Thus, creating sophisticated models of genetic disorders, studying disease pathogenesis, and testing the efficacy of therapeutic strategies has become increasingly attainable. ...
By analyzing the changes of lipid biomarkers throughout the disease process and their interactions with other biomolecules, we can grasp the position of lipid metabolism disorders in the development of diseases as a whole and identify the possible pathogenesis. Identification of lipid indicators for disease diagnosis Lipidomics is used to ...
Thus, creating sophisticated models of genetic disorders, studying disease pathogenesis, and testing the efficacy of therapeutic strategies has become increasingly attainable. ...
This information can lead to a better understanding of disease mechanisms and help identify novel therapeutic targets. By comparing healthy and diseased tissues, researchers can pinpoint differentially expressed genes and potential therapeutic targets specific to certain cell types or disease states. ...
Understanding animal behavior: Animal cognitive behavioral tests help researchers gain insight into how animals think, learn, and solve problems. By conducting cognitive behavioral tests, scientists can better understand the cognitive abilities of different animal species and how they compare to humans. 2. ...
The ability to influence the differentiation of iPSCs, combined with the fact they can be generated from patients’ own cells, has opened intriguing possibilities for patient-specific drug testing, disease modeling, and therapeutic transplantation. In the pursuit of harnessing the potential of iPSCs, iPSC differentiation kits have emerged as critical tools. ...
Cell and gene therapies for various rare diseases are currently undergoing clinical trials worldwide. The rapid development in this field has led to an increase in regulatory scrutiny and product characterization requirements, as well as a bottleneck in viral vector supply. ...
This knowledge enhances our understanding of disease mechanisms and aids in the discovery of new therapeutic targets. By comparing healthy and diseased tissues, researchers can pinpoint differentially expressed genes specific to certain cell types or disease states. ...
These tests are highly sensitive and can detect even small amounts of enzymes, which can be indicative of a disease or condition. ...
A few simple steps that every man can start to take this month include: Understanding what local health resources are available to you Learning about your risk factors for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and other men’s diseases, and any relevant prevention steps Meeting with health professionals regularly to assess your health and undergo recommended ...
As September and Blood Cancer Awareness Month wrap up, we want to reflect on a memorable conversation with Karen Thomas, a woman who received clonoSEQ® testing, and her physician, Dr. Hazma Hashmi, a hematologist-oncologist from the Medical University of South Carolina. At Adaptive, we know our diagnostic tests provide key information that help ...
While the world continues to endure loss and hardship due to the outbreak of COVID-19, caused by a novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), researchers are scrambling to provide test kits that are accurate, fast, sensitive, and widely available, especially as symptoms vary broadly and may not appear for days if at all. To this end, several diagnostic ...
ACCC just launched updates to the MRD Testing Implementation Roadmap, which aims to help multidisciplinary providers successfully integrate MRD testing into the cancer care continuum for patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and multiple myeloma, complementing the Roadmap for patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) which launched ...
One of the things his lab had been working on before I joined was a specific disease called cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM). They were leading the way in understanding the molecular mechanisms of that disease. We got to the point where we were confident enough in a potential mechanism—the activation of the protein RhoA—that we built an animal ...
May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month. With cases up 45% in just a few years, and now approaching 500K annually in 2022, it is more important than ever to educate your patients about Lyme. If your patients have been exposed to ticks, or are experiencing any of the common symptoms of Lyme disease, consider having them tested with IGeneX, the leader ...

The lovely and talented former star of hit TV show The Bachelor is partnering with IGeneX to raise awareness for Lyme disease. The partnership arose organically, following Kelley’s Lyme disease diagnoses through IGeneX testing in 2021. The two have joined forces leading up to Lyme Awareness Month to bring attention to a critical second ...

On February 29 (or the last day of February) we celebrate World Rare Disease Day to raise awareness about these diseases, aiming to improve access to diagnosis, treatment and medical care. What are these diseases? Rare diseases are those that occur infrequently in the general population. ...
Shortly after, she was diagnosed with Scleritis¹, a serious eye disease that is often associated with an underlying autoimmune disorder. ...
The effectiveness of kinases as targets for other diseases, including neurological disorders, inflammation and metabolic diseases, is also being tested. ...
Researchers have proven a device using ultraviolet light technology can neutralize the coronavirus and other infectious diseases on the soles of shoes by more than 99.5 percent, according to a new study. “The device deactivated coronavirus markers by over 99.5 percent versus the control across three separate tests,” according to the report as ...
