Scientists identify the role of vitamin D in activation of T cells
March 8, 2010[Story ID: 741]
Scientists at the University of Copenhagen have discovered that Vitamin D is crucial to activating our immune defenses and that without sufficient intake of the vitamin, the killer cells of the immune system – T cells – will not be able to react to and fight off serious infections in the body. -
Neurogenesis linked to drug addiction and relapse
February 27, 2010[Story ID: 616]
Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center hope they have begun paving a new pathway in the fight against drug dependence. Their hypothesis – that increasing the normally occurring process of making nerve cells might prevent addiction – is based on a rodent study demonstrating that blocking new growth of specific brain nerve cells [...] -
Researchers develop new tool to understand how cancer grows
February 22, 2010[Story ID: 528]
Researchers have a new tool to understand how cancers grow — and with it a new opportunity to identify novel cancer drugs. They’ve been able to break apart human prostate tissue, extract the stem cells in that tissue, and alter those cells genetically so that they spur cancer. -

Stanford researchers use DNA minicircles to induce pluripotency in stem cells from human fat
February 8, 2010[Story ID: 260]
Tiny circles of DNA are the key to a new and easier way to transform stem cells from human fat into induced pluripotent stem cells for use in regenerative medicine, say scientists at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Unlike other commonly used techniques, the method, which is based on standard molecular biology [...] -
GIS: Tbx3 gene improves quality of stem cells reprogrammed from differentiated cells
February 8, 2010[Story ID: 265]
In the 7 Feb. 2010 issue of the journal Nature, scientists at the Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS), report that a genetic molecule, called Tbx3, which is crucial for many aspects of early developmental processes in mammals, significantly improves the quality of stem cells that have been reprogrammed from differentiated cells. -
Scientists discover new technique to destroy individual diseased cells
February 5, 2010[Story ID: 226]
Using lasers and nanoparticles, scientists at Rice University have discovered a new technique for singling out individual diseased cells and destroying them with tiny explosions.
