Spell To Turn A Man On

Genetic Diagnosis: Patentability of genes

A U.S. federal judge recently struck down patents both BRCA1 and BRCA2 (Breast Cancer 1 and 2). These two genes are tumor suppressor genes, some mutations have been identified as the cause of breast and ovarian cancer.

This decision calls into question the exclusive rights to market the Myriad BRACAnalysis test: This test can detect cancer, hereditary breast and ovarian cancer hereditary with a confidence rating of 82% in the first case and 44 % in the second, at a cost of about $ 2000.

The reason given is that the mutated gene, so that-which is based on the test, is not fundamentally different from natural gene, and therefore can not be patented.

However, although 20% of the human genome is patented at the moment, this ruling should be inconsequential, because probably overturned on appeal.

radioactive gold nanoparticles against the prostate cancer melanocortin

Study: Dr. Kattesh Katti, Missouri (U.S.)
Journal of Nanomedicine

This study shows the effect of radioactive gold nanoparticles injected IV on human tumors implanted into mice. The nanoparticles were wrapped in glycoproteins of gum arabic, and selectively captured by the tumor cells.
The result is an average reduction in tumor volume by 82% in 2 weeks, and collateral damage on blood cells in particular, zero.

The mechanism of selectivity vis-à-vis the tumor is not detailed in my source, and not having access to the study, I do not understand. All information on this subject interests me.

: effect cardiovascular therapeutics?

Study: Modena (Italy)
Journal: Circulation (Cardiovasulaire) (U.S.)

The melanocortin (or rather, because there are several forms) is a peptide hormone, derived from the cleavage central (hypothalamus) of proopiomelanocortin (POMC), under the action of leptin. His action, linked to 5 different receivers is twofold: at the central level, it inhibits food intake and peripheral level, it stimulates melanin synthesis by cutaneous melanocytes.

Italian researchers have just proven its significance in ischemic diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke apoplectic. The altered production of this hormone is indeed a cause inflammatory aspects of cerebral ischemia or infarction associated with these diseases.
Thus, an intervention, even hours after the accident could take place and allow functional recovery, at least in part, the affected organ.

Much research is underway in the world on the role and employment potential of melanocortin in therapy. No molecule is currently using this pharmacological means.
