Muscular Dystrophy Meets Its Match A new approach effectively patches up a genetic defect in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a disease that has proven recalcitrant to new therapies. http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/07-2003/msg08.html - New Genetic Cause Of Lou Gehrig Disease Identified Scientists have identified a new gene, VEGF, that when mutated results in an increased risk of developing Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig disease. http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/07-2003/msg07.html - Clot Busters A new approach for combating clots shows promise as a means of preventing bleeding in patients who have undergone surgery or for individuals suffering from strokes. http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/07-2003/msg06.html - Genetic Cause For Congenital Heart Defect Found Screening for GATA4 mutations in humans with heart disease may help researchers understand how congenital heart diseases develop, and aid the discovery of therapeutic and preventative interventions. http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/07-2003/msg05.html - New Class Of Angiogenesis Proteins Researchers describe a new class of proteins that not only promotes therapeutic angiogenesis in an entirely new way, but also avoids vascular permeability – a troubling side effect seen with other agents now being tested. http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/07-2003/msg04.html - International Cancer Research Portfolio The International Cancer Research Portfolio, or ICRP, represents a database of information on cancer research awards of the cancer funding organizations that comprise the Common Scientific Outline (CSO) Partners. http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/07-2003/msg03.html -
