Science: Discovery Expected to Significantly Change Biomedical Research

( Source: COMPAMED.de )

[29/12/2011] In a major step that could revolutionize biomedical research, scientists have discovered a way to keep normal cells as well as tumour cells taken from an individual cancer patient alive in the laboratory — which previously had not been possible. Normal cells usually die in the lab after dividing only a few times, and many common cancers will not grow, unaltered, outside of the body. Science: Discovery Expected to Significantly Change Biomedical Research - read more

[15/12/2011] So called dendrimers offers a new way to treat age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. A collaborative study among investigators at Wayne State University, the Mayo Clinic and Johns Hopkins Medicine shows that steroids attached to the dendrimers targeted the damage-causing cells leaving the rest of the eye unaffected and preserving vision. Macular Degeneration and Retinitis Pigmentosa: Nanoparticles Help to Deliver Steroids to Retina - read more
