Stem Cell Architecture Drives Myelodysplastic Syndrome Progression

Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center discovered that treatment resistance in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is caused by two distinct classes of stem cells and identified possible therapeutic approaches that target these cells. Their findings, which could have significant benefits for patients with disease progression, were published today in Nature Medicine. More...

Biochemical Abnormalities Among Celiac Disease Patients Referred for Antibody Testing

Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic disease occurring in all age groups and affecting approximately 1% of the population, although many cases of CD remain undiagnosed. This condition is caused by an abnormal immune response in genetically susceptible individuals triggered by the ingestion of gluten proteins from wheat, rye and barley. More...
