The Wellcome-funded diagnostic – developed by researchers at University College London (UCL) and the Western Eye Hospital – allows doctors to see individual nerve cell death in the back of the eye. Early detection means doctors can start treatment before sight loss begins. The test also has potential for early diagnosis of other degenerative neurological […]
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and other biomarkers are essential tools for diagnosing and monitoring prostate cancer. However, biomarkers to selectively identify patients with high risk of recurrence, those who might benefit from intervention, and those who can safely choose active surveillance, are lacking. A report describes a biomarker, PITX2 DNA methylation, which is capable of distinguishing […]
The scientists from the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital at McGill University, led by Peter McPherson, along with collaborators in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Germany, and at SickKids Hospital and the University of Toronto, have discovered that a severe form of epileptic encephalopathy is caused by recessive loss-of-function mutations in the gene DENND5A. Epileptic encephalopathy is […]
In overweight and obese children and adolescents, vitamin D deficiency is associated with early markers of cardiovascular disease, a new study reports. "Paediatric obesity affects 17 percent of infants, children, and adolescents ages 2 to 19 in the United States, and obesity is a risk factor for vitamin D deficiency. These findings suggest that vitamin […]
Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) researchers have identified a mechanism that controls the expression of genes regulating the growth of the most aggressive form of medulloblastoma, the most common paediatric brain tumour. The team also identifies potential targets for future treatments. “We set out to find the most important regulators of gene expression programs in medulloblastoma,” […]
The health risks and mortality associated with pre-diabetes seem to increase at the lower cut-off point for blood sugar levels recommended by some guidelines, finds a large study published. Pre-diabetes is a ‘pre-diagnosis’ of diabetes — when a person’s blood glucose level is higher than normal, but not high enough to be considered diabetes. If […]
More than 3,000 medical laboratory industry professionals expected to attend the launch edition of MEDLAB Europe at the Fira Gran Via in Barcelona, Spain. After many years of operating successful MEDLAB events around Africa, Asia and the Middle East, Informa Life Sciences Exhibitions has announced that the MEDLAB Series will be expanding its presence into […]
The molecular causes of diseases such as Parkinson’s need to be understood as a first step towards combating them. University of Konstanz chemists working alongside Professor Malte Drescher recently succeeded in analysing what happens when selective mutations of the alpha-synuclein protein occur – a protein that is closely linked to Parkinson’s disease. In a complex […]
With the medical laboratory market in the UAE expected to continue on a growth trajectory, innovative products and next-generation technology remains a focus for the region’s medical laboratory and IVD industry Dubai, UAE, 25th January 2017: As the UAE gears up for a boom in the In-Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) market, expected to reach USD 0.83 […]
A gene previously identified as critical for tumour growth in many human cancers also maintains intestinal stem cells and encourages the growth of cells that support them, according to results of a study led by Johns Hopkins researchers. The finding adds to evidence for the intimate link between stem cells and cancer, and advances prospects […]
