    Genetics a New Trail For Medical Advancement
    2008-01-18 04:42:00
    The miraculous substance, DNA, which contains all the genetic instructions, is rapidly becoming a key to modern medicine. By focusing on the diaphanous and extraordinarily long filaments of DNA, scientists are finding the root causes of dozens of previously mysterious diseases.Recently, scientists have made spectacular progress against a fatal genetic disease, cystic fibrosis, affecting children. The scientists have succeeded in correcting the gene defect inside living human cells by inserting healthy genes into these cells in a laboratory dish.The Progress in the field of medical genetics is gaining momentum. Scientists are constantly trying to work on effective ways to cure genetic disorders.The National Institute of Science and Media keeps you informed on the recent advances in biotechnology and science through the various titles published on the subject. Joel Ball, the lead author of the titles published under the NISM name is a renowned figure in publishing and scientific circles....

    The Genetics of Panic Disorder
    2007-12-19 12:18:25
    A study published earlier this year in the American Journal of Medical Genetics suggests that lymphoblast gene expression may be used to identify biomarkers for panic disorder. Researchers at the University of Iowa evaluated gene expression profiles in lymphoblasts (immature white blood cells) cultured from patients with and without panic disorder and found specific disorder- [...]...

    Individual Genetics, Coffee Consumption, BRCA1 and Breast Cancer
    2007-10-20 05:58:24
    We’ve talked previously about the health benefits of coffee and the antioxidant compounds responsible for it’s bitterness. To add to the “perks” of coffee consumption, a recent report in the Journal of Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers & Prevention suggests that caffeine protects against breast cancer in women that have a BRCA1 gene mutation. What is BRCA1? The [...]...

    The Genetics of Hearing and Balance in Zebrafish
    2006-03-19 11:44:13
    Annual Review of GeneticsVol. 39: 9-22 (Volume publication date December 2005)The Genetics of Hearing and Balance in ZebrafishTeresa NicolsonOregon Hearing Research Center and Vollum Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, Oregon 97239Abstract:The zebrafish is an excellent model system for studying the molecular basis of inner ear development and function. The eggs develop ex utero and the ear is transparent for the first few weeks of life. Forward genetic screens and antisense technology have helped to elucidate the signaling pathways and molecules required for inner ear development and function. This review addresses the most recent advances in our understanding of how the ear forms and discusses the molecules in hair cells that are essential for sensing sound and movement in the zebrafish.[This item has been included because a post on the lateral line and the proposed internal evolutionary mechanism will eventually appear in the Personal Posts category of this weblog]technorati tags: lateral+line, zebrafish, genetics, ear, weblog ...
