Transcriptomic Biomarker Assay Developed for Genetic Toxicology Testing
A new in vitro test was designed to solve the problem of false positive results that are frequently obtained when evaluating chemical compounds and potential drugs for their potential to cause genetic damage. More...20 Dec 2017

Increased Genome Variance Found in Mitochondria DNA Study
A team of molecular biologists has developed a method for identification of genetic variants present at the single-mitochondrion level in individual mouse and human neuronal cells, allowing for the extremely high-resolution study of mitochondrial mutation dynamics. More...19 Dec 2017

Oligonucleotide Treatment Reduces Neurological Damage in Alzheimer's Model
Neurological damage in mice that had been genetically engineered to express human apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) - a gene linked to increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease - was significantly reduced by treatment with an antisense oligonucleotide. More...18 Dec 2017

AD Protective Gene Represents Promising Therapeutic Target
Alzheimer's disease (AD) researchers have identified a gene variant that is present in a small percentage of individuals with AD risk factors but who exhibit resilience by living well beyond 75 years of age without developing any clinical symptoms of cognitive decline. More...
