| DNA nanorobot triggers targeted therapeutic responses Posted: 16 Feb 2012 11:42 AM PST A new robotic device made from DNA could potentially seek out specific cell targets and deliver important molecular instructions, such as telling cancer cells to self-destruct. Inspired by the mechanics of the body's own immune system, the technology represents a major breakthrough in the field of nanobiotechnology and might one day be used to program immune responses to treat various diseases.  |
| Secret of sperm quality control revealed Posted: 16 Feb 2012 10:34 AM PST Researchers have discovered how the "guardian of the genome'' oversees quality control in the production of sperm -- and perhaps in many other cells as well.  |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2012 06:50 AM PST The ability to change vocal sounds and develop an accent is potentially far more widespread in mammals than previously believed, according to new research on goats.  |
| New mouse reference library should speed gene discoveries Posted: 16 Feb 2012 06:46 AM PST Genetic information provided by a large group of specially-designed mice could pave the way to faster human health discoveries and transform the ways people battle and prevent disease.  |
