New insights into progressive hearing loss
12 Apr 2009
Human and mouse share hearing deficit caused by mutation in microRNA In parallel studies in human and mouse, two groups of researchers have come to the same conclusion: that a new kind of gene is associated with progressive hearing loss. The...

New alternative to biopsy detects subtle changes in cancer cells, Stanford study shows
12 Apr 2009
STANFORD, Calif. — A drop of blood or a chunk of tissue smaller than the period at the end of this sentence may one day be all that is necessary to diagnose cancers and assess their response to treatment, say researchers at the Stanford...

UCSF team closer to creating safe embryonic-like stem cells
12 Apr 2009
A team of UCSF researchers has for the first time used tiny molecules called microRNAs to help turn adult mouse cells back to their embryonic state. These reprogrammed cells are pluripotent, meaning that, like embryonic stem cells, they have...
