A team of researchers at the University of California, Riverside, under the leadership of Maurizio Pellecchia, a professor of biomedical sciences at UCR’s School of Medicine, unearthed a path through which the chemotherapeutic medicine paclitaxel can hit at cancer cells on the move which cause metastases. They designed a chemical compound called as 123B9 which target ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2), an oncogene. They fastened paclitaxel on the surface of 123B9 to hit at EphA2 which is responsible for cancer metastases by enabling cancer cells to enter circulation from the primary tumor site. The study findings are published in ACS Chemical Biology. Pellecchia said, “But the exact mechanism by which 123B9 binds to its target remained elusive, which hampered the design of even more potent and effective agents.” A more potent and effective chemical agent to target EphA2 was then developed to tackle this issue and then, the exact combined structure ...

Hypertension or high blood pressure (>120/80 mmHg) is considered as the major cause of death throughout the world. Hypertension leads to several ailments such as stroke, heart attack, coronary heart disease, etc. Hence there is a global need for blood pressure monitor device, especially among the elders, in order to keep track of their health condition. At present, many novel technologies are available where the blood pressure monitor devices can be connected to the smartphones and computers via Bluetooth to find the BP level independently. The latest reports by Allied Market Research has predicted that the global blood pressure monitor device market would reach $2,926 million by 2022, with an annual growth rate of 5.7%. The Asia-Pacific region would be showing the highest blood pressure monitor supplier rate of 7.1% during the year 2014 to 2022. A right blood pressure monitor should measure BP in the upper arm, with the appropriately ...
Patient monitors are used in intensive care units to view the patient’s physiological health condition in real time for an easier decision-making and qualitative care by the doctors. A patient monitor consists of a sensor, processing component and a visual display. Additionally, an alarm is also attached to alert the staff. The sensor detects the physiological level of the patient vitals. The processing component converts the sensor signals to the format which can be displayed via LED, LCD or CRT screen. The major vital parameters such as respiratory rate, cardiac rate, hemodynamic rate, blood glucose, body temperature, oxygen saturation, intracranial pressure etc. can be viewed as a waveform or numerical formats through the patient monitor. Buying the product from a right patient monitor supplier is mandatory in order to avoid the occurrence of clutters due to complicated data integration on monitor display, usability and hardware issues and consistency violation. Our ...
Infections are getting increased day by day in number. Scientists are having a tough time in finding the quickest cost-effective way to detect the pathogen. A research team from UC Santa Barbara published an article named ‘Smartphone-based pathogen diagnosis in urinary sepsis patients’ in EbioMedicine journal. A rapid diagnosis of the most commonly prevalent urinary tract infection is possible using smartphone app and mobile camera, where the chemical reaction is measured followed by diagnosis within an hour. Hence, faster and cost-effective recovery is very much possible. Professor Michael Mahan, the lead author of the study, said “This simple test for urinary tract infections can be conducted in a fraction of the time and cost of clinical diagnostics — one hour versus 18 to 28 hours. We believe that this lab test holds the exciting potential to bring state-of-the-art diagnostics within easy reach of non-expert users.” This rapid test can detect ...
Vascular neurosurgery sees a new light in the form of the Leica Microsystem’s GLOW800 augmented reality surgical fluorescence system which recently received approval from the FDA. This new system is able to create a simultaneous vision of the surgical field in its natural colors along with flow in the vessels in real-time. It gives complete depth view and is devoid of any misalignments among the two pictures. Surgeons no longer need to look at two different microscopic images and memorize one image to look at another, they can get access to a combined natural image of the anatomy of the parts being operated upon, with the help of the Aveo digital augmented reality microscope from Leica. “For the past decade Leica Microsystems has been pioneering new fluorescence imaging technologies in partnership with surgeons to advance surgical practices,” said Markus Lusser, President of Leica Microsystems, in a statement. “GLOW800 and future ...
