Proteomics Approach Used for Analyses of Breast Cancer
Accurate classification of breast tumors is vital for patient management decisions and enables more precise cancer treatment. Despite the progress achieved in early cancer diagnosis and therapy, many patients develop the deadly disease. More...31 Jul 2019

Rare Inherited Enzyme Disorder Yields Insight into Fibrosis
Mammalian tissues and organs preserve their structural and functional homeostasis by means of their supportive connective tissue, a three-dimensional network of cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) with different topological characteristics depending on the organ/tissue in which it is embedded. More...31 Jul 2019

Methods Evaluated to Detect Asymptomatic Visceral Leishmaniasis
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is caused by Leishmania infantum [synonymous L. chagasi] in the New World or L. donovani in the Old World, VL can be classified as an anthroponotic or zoonotic disease because it is transmitted between humans and others mammals, such as dogs. More...24 Jul 2019

Collagen Biomarkers Clarify Prognosis of Diabetic Renal Complications
Type 1 diabetes, once known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Insulin is a hormone needed to allow sugar (glucose) to enter cells to produce energy. More...24 Jul 2019

Immune Molecules Expressed Inside Mycetoma Lesions
Mycetoma is a persistent, progressive granulomatous inflammatory disease caused either by fungi or by bacteria. Characteristic of this disease is that the causative agents organize themselves in macroscopic structures called grains. These grains are surrounded by a massive inflammatory reaction. More...24 Jul 2019

Immunoglobulins and Neutrophils Play Unexpected Role in Anaphylaxis
Anaphylaxis may be brought about by various substances, including drugs (antibiotics or neuromuscular blocking agents), food and insect venom. Anaphylaxis is a hyperacute allergic reaction caused by an inappropriate immune response following the introduction of a usually harmless antigen into the body. More...23 Jul 2019

T Cell Antibody and Memory in H7N9 Survivors Characterized
Avian influenza A (H7N9) is a subtype of influenza viruses that have been detected in birds in the past. This particular A (H7N9) virus had not previously been seen in either animals or people until it was found in March 2013 in China. More...19 Jul 2019
