Scientists Find New Genetic Alterations in Lung Cancer
Researchers have detected
dozens of genetic regions that are altered in lung cancer. The
findings provide new clues to the biology of lung cancer and
will help shape future strategies for diagnosing and treating
the disease. Continue reading

Tracking Neural Progenitor Cells in the Human Brain
Scientists have developed the first noninvasive technique for
detecting cells in the living human brain that give birth to
neurons and other types of brain cells. The new method may shed
light on a host of brain-related disorders, including depression,
Parkinson’s disease and brain tumors. Continue reading

Protein Suppresses Allergic Response in Mice
A protein in mice known as RGS13 suppresses allergic reactions,
including the severe, life-threatening allergic reaction known
as anaphylaxis, according to scientists at the National Institute
of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National
Institutes of Health (NIH). Continue reading

Family Members of Patients Who Die in the ICU Report Greater Satisfaction with Communication and Involvement than Family Members of ICU Survivors
Family members of loved ones who died in the intensive care unit
(ICU) tend to be more satisfied with the care they and the patient
received than family members of ICU survivors, according to a study
published in the November 13, 2007, issue of the journal Chest. This study
was funded by the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR),
a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), along with
funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the American
Lung Association. Continue reading

NCI Researchers Uncover Unusual Association Between Cell Survival Proteins and Ovarian Cancer Aggressiveness
An international scientific team led by researchers at the National
Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of Health,
has found that the elevated levels of certain proteins typically
associated with keeping cancer cells alive may actually correspond
with improved patient survival in ovarian cancer. Continue reading

Scientists Zero in on the Cellular Machinery that Enables Neurons to Fire
If you ever had a set of Micronauts — toy robots with removable body parts — you probably had fun swapping their heads, imagining how it would affect their behavior. Scientists supported by the National Institutes of Health have been performing similar experiments on ion channels — pores in our nerve cells — to sort out the channels’ key functional parts. Continue reading
