Variations in T-cells Identifies Susceptibility to Disease
Different cells of the human body differ greatly in structure and function; however, variation exists even among cells of one type and it is now suggested that the magnitude of such differences in T lymphocytes, or T cells, may indicate an individual's age and genetic predisposition to disease.

Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection Predicted in High-Risk Pregnant Women
Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection can cause serious complications such as hearing difficulties and mental delay in affected infants. A new method for predicting congenital CMV infection during the prenatal period has been discovered. This method is safe for both mothers and fetuses, and could potentially be adopted for general use. More...08 Dec 2016
Peptide Serum Markers Predict Type 1 Diabetes
Certain proteins in the blood of children can predict incipient type 1 diabetes, even before the first symptoms appear. Children who have a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes and who consequently have an increased risk of developing the disease due to the familial predisposition. More...01 Dec 2016
Tumor Cells in Blood Samples Predict Prostate Cancer Spread
A group of circulating tumor cells (CTC) in prostate cancer patient blood samples has been found which are linked to the spread of the disease and this is the first time these cell types have been shown to be a promising marker for prostate cancer spread. More...25 Nov 2016
Blood Test May Help Identify Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
Fetal alcohol syndrome is a severe form of a spectrum of mental and physical disabilities called fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) that can affect children's development with long-lasting consequences and a blood test has been developed to predict the severity of disability.
