The discovery from researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine reveals how bacteria use the CRISPR-Cas system to store viral DNA, enhancing their immunity against future infections, and potentially paving the way for new phage-based therapies
US researchers discovered in a study in mice that augmented drug eliminates cancer cells without causing toxicity.
A new study highlights how scientists have successfully cultivated human muscle stem cells capable of renewing themselves and repairing muscle tissue damage in mice, findings that could lead to therapeutics to treat muscular dystrophy disorder.
Scientists have created what they believe is the first rat model of Down’s syndrome. The animal model shares features with human Down’s syndrome, which will allow for efficient testing of new therapies.
