Novel Hybrid Drug Effectively Corrects Metabolic Syndrome in Mouse Model
An innovative hybrid drug consisting of a glucagon-like peptide-1-estrogen conjugate was shown to be better than the individual hormones alone in correcting obesity, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia in a mouse model of human metabolic syndrome. More...03 Dec 2012
Reversing MicroRNA Suppression Cures Mice with Otherwise Fatal Leukemia
A recent paper described how overexpression and long-term exposure to the cytokine IL-15 can initiate cancer development and demonstrated an effective targeted drug for potential therapy of human large granular lymphocytic leukemia. More...29 Nov 2012
Microparticles Coated with Apoptotic Antigens Blunt Autoimmune Attack
The molecular processes responsible for autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis can be shut down by exposing cells in the immune system to microparticles coated with antigens from cells that have been reduced to fragments by apoptosis. More...29 Nov 2012
Nitric Oxide Nanoparticles Increase the Chemosensitivity of Neuroblastoma Cells
Australian drug developers have found a way to encapsulate nitric oxide into nanoparticles, and the delivery of nitric oxide by these particles was found to increase sensitivity of neuroblastoma cells to chemotherapy by a factor of five. More...28 Nov 2012
