  • New Gene Tool May Unlock Root Causes of Disease
    Copyright 2005 Daily News Central

    Genetic researchers have made substantial advances in understanding the root causes of common diseases and the history of human evolution, according to a series of reports published in scientific journals this week.

    Chief among these accomplishments is the work of an international consortium of more than 200 scientists from Canada, China, Japan, Nigeria, the United Kingdom and the United States published in the October 27 issue of the journal Nature.

    The team studied DNA samples from four different parts of the world and concluded that gen ...

  • DNA Profiling: Its Uses in Court

    Stronger evidence in courtrooms—it’s what every attorney, defendant, and plaintiff dreams of. Beginning in the last 1980s, this is exactly what began to surface through DNA profiling.



    In addition to the one-of-a-kind pattern engraved on our fingers, each of us possesses a unique identifier that is built within our bodies. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic blueprint that determines our biological characteristics. DNA is a long molecule located in almost every cell in the human body. When we are conceived, we inherit half of our DNA from our mother and half from our fat ...

    US-India research team completes analysis of X chromosome
    By intensely and systematically comparing the human X chromosome to genetic information from chimpanzees, rats and mice, a team of scientists from the United States and India has uncovered dozens of new genes, many of which are located in regions of the chromosome already tied to disease... click link for more info.

    Chromosome regions containing genes related to alcohol addiction affect drinking behavior in smokers, according to a study published in the December issue of the journal Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research.


    X-Chromosome has the big story!!
    The human genome is said by some to be the "book of life," and the X-chromosome a large part of the the plot. A team of genome researchers have described the nature of this mysterious "chapter" in the DNA story.


    Deletion on chromosome 11q may guide decision to use chemotherapy for neuroblastoma
    When genes are deleted on a particular section of chromosome 11, the result is an aggressive form of the childhood cancer neuroblastoma. A new study suggests that detecting this genetic deletion during the initial evaluation of children with neuroblastoma may indicate to physicians that they should recommend a more aggressive regimen of chemotherapy to fight the cancer.


    The Chromosome 7 Annotation Project
    The Chromosome 7 database is a community-curated project which contains the most up to date collation of sequence, gene, and other annotations from all databases (eg. Celera published, NCBI, Ensembl, RIKEN, UCSC) as well as unpublished data.

  • Aggressive Behaviour Seems To Be Triggered By Early Age Diet

    The fact that diet directly affects behaviour is no news, on the contrary, this reality has been perceived a very long time ago, as the old saying "a man is what he eats" proves.

    Studies have been performed to ascertain the degree in which this happens. A study of the scientists and researchers from the University of Southern California shows that a lack vitamin B, zinc, iron from the diet during the first years of life seems to influence behaviour later on.

    Malnutrition in early ages, shows the study, predisposes to neurocognitive defi ...

  • Do you have Eczema or Dermatitis?
    Copyright 2005 Michael Brooks

    Although many people believe that eczema and dermatitis are separate conditions, they are actually one and the same. The most common form of this skin condition is atopic eczema. Depending on what study you read, there are between 18 and 34 million people that exhibit symptoms of eczema. Atopic eczema is often genetic and can be associated with a family history of environmental sensitivities and allergic conditions like asthma or hay fever.

    What are the symptoms?

    One of the most common symptoms associated with eczema is extreme itchiness. Spea ...
