchers from the department of urology in a hospital in Switzerland who investigated whether chemotherapeutic response to hormone-refractory prostate cancer could be measured via changes in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) found that prostate cancer doubling time may be an auxiliary marker of response to chemotherapy// in patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer. The study...Heart Drug Also Effective In Preventing Specific Causes Of Death
A drug commonly prescribed for people with high blood pressure and heart failure may also benefit those with other conditions that put them at higher risk for heart attacks and stroke. Researchers conducted a study among // about 9,000 men and women from the Heart Outcomes Prevention Evaluation (HOPE) study. All were 55 or older and suffering from heart-related problems other than heart failur...Specific Changes In A Particular Gene Found To Increase The Risk of Alzheimer’s Diseas
Researchers say they have now identified a gene variant that may increase the risk of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, // which in turn could lead to improved understanding of the disease and new prevention and treatment developments. According to latest research it was seen that specific changes in the gene in a protein called ubiquilin-1 was associated with an increased incidence of Alzheimer’s....Specific at Medicine Products
