New Genetic Cause Discovered for Dystonia
Dystonia is one of the commonest movement disorders and is thought to affect 70,000 people in the UK alone. It can cause a wide range of disabling symptoms, including painful muscle spasms and abnormal postures, and can affect walking and speech. More...03 Jan 2017
Highest Sensitivity Liquid Biopsy Test Introduced for Lung Cancer
Approximately 20% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients test positive for an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) driver mutation and receive EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) therapy, but unfortunately, most will develop a resistance to this type of therapy. More...03 Jan 2017
Ribosomal Protein Expression Specifies Normal and Malignant Human Cells
Proteins are the building blocks of life, produced by molecular machines called ribosomes. A human ribosome is composed of four ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and 80 ribosomal proteins (RPs), and its structure is believed to be largely invariant. More...29 Dec 2016
Serum MiR-122 Levels Associated with Histopathological Features of NAFLD
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) can only be diagnosed by the presence of histopathological components, such as steatosis, lobular inflammation, ballooning, and fibrosis and therefore there is a need for non-invasive surrogate markers of histopathological features. More...28 Dec 2016
Bioinformatics Tool for Evaluating the Evaluation of Cancer Genes
Researchers offer a new software tool being developed to help assess computational algorithms used in methods to identify mutant genes that drive cancer. The tool could thereby lead to more precise diagnostics and targeted treatments for patients. More...28 Dec 2016
