Biomarker Predicts Pancreatic Cancer Patients’ Response to CD40 Immunotherapy

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common type of pancreatic cancer and currently the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the USA. Despite the fact that it only accounts for about 3% of new cancer cases, it is responsible for more than 7% of all cancer deaths, and only10% of patients survive five years with the disease. More...

Blood Test Distinguishes Epileptic Seizures From PNES

Epilepsy is a central nervous system (neurological) disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations, and sometimes loss of awareness. Epilepsy affects both males and females of all races, ethnic backgrounds and ages. More...

TFP Inhibitor Levels Elevated in Bleeding Tendency Patients

Mild to moderate bleeding disorders (MBDs) are characterized by symptoms such as epistaxis, easy bruising, or menorrhagia, but bleeding can also be severe under certain circumstances such as hemorrhage after surgery or birth. More...

New Control Mechanism Discovered in Innate Immune System

Proteases are enzymes that cleave other proteins. Most often, proteases occur in cascade networks, where a particular event triggers a chain reaction in which several proteases cleave and thereby activate each other. Most well-known is probably the coagulation cascade, which causes clotting of our blood when a vessel is punctured. More...

Prolonged Maternal Zika Viremia Evaluated for Adverse Perinatal Outcomes

The recent worldwide epidemic confirmed maternal–fetal transmission of Zika virus (ZIKV) and its association with adverse perinatal outcomes, particularly severe central nervous system lesions and fetal losses. More...

Early Plasma Biomarkers Discovered for Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the predominant form of dementia and the most common neurodegenerative disorder. Advanced age and the presence of the ε4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) are the most relevant late‐onset sporadic AD‐promoting factors as they interact with the core mechanisms of this neurologic disorder. More...

Proinflammatory T Cell Polarization Investigated in Early Knee Osteoarthritis

In osteoarthritis (OA), the cartilage in the knee joint gradually wears away. As the cartilage wears away, it becomes frayed and rough, and the protective space between the bones decreases. This can result in bone rubbing on bone, and produce painful bone spurs. Osteoarthritis develops slowly and the pain it causes worsens over time. More...
