Protein Signature Associated with Outcome in Metastatic Melanoma

Clinical results in metastatic melanoma with the antibodies nivolumab and pembrolizumab to anti– programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) have led to clinically and statistically significant improvements in progression-free and overall survival compared to alternative first- and second-line therapies.

Prognostic Biomarker Found for Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial cancer (EC) is a major health concern due to its rising incidence. Whilst early stage disease is generally cured by surgery, advanced EC has a poor prognosis with limited treatment options, and altered energy metabolism is a hallmark of malignancy. More...

Accurate Tool Developed to Track New HIV Infections

An effort is underway to develop a more accurate way to gauge the incidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections in large populations, which will improve scientific studies and prevention strategies worldwide. More...

Molecular Automation Is Changing Clinical Laboratories

Most mid-career laboratory medicine professionals find it hard not to recall the days when DNA had to be extracted manually and polyacrylamide gels were mixed by hand without also reflecting on how fast things have changed. More...

Images Evaluated for CSF Electrophoresis of IgG Bands

Multiple sclerosis (MS) involves inflammatory lesions of white matter in the central nervous system (CNS) that spread over time. In MS immune reactions lead to intrathecal synthesis of specific immunoglobulins (IgGs) that can be detected in biological fluid samples both quantitatively and qualitatively by isoelectric focusing of supplementary oligoclonal IgG bands.

Urine Test Developed for Accurate TB Detection

An accurate screening test for active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is urgently needed for patients who are not co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Worldwide, TB is one of the most prevalent bacterial infections, with the highest mortality in developing countries. More...

Researchers Decode Toxoplasmosis’ Control of Immune Cells

The infection toxoplasmosis is caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii and is widely spread. It is estimated that 30%-50% of the global human population are carriers. Cats are the parasites' main host, but the infection is also spread among other animals, including humans. More...
