• CT and serum LDH shows promise as survival predictor for some metastatic melanoma patients

  Combining CT imaging findings with baseline serum lactate dehydrogenase levels is showing promise as a way to predict survival in patients with metastatic melanoma being treated with anti-angiogenic therapy. With the hope of predicting patient survival, researchers at the University of Mississippi M more

• U of M researchers develop a molecular 'calcium sponge' to tackle heart failure

  Researchers at the University of Minnesota's Department of Integrative Biology and Physiology and the Lillehei Heart Institute have utilized molecular genetic engineering to optimize heart performance in models of diastolic heart failure by creating an optimized protein that can aid in high-speed re more

• Patient's own immune cells may blunt viral therapy for brain cancer

  Doctors now use cancer-killing viruses to treat some patients with lethal, fast-growing brain tumors. Clinical trials show that these therapeutic viruses are safe but less effective than expected.A new study led by researchers at the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. Jame more

• Superiority of FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent in Minimizing Non-Specific Cellular Interferon Responses
  

  Many viruses, including human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), encode for genes that can modulate or interfere with the ability of cells to mount an effective antiviral response to infection. Transfection of viral genes into cultures of mammalian cells is an important research tool to evaluate the function of viral gene products. We utilized this approach to identify viral genes involved in modulation of interferon (IFN)-mediated cell signaling pathways. more
