Genomic Convergence Pinpoints Age-of Onset Gene

Researchers have used a novel method called "genomic convergence” to identify a gene that plays an important role in the process that determines the age at which individuals begin to show symptoms of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. More...

Dendritic Cross-Presentation Modulates Immune Response

In a new study, researchers describe the mechanics of a pathway in dendritic cells responsible for the crosspresentation of antigens to T-cells when the immune system responds to invasion by pathogens. More...

Tumor Severity Linked to DNA Methylation

Researchers using a microarray technique developed to evaluate DNA methylation in tumors have found that the degree of methylation often correlates with the seriousness of the tumor, which has important implications for diagnosing cancer and predicting a patient's prognosis. More...

RNA Found to Stimulate Prion Conversion

A recent study found that a specific species of RNA was required for normal prion protein (PrPC) to convert to the pathogenic scrapie (PrPSc) form that is responsible for such diseases as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and Cruetzfeld-Jakob disease. More...

Mutations Found that Cause Neurologic Disorders

Researchers have identified two mutations in the ATCAY gene, which are apparently responsible for a rare inherited neurologic disorder in humans that is closely mimicked in a mouse model. More...
