Variations in T-cells Identifies Susceptibility to Disease

Different cells of the human body differ greatly in structure and function; however, variation exists even among cells of one type and it is now suggested that the magnitude of such differences in T lymphocytes, or T cells, may indicate an individual's age and genetic predisposition to disease.

Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection Predicted in High-Risk Pregnant Women

Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection can cause serious complications such as hearing difficulties and mental delay in affected infants. A new method for predicting congenital CMV infection during the prenatal period has been discovered. This method is safe for both mothers and fetuses, and could potentially be adopted for general use. More...

Peptide Serum Markers Predict Type 1 Diabetes

Certain proteins in the blood of children can predict incipient type 1 diabetes, even before the first symptoms appear. Children who have a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes and who consequently have an increased risk of developing the disease due to the familial predisposition. More...

Tumor Cells in Blood Samples Predict Prostate Cancer Spread

A group of circulating tumor cells (CTC) in prostate cancer patient blood samples has been found which are linked to the spread of the disease and this is the first time these cell types have been shown to be a promising marker for prostate cancer spread. More...

Blood Test May Help Identify Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders

Fetal alcohol syndrome is a severe form of a spectrum of mental and physical disabilities called fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) that can affect children's development with long-lasting consequences and a blood test has been developed to predict the severity of disability. More...

Inflammatory Markers Correlated with SCA Pain Intensity

Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a hereditary hemolytic anemia where the synthesis of hemoglobin (Hb) is abnormal and the inheritance can be heterozygous (HbS) or homozygous (HbSS). Homozygous patients with SCA often develop vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) and recurrent episodes of hemolysis causing multi-organ infarction and dysfunction. More...
