Research led by the Centenary Institute in Sydney has found a brand new target for treating drug-resistant tuberculosis; our scientists […] Most patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia can be treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. These drugs are highly effective and lead […] A host protein called Serum Amyloid A (Saa) is a major factor mediating the effects of the microbiota on the […] Scientists at the University of Bath have identified how a mutant gene in fish is involved in controlling stem cells. […] Rotator cuff tears are common injuries, and proper healing of the shoulder muscle is often difficult. “Chronic tears often result […] Healthy white blood cells, called “T-cells,” play a crucial role in how the body fights follicular lymphoma. That’s according to […] Traditional cell biology textbooks say that most cells can only differentiate to the same cell type, with the same function. […] An antibody-based treatment can gently and effectively eliminate diseased blood-forming stem cells in the bone marrow to prepare for the […] As the drive to commercialise graphene continues, it is important that all safety aspects are thoroughly researched and understood. The […]
