Untargeted metabolomics can decide hereditary variation to improve understanding finding Kumar Jeetendra | July 8, 2020 A family and patient walk into a physician’s office. They expect that the most recent tests will show what’s causing the individual’s disease and finish the diagnostic odyssey they’ve been going through for ages. Possessing a precise identification also suggests that perhaps there’s a remedy that can relieve the individual’s condition. To identify the genetic …
Study: Group genomics are liable for animosity in Africanized bumble bees Kumar Jeetendra | July 11, 2020 Researchers regularly study the genomes of human organisms to attempt and tease out the association between genes and behaviour. A brand new study of Africanized honeybees shows, but that the genetic inheritance of human bees has little effect in the propensity for aggression. As an alternative, the genomic faculties of this hive for a whole …
Drug discovery pipeline to exploit transcription factors for cancer therapy Kumar Jeetendra | July 21, 2020 Cancer is a major cause of death and among the most complicated challenges to contemporary medication. By employing cutting-edge technologies that precisely measure the effects of candidate targets and drugs on the fundamental process of transcription, the new start-up firm QUANTRO Therapeutics tries to radically change the precision and range of cell-based drug screening. QUANTRO’s …
Test mRNA-based COVID-19 immunization evokes defensive safe reactions in animals Kumar Jeetendra | July 25, 2020 Two injections of this vaccine were enough to induce robust immunity, completely preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection in mice. MRNA-based vaccines are all attractive options for protecting against SARS-CoV-2 because they may be quickly designed and manufactured at a huge scale within weeks. Moreover, preclinical studies have shown that mRNA-based vaccines cause potent and broadly protective immune …
Custom smartwatch tracks sedate levels inside the body continuously Kumar Jeetendra | August 8, 2020 Engineers in the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering and their colleagues at Stanford School of Medicine have demonstrated that drug levels inside the body is able to be tracked in real time using a custom smartwatch which assesses the compounds found in sweat. This wearable technology can be incorporated into a more personalized approach to …
Study recognizes new arrangement of performing multiple tasks taste cells Kumar Jeetendra | August 15, 2020 Our mouths might be home to some recently discovered group of multi-tasking taste cells -;unlike most famous flavor cells, which discover individual preferences -;are effective at detecting sour, sweet, bitter and umami stimulation. A research team headed by Kathryn Medler at the University at Buffalo reports this discovery in a research published 13th August in …
Seeing how the malaria can withstand fever’s warmth Kumar Jeetendra | October 6, 2020 Even when a man suffering from malaria is burning up with fever and too ill to operate, the little blood-eating parasites lurking inside them continue to flourish, relentlessly growing and multiplying as they gobble up the host’s red blood cells. The single-celled Plasmodium parasites that cause 200 million cases of malaria annually can withstand feverish …
Bruker presents Vutara™ VXL tbest-in-class super-resolution magnifying lens and spatial science investigation abilities Kumar Jeetendra | October 23, 2020 Vutara VXL serves as a biological microscopy workstation for research on DNA, RNA and proteins, from macromolecular complexes and super-structures, to chromatin structure and chromosomal substructures, to studying functional connections in genomes and in various subcellular organelles. This novel system supports innovative spatial biology research in extracellular matrix structures, extracellular vesicles (EV), virology, neuroscience, and …
Blood vessel deformities start in vein cells Kumar Jeetendra | November 3, 2020 In the condition called cavernoma, lesions appear in a cluster of blood vessels in the brain, spinal cord or retina. Researchers from Uppsala University can now reveal, at molecular level, these changes originate in vein cells. This new understanding of the condition creates possibility of developing better treatments for patients. The study was published in …
Hematoxylin compounds can specifically kill CALR mutant cancer cells Kumar Jeetendra | December 11, 2020 Patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), a group of malignant diseases of the bone marrow, often have a carcinogenic mutated form of the calreticulin gene (CALR). Researchers of the research team of Robert Kralovics, Adjunct Principal Investigator in the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and team leader at the …
Hematoxylin compounds can specifically kill CALR freak disease cells Kumar Jeetendra | December 20, 2020 Patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), a group of malignant diseases of the bone marrow, often have a carcinogenic mutated form of the calreticulin gene (CALR). Scientists of the research group of Robert Kralovics, Adjunct Principal Investigator in the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and team leader at the …
Polygenic threat ratings from multi-populace information should enhance IBD predictions Kumar Jeetendra | December 25, 2020 Using genetic data from nearly 30,000 individuals, Mount Sinai researchers have assembled hazard scores from a combination of datasets representing distinct ancestral populations that improve prediction of risk for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The research was published in Gastroenterology on December 24. The researchers found that polygenic risk scores, …
