Scientists Reengineer Cancer Drugs to Be More Versatile

TEHRAN (ANA)- Rice University scientists have enlisted widely used cancer therapy systems to control gene expression in mammalian cells, a feat of synthetic biology that could change how diseases are treated.

Study Uncovers Mechanisms of Reactive Oxygen Species in Stem Cell Function

TEHRAN (ANA)- Mount Sinai researchers have published one of the first studies to demonstrate the importance of reactive oxygen species in maintaining stem cell function and preventing inflammation during wound repair, which could provide greater insights into the prevention and treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).

Successful Cure of HIV Infection after Stem Cell Transplantation

TEHRAN (ANA)- Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of severe blood cancers is the only medical intervention that has cured two people living with HIV in the past and an international group of physicians and researchers  at the German Center for Infection Research has now identified another case in which HIV infection has been shown to be cured in the same way.

New Tool Reveals What Happens When We Learn

TEHRAN (ANA)- Researchers at Scripps Research examined how the levels of various proteins in brain cells change in response to brain activity.

Researchers Capture How Genes Fold, Work

TEHRAN (ANA)- A new imaging technique created by Barcelona-based researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) and the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) captures the three-dimensional architecture of the human genome with unprecedented detail, showing how individual genes fold at the level of nucleosomes, the fundamental units constituting the genome’s three-dimensional architecture.

Cancer Stem Cells Fueled through Dialogue with Their Environments

TEHRAN (ANA)- New findings by the Rockefeller University suggest that many of the mutations in cancer may simply be setting in stone a path already forged by the tumor stem cell's aberrant dialogue with its surroundings.

Mature ‘Lab Grown’ Neurons Hold Promise for Neurodegenerative Diseases Like Alzheimer’s

TEHRAN (ANA)- A team of researchers led by Northwestern University has achieved a breakthrough by producing the most mature neurons to date from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).

New Sensor Can Diagnose Cancer Using Urine

TEHRAN (ANA)- A research team from Kyung Hee University Medical School has succeeded in developing a strip-type urine sensor that can amplify the light signal of metabolites in urine and in diagnosing cancer in the field.

New Research Links Irritable Bowel Syndrome to Reduced Bacterial Diversity

TEHRAN (ANA)- A team of researchers from Korea University College of Medicine have found that individuals with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) have a decreased diversity of bacteria in their intestines compared to healthy individuals.

Improving Health, Safety of Foodstuffs with Help of Cold Plasma
