Genetic 'Roadmap' Charts Links Between Drugs And Human Disease
A research team led by scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard developed a new kind of genetic "roadmap"that can connect human diseases with potential drugs to treat them, as well as predict how new drugs work in human cells. Called the "Connectivity Map,"the tool and its uses are described in the September 29 issue of Science and in separate publications in the September 28 immediate early edition of Cancer Cell. Long-term Etanercept Treatment Reduces Psoriasis Severity Without Incr

If activated, the "radiation belt remediation"(RBR) system could significantly alter the upper atmosphere, seriously disrupting high frequency (HF) radio wave transmissions and GPS navigation around the world. New Therapeutic Target Identified In Inherited Brain Tumor Disorder
Researchers studying a mouse model of neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), a genetic condition that causes childhood brain tumors, have found their second new drug target in a year, a protein called methionine aminopeptidase-2 (MetAP2). An established drug, fumagillin, is already known to suppress the activity of MetAP2. [Ironic] Professional beggars prowling about the streets of Moroccan c
