Kidney Disease Reveals DNA Variants Associated with Diabetic Nephropathy
Diabetic kidney disease is a serious complication that develops in some people with both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. It affects the kidneys' ability to filter extra water and waste products from the body and leads to high blood pressure, swollen extremities, loss of concentration, fatigue and could end in kidney failure.

Liquid Biopsy Assays Target Mutations and Improves Recurrence Prediction
The concept of creating bespoke or personalized mutation panels to use for cancer recurrence detection and residual disease monitoring is not new at this point. Scientists began piloting these methods several years ago, initially tracking single mutations and then collections of alterations derived from tumor sequencing data. More...25 Mar 2020
Plasma Virome of Brazilians with Unexplained Symptoms of Infection
Deep sequencing of nucleic acids in clinical samples now allows the identification of any known infectious agents, resulting in improved diagnostic capabilities. Blood from healthy people with high exposure to viral infections has also been analyzed using metagenomics. More...25 Mar 2020
Increased Membrane Glycoprotein Level Predicts Lung Cancer Metastasis
A protein found in extracellular vesicles (Evs) shed by lung cancer cells was found to be an effective, relatively noninvasive biomarker for the early detection of lung cancer metastasis and could shape the direction of therapeutic decisions. More...25 Mar 2020
