considered diagnostic markers of the disease.
The researchers achieved this methodical breakthrough by applying an ingenious trick: In their experiments, they coupled the transporter to an important
diagnostic marker called PK11195; it was this complex that first gave the scientists analyzable results.

reliable diagnostic markers and a known genetic disposition that puts some alcoholics at increased risk to develop irreversible cirrhosis,» said Chandrashekhar R. Gandhi, Ph.D., a professor at the University of Cincinnati and the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and leader of the research team.

important diagnostic marker — a big help in pinpointing a disease that's difficult to define.
Mayo Clinic researchers have discovered a series of proteins that could be
diagnostic markers to identify bipolar I disorder.
The company wanted to use it as
a diagnostic marker for disease: If synthetic versions of antibodies could be tagged with aequorin in the lab, then whenever they matched up with an antigen (or surface protein) of a specific pathogen in blood or tissue, the sample would glow.
«If we can have an early
diagnostic marker, we will potentially be able to improve clinical outcome significantly.»
The goal is to identify new disease
diagnostic markers and develop new therapies, according to the company's head of R&D in China, Andreas Tschirky, and chief scientific officer Li Chen.
Disruption in sensory processing was added as
a diagnostic marker for autism spectrum disorders only in the most recent version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM5).
«We now also have a much better understanding of how TSPO recognizes and binds to
diagnostic markers and drugs,» explains Markus Zweckstetter, head of research groups at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry, and at the Center for Nanoscale Microscopy and Molecular Physiology of the Brain (CNMPB) at the University Medical Center of Göttingen (UMG).
This protein also serves as a docking site for
diagnostic markers and different drugs, such as Valium.
Discovery improves understanding of the cause of allergic asthma and may serve as an early
diagnostic marker.
A type of antifungal antibody, called ASCA, is widely used as
a diagnostic marker since it is highly elevated in the blood of patients with several chronic diseases including Crohn's.
Gata5 a potential
diagnostic marker for congenital heart disease The finding also suggests that gata5 could be a potential new diagnostic marker for congenital heart defects, as the researchers demonstrated that gata5 regulates the expression of a gene known as nkx2.5 which, when mutated in humans, causes human congenital heart defects and disease.
pH Alkalizer PM PROTM is specifically formulated with pH 7.5 TM to help maintain healthy pH levels; FruiteX - B ® Calcium Fructoborate helps to support healthy levels of C - Reactive Proteins (CRP),
a diagnostic marker associated with inflammatory conditions; and SpectraTM Total ORACFN which may help to target the five major types of free radicals that studies suggest may be associated with unhealthy aging and chronic conditions.
