CD69 Biomarker Expression Predicts Atherosclerosis Risk
Atherosclerosis is a disease characterized by the accumulation of lipid deposits in the artery wall, but the disease is usually not detected until after it has caused a clinical event such as a myocardial infarction or stroke. More...22 Jan 2019
Urinary Detection Method Developed for Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common types of malignancy worldwide and is the second leading cause of cancer death among men. This cancer tends to be asymptomatic and slow growing, often with onset in young men, but usually not detected until the age of 40 to 50 years. More...22 Jan 2019
Latinos and Hispanics Prone to Kidney Disease Gene Variant
Risk variants in the apolipoprotein A-I (APOL1) gene on chromosome 22, which were first discovered in African Americans, confer a substantially increased risk of kidney disease, early-onset hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, although disease risk is modified by other genetic factors and by environmental factors.

New Risk Loci Identified for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction and polycystic ovarian morphology. Affected women frequently have metabolic disturbances including insulin resistance and dysregulation of glucose homeostasis. More...09 Jan 2019
Test Detects Protein Associated with Alzheimer’s and CTE
An ultrasensitive test has been developed that detects a corrupted protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). This advance could lead to early diagnosis of these conditions and how they originate. More...09 Jan 2019
Diverse Chronic Kidney Diseases Diagnosed with Exome Sequencing
Exome sequencing is emerging as a first-line diagnostic method in some clinical disciplines, but its usefulness has yet to be examined for most constitutional disorders in adults, including chronic kidney disease, which affects more than 1 in 10 persons globally. More...08 Jan 2019
