Sequencing Tracks Animal-to-Human Transmission of Bacterial Pathogens
EMBO Molecular Medicine research confirms the animal-to-human transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in two Danish farms.
Cancer Stem Cells Isolated From Kidney Tumors
Scientists have isolated cancer stem cells that lead to the growth of Wilms’ tumors, a type of cancer typically found in the kidneys of young children. The researchers have used these cancer stem cells to test a new therapeutic approach that one day might be used to treat some of the more aggressive types of this disease. The results are published online in EMBO Molecular Medicine.
Neural Stem Cell Transplant May Tackle Diabetes
Researchers in Japan have discovered how a patient’s neural stem cells could be used as an alternative source of the beta cells needed for a regenerative treatment for diabetes. The research, published in EMBO Molecular Medicine today, reveals how harvesting stem cells could overcome a lack of beta cell transplants from donors.
‘Blueprint’ for Blocking MMP May Unlock New Treatments for Deadly Blood Infection
Researchers studying the life threatening infectious disease sepsis have discovered how the infection can lead to a fatal inflammatory response through blood vessel cells.
Research Shows How Pathogenic Bacteria Hide Inside Host Cells
Phenotype Switching Allows Bacteria to Escape from Immune System and Antibiotics to Lie Dormant, reports EMBO
Alzheimer's Disease: Newly Found Peptide Offers Hope of Early Test and Better Treatment
Researchers in Japan have detected a peptide in that can show whether a person is developing Alzheimer’s disease.
