Gene Mutation Provides Clue to Vibratory Urticaria

Patients with autosomal dominant vibratory urticaria have localized hives and systemic manifestations in response to dermal vibration, with coincident degranulation of mast cells and increased histamine levels in serum.   More...

Fast and Accurate Cystic Fibrosis Test Developed for Newborns

A fast, inexpensive and highly accurate test to screen newborns for cystic fibrosis has been developed, which detects virtually all mutations in the cystic fibrosis gene.  More...

Listeria Hypervirulence Uncovered by Harnessing Its Biodiversity

The Listeria monocytogenes bacterium responsible for the severe foodborne infection, listeriosis, especially in pregnant women and the elderly is subjected to a stringent microbiological monitoring system.  More...

Prognostic Biomarker Found for Colon Cancer Patients

The majority of colon cancer patients whose tumors have started to travel to nearby tissue but no further are cured by surgery alone, but in a minority of these stage II colon cancer cases the cancer returns and the patients die.  More...

Blood Test Improves Treatment for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

A simple blood test has been developed that is capable of detecting trace levels of leukemia cells remaining after intensive chemotherapy. The test can predict which patients with acute myeloid leukemia are at risk of their cancer returning in the future, helping to guide doctors on what further treatment is needed.   More...

Aberrant Gene Expression Predicts Metastatic Endometrial and Lung Cancers

The spread of cancer cells from the initial site of occurrence, the primary site, to other secondary tissues is called metastasis, and contributes to poor or limited response of cancer cells to treatments, which results in death.  More...

Fungal Infection Identified by Pathogen Detection Array Technology

Patients who are undergoing treatment for diseases such as cancer often face the added challenge of a compromised immune system, which can be challenging to both of their condition and the drugs used to treat it, leaving them vulnerable to various opportunistic infections.  More...
