These are really exciting times in the field of Parkinson's disease research. Although the etiology of sporadic disease still remains a mystery, many of the proteins associated with hereditary disease ...

The human body is a complex and interconnected system, where alterations caused by one disease can promote the onset of others. This tendency for certain diseases to occur together, beyond what would ...

Using genomic and transcriptional data has greatly improved the understanding of multiple aspects of human physiology. A new paper in PNAS reports on molecular-level associations of co-occurring ...

The Southern blot, which detects specific DNA sequences, was one of the first molecular diagnostic methods to be widely adopted. 2 This type of probe-based assay uses a single-stranded oligonucleotide ...

Even for most of modern medicine, the beginning of a disease is synonymous with symptoms. A patient forgets names. Blood sugar rises. Muscles weaken. Only then does diagnosis begin. At the molecular ...

Investigations of the genetic basis of coronary artery disease have led to advances in mechanistic insights, therapeutics, prevention, and risk prediction. Indeed, most contemporary medicines for ...
