“I suggested at the next meeting of the expert council (parliamentary hearings) to hear the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Industry on the formation of a centralized long-term state order for the development and production of domestic analogues of drugs for rare diseases,” Ogul said.

A research group centered around Kobe University Graduate School of Medicine's Professor YAMADA Hideto and Associate Professor TANIMURA Kenji (Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology), and Professor ARASE Hisashi et al. of Osaka University's Research Institute for Microbial Diseases (RIMD) have revealed for the first time in the world the high frequency of a novel autoantibody in women suffering from recurrent pregnancy loss

Research at Queen Mary University of London has found a gene that can naturally suppress the signs of Alzheimer's in human brain cells. Scientists have also developed a new rapid screening system for drugs that can delay or prevent disease.

Look deep inside our cells, and you'll find that each has an identical genome -a complete set of genes that provides the instructions for our cells' form and function.

But if each blueprint is identical, why does an eye cell look and act differently than a skin cell or brain cell? How does a stem cell - the raw material with which our organ and tissue cells are made - know what to become?

For every year a human ages, a dog is said to age seven, but an epigenetics study by researchers from the University of California, San Diego has found that the relationship between the two is not linear.

Three studies showing large DNA deletions and reshuffling heighten safety concerns about heritable genome editing.
