| Key factors in understanding differences in rates of birth defects identified Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:51 AM PDT New research highlights important information for health professionals and parents about the factors which may increase the likelihood of a baby being born with a birth defect. |
| Bacteria communicate to help each other resist antibiotics Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:51 AM PDT New research unravels a novel means of communication that allows bacteria such as Burkholderia cenocepacia (B. cenocepacia) to resist antibiotic treatment. B. cenocepacia is an environmental bacterium that causes devastating infections in patients with cystic fibrosis. |
| Clues about autism may come from the gut Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:51 AM PDT Scientists present the first comprehensive bacterial analysis focusing on commensal or beneficial bacteria in children with autism spectrum disorder. |
| Study of mitochondrial DNA ties ancient remains to living descendants Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:50 AM PDT Researchers report that they have found a direct genetic link between the remains of Native Americans who lived thousands of years ago and their living descendants. The team used mitochondrial DNA, which children inherit only from their mothers, to track three maternal lineages from ancient times to the present. |
| Biomarker predicts heart attack risk based on response to aspirin therapy Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:45 AM PDT Aspirin has been widely used for more than 50 years as a common, inexpensive blood thinner for patients with heart disease and stroke, but doctors have little understanding of how it works and why some people benefit and others don't. |
| New approaches to understanding infection may uncover novel therapies against influenza Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:43 AM PDT The influenza virus' ability to mutate quickly has produced new, emerging strains that make drug discovery more critical than ever. For the first time, researchers have mapped how critical molecules regulate both the induction and resolution of inflammation during flu infection. |
| First comprehensive regulatory map is a blueprint for how to defeat tuberculosis Posted: 03 Jul 2013 10:58 AM PDT Researchers have taken the first steps toward a complete representation of the regulatory network for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This map will yield unique insights into how the bacteria survive in the host. |
| Lifesaving HIV treatment could reach millions more people following landmark study Posted: 03 Jul 2013 07:14 AM PDT Millions more people could get access to life-saving HIV drug therapy, following a landmark study. |
