Researchers at the Faculty of Health Sciences have succeeded in decoding the genetic key that gives particular intestinal cells their identity. With this knowledge of the complex network of genes the researchers now hope to stop colon cancer by activating special anti-cancer genes. Colon sloughs lining The intestines have to work properly if we are [...]

Detection of circulating and disseminated tumor cells in blood is a promising methodology to diagnose cancer dissemination or to follow up cancer patients during therapy. Today, the detection analyses of these cells are performed in medical laboratories requiring labor intensive, expensive and time-consuming sample processing and cell isolation steps… addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.waterdietblog.com%2Funcategorized%2Feuropean-collaborative-research-to-develop-lab-on-chip-system-for-cheap-and-fast-cancer-diagnosis’; addthis_title = ‘European+Collaborative+Research+To+Develop+Lab-on-chip+System+For+Cheap+And+Fast+Cancer+Diagnosis’; [...]

Where’s the beef? Rather, where are the Escherichia coli (commonly referred to and spelled as E. coli) in my beef? It has been found that infrared spectroscopy detects E. coli (named for discovery by German pediatrician and bacteriologist Theodor Escherich) far more rapidly than current testing options… addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.waterdietblog.com%2Funcategorized%2Finfrared-detects-e-coli-in-beef-within-an-hour-instead-of-a-week-protecting-public-health-more-efficiently’; addthis_title = ‘Infrared+Detects+E.+Coli+In+Beef+Within+An+Hour+Instead+Of+A+Week+Protecting+Public+Health+More+Efficiently’; addthis_pub = [...]

Black patients die from colorectal cancer at much higher rates than whites do and new research points to unequal health care as the cause. While deaths from colorectal cancer have declined over the past 40 years, the declines have been uneven, said lead author Samir Soneji, Ph.D., of the Robert Wood Johnson Health and Society [...]

The data monitoring committee of the AVERROES study, seeing overwhelming evidence of the success of apixaban in the prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation who are unsuitable for the conventional treatment of warfarin, has recommended early termination of this study. The decision came after repeated review and careful consideration of all efficacy and [...]

On August 29 at the European Cardiovascular Society Congress meeting in Stockholm, Sweden, Dr. Guillaume Paré presented new research conducted by McMaster University that in fact contradicts earlier reports that Plavix (clopidogrel) does not work in people with a certain genetic make-up. Paré is the lead researcher and assistant professor of pathology and molecular medicine [...]

Chemists at Indiana University Bloomington have designed a molecule that binds chloride ions — but can be conveniently compelled to release the ions in the presence of ultraviolet light.

Responding to the interim decision by NICE not to recommend bevacizumab (Avastin) as a treatment for metastic colorectal cancer, Mike Hobday, Head of Policy at Macmillan Cancer Support, said: ‘We think this is devastating news for cancer patients with metastic colorectal cancer, especially as this drug could have a significant impact on peoples’ quality of [...]

Scientists at Jefferson Medical College have received a four-year, $3 million National Institutes of Health grant funded by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute to study variations of platelet function, specifically, the genetics of platelet gene expression… addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.waterdietblog.com%2Funcategorized%2Fjefferson-receive-3-million-nih-grant-to-study-platelets’; addthis_title = ‘Jefferson+Receive+%243+Million+NIH+Grant+To+Study+Platelets’; addthis_pub = ”;
