Developing an antibody to combat age-related muscle atrophy

by Kyushu University HGF nitration disrupts muscle homeostasis as an organism age. The new rat anti-HGF monoclonal antibody the research team developed, called 1H41C10, specially binds to the nitration sites of HGF and blocks nitration. The team hopes that this can eventually lead to therapies that can treat age-related muscle atrophy and impaired muscle regeneration. Credit:...

Researcher’s technology differentiates between Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy

by University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston Scientists have found a way to distinguish between two progressive neurodegenerative diseases, Parkinson’s disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), using a technology developed by a researcher at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth). The discovery was published today in Nature. It is...
