2012-01-10

New way to learn about -- and potentially block -- traits in harmful pathogens

New way to learn about -- and potentially block -- traits in harmful pathogens
2012-01-10
DURHAM, N.C. -- Researchers at Duke University Medical Center have developed a new way to identify the genes of harmful microbes, particularly those that have been difficult to study in the laboratory. This new method uses chemicals to create mutant bacteria, followed by genomic sequencing to identify all mutations. By looking for common genes that were mutated in Chlamydia sharing a particular trait, the investigators were able to rapidly "zero in" on the genes responsible for that trait. The approach is versatile and inexpensive enough that it could be applied to ...

Biomarkers identify acute kidney injury in emergency patients

2012-01-10
Acute kidney injury (AKI) has severe consequences, with a 25 to 80 percent risk of in-hospital death.

The study will be published online on January 9, 2012, in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Physicians typically measure a patient's creatinine levels to determine kidney function. But creatinine levels can remain normal for several hours after acute kidney damage, and an accurate ...

Protein complex plays role in suppressing pancreatic tumors, Stanford study shows

2012-01-10
STANFORD, Calif. — A well-known protein complex responsible for controlling how DNA is expressed plays a previously unsuspected role in preventing pancreatic cancer, according to researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Technological advances in the way researchers can compare normal and tumor DNA showed that the gene for at least one subunit of the multi-subunit SWI/SNF protein complex was either deleted, mutated or rearranged in about a third of the 70 human pancreatic cancers that the Stanford team examined. Additionally, the researchers found that ...
