Three-Dimensional Printing Generates Bone Replacement Structures
A team of biomedical engineers adapted three-dimensional printing to manufacture bone transplant structures whose shape could be easily customized, which would be especially useful for the treatment of bone defects in children. More...14 Oct 2016

Protein Found Blocks Transmission of Cytotoxic Fibrils in Parkinson's Disease Model
Neurodegenerative disease researchers have identified a protein that promotes the spread of toxic alpha-synuclein complexes in the brains of mice serving as a model system for human Parkinson's disease (PD). More...12 Oct 2016


Bifunctional Dimer Drugs Prove Effective in Parkinson's Disease Yeast Model
A team of Canadian neurodegenerative disease researchers used a yeast model system to identify novel drug compounds that were able to block the misfolding of alpha- synuclein (AS) protein, which characterizes the neurons of patients with Parkinson's disease. More...11 Oct 2016

Maintaining Normal Paneth Cell Levels Prevents Intestinal Bowel Disease
The enzyme PKC-lamda/iota (protein kinase C-lamda/iota) plays a critical role in the intestinal epithelium where it influences development of inflammatory diseases and cancer through its regulation of Paneth cell metabolism. More...06 Oct 2016
