“Softer” Mass Spec Techniques Gain Advantage in Biomarker Discovery
Two mass spectrometry technologies, MALDI and DESI, are increasing in applications as their effectiveness is established, according to Kalorama Information in its report “Proteomics Markets for Research and IVD Applications - Mass Spectrometry, Chromatography, Microarrays, Electrophoresis, Immunoassays, Other Technologies.” More...29 Mar 2015

Regenerative Potential Is a Trait of Mature Tissues, Not an Innate Feature of Newly Born Cells
Diabetes researchers have found that the ability of insulin-producing beta cells to replicate and respond to elevated glucose concentrations is absent in very young animals and does not appear until after weaning. More...25 Mar 2015
Presenilin Gene Mutation Linked to Familial form of Alzheimer's Disease
Results obtained in studies using a genetically engineered mouse model of hereditary Alzheimer's disease pointed to the importance of reduced gamma-secretase activity caused by a mutation in the presenilin gene. More...24 Mar 2015
The Captureseq Technique Is More Accurate for Low Expressing Genes and Long Non-Coding RNAs
The powerful new CaptureSeq technique for gene analysis was shown to be superior for detecting and quantifying genes with low expression while showing little technical variation and accurately measured differential expression of long non-coding RNAs. More...24 Mar 2015
