Spontaneous Pregnancy Achieved Following Cryopreservation And Transplant Of Ovarian Tissue
Jul 06, 2012
Although the first successful preservation of fertility from the freezing, thawing and grafting of ovarian tissue was reported eight years ago,(1) the technique has remained experimental and confined to a few specialist centres... Read More

Halting The Spread Of Cancer By Following The Genomic Pathways
Jul 06, 2012
As the Genetics Society of America's Model Organism to Human Biology (MOHB): Cancer Genetics Meeting in Washington, D.C. drew to a close, it was clear that the mantra for drug discovery to treat cancers in the post-genomic era is pathways. Pathways are ordered series of actions that occur as cells move from one state, through a series of intermediate states, to a final action... Read More

Unresponsive Aplastic Anemia Patients May Benefit From Eltrombopag
Jul 06, 2012
Eltrombopag, a drug that was designed to stimulate production of platelets from the bone marrow and thereby improve blood clotting, can raise blood cell levels in some people with severe aplastic anemia who have failed all standard therapies. About one-third of aplastic anemia cases do not respond to standard therapy, a combination of immune-suppressing drugs... Read More

'Oncometabolite' Linked To Onset Of Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Jul 06, 2012
A team of international scientists led by principal investigator Dr. Tak Mak at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, University Health Network, has identified a causative link between the product of a mutated metabolic enzyme and the onset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), one of the most common types of leukemia in adults...

Researchers Have Discovered A New Gene Target For Leukemia Therapy
Jul 06, 2012
These findings, slated for the July 26, 2012 print issue of Blood, the journal of the American Society of Hematology, could lead to cellular targets for a patient population that otherwise may not have desirable outcomes and could potentially stop the onset of leukemia before it begins... Read More
