(Nanowerk News) Currently, many diseases are diagnosed from blood tests that look for one biomarker (such as a protein or other small molecule) or, at most, a couple of biomarkers of the same type.
Advances in sequencing technologies have accelerated the discovery of the genetic causation of diseases and new cell types. This revolution has also given rise to a new technique known as genetic ...
With the ability to map dozens of biomarkers at once, a new method could transform testing for conditions including heart disease and cancer. With the ability to map dozens of biomarkers at once, a ...
This important study, which tackles the challenge of analyzing genome integrity and instability in unicellular pathogens by introducing a novel single-cell genomics approach, presents compelling ...
Immunoediting (the process by which cancer cells evade the immune system) results when cancer cells that are more immunogenic are selectively eliminated, resulting in a population of less-immunogenic ...
Barcoding technologies that take advantage of the high information content that can be encoded in oligonucleotide sequences have enabled a wide array of applications in biotechnology, particularly ...
