A study published in the September issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine remarked that it noticed a huge drawback in the Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging technique and warned doctors who use only PSMA PET for diagnosis to be vigilant for faulty diagnosis. “It is important that nuclear medicine physicians be aware of this pitfall, as the interpretation of PSMA PET scans may have a substantial impact on therapy guidance,” said Christoph Rischpler, MD, in the department of nuclear medicine at the Technical University of Munich in Germany. For detecting prostate cancer staging and metastases in imaging, PSMA proves to be a very efficient target as it is an extremely easy-to-read enzyme, helping better diagnosis and plotting of management protocol. Recent findings, however, show that PSMA elevates in response to some benign tissue as well, duplicating findings of lymph node metastases. This could lead to ...

A new paper published in Medicine suggests that Heat shock proteins CPN10, CPN60, and CPN70 could act as biomarkers for bipolar disorder (BD). Moreover, CPN60 serum levels could act as a biomarker to specify which BD patients have abnormal activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.
The opening of a new Biomedical Blockchain Research Center was announced by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and the Institute for Next Generation Healthcare which aims to solve healthcare and medical science issues with new technologies and data.
Researchers from South Ural State University (SUSU) found that man has been suffering from Hepatitis B since the Bronze Age with the help of viral traces in the genomes of ancient people. To understand how some of the ancient diseases spread and to find out how they might behave in the future, an international collaboration between researchers had been analyzing DNA of the relics of ancient people found in areas from Mongolia to Europe for several years.
Despite the looming crises, Novartis will be shutting down antimicrobial research at its Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research campus in Emeryville, California. There will be a loss of 140 jobs and the current projects will be put up for sale. This company was working on phase 2 clinical trial of LYS228 against complicated urinary tract infections and complicated intra-abdominal infections. The work on anti-dengue drugs and anti-malaria drugs (KAF156 and KAE609) were already in pipeline.
