A blessed child cured from AIDS

Recently researcher reported for the first time that a documented case of a child being cured from HIV. Dr. Deborah Persaud, of Johns Hopkins University and an amfAR grantee, detailed the case of a two-year-old child in Mississippi Hospital. Her mother was a HIV positive but she didn’t know that and never took any medication for it. The case revealed when she get to the hospital before the birth of her child. That’s why, the infant was in a higher risk of infection. There is a protocol for Read more [...]

More than two strands

DNA has an iconic structure constructed by two strands. This structure is most abundant in anywhere and studied most. But recent approaches say that, researchers are getting interested in DNAs which have more than two strands. Like, four stranded package of DNA called G-quadruplexes. This have been researched for a long time and created synthetically in the lab and had no evidence that, they could form naturally. But now, they have been identified in human cancer cells. Cancer cells divide very Read more [...]

Lake-drilling team discovers life under the ice

Beyond the 48-hour journey from the South Pole meandering, the west coast of the United States, John Priscu has suffered from more than his fair share of just jet lag. However, I will not be able to mask the excitement in his voice tired. After work, which is to find the first life of the lake trapped under the ice of the frozen continent of Antarctica he and his team in the field, intense week. He says, "life is definitely Whillans harbor lake." "The Antarctic ice sheet of large marshland Read more [...]

Can we do this ?

 It’s the show time for biological science. We are going through an age, when biological science has the greatest investments for money, merit and media coverage. Our country has also made a powerful impact in this field with the success of JUTE GENOME PROJECT. It is also a matter of pride that many of our Scientists have gone beyond the national boundary, such as Dr. Abed Chaudhury, Dr. Maksudul Alam and many graduates are working in various renowned research organizations both in our country Read more [...]

First photo of DNA double helix published

DNA is the ultimate code of life. In 1953 Watson and Cric discovered the double helix structure of DNA using various theoretical assumptions. As DNA is the fundamental genetic materials in many organisms, to know its structure was necessary for understanding its interactions with different elements. Recent years we cracked the sequence code of DNA, modified it for our various purposes. But, no one ever saw it actually. Recently Enzo Di Fabrizio at the University of Geona in Italy revealed a true Read more [...]

Self healing of heart may reveal

Heart attack is perilous because it caused damage to heart cells. And it is unfortunate that heart cells lose their ability to regenerate soon after we born. So, in a heart attack scar tissue replaces the dead tissue not new muscles. Recently, Mauro Giacca of International Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology has identified MicroRNAs that stimulate adult heart cells to divide and multiply. MicroRNAs are short RNA sequences that turn genes on or off. To detect which were involved Read more [...]

Team solves mystery associated with DNA repair

Every time a human or bacterial cell divides it first must copy its DNA. Specialized proteins unzip the   intertwined DNA strands while others follow and build new strands, using the originals as templates. Whenever these proteins encounter a break – and there are many – they stop and retreat, allowing a new cast of molecular players to enter the scene. Scientists have long sought to understand how one of these players, a repair protein known as RecA in bacterial cells, helps broken DNA Read more [...]

Bioweapon… (The weapons of mass destruction)

When we talk about weapon the first thing that comes to our mind is, War. Well it is actually about war. When one side creates some new strategy the other side acts equally to counter attack. That’s how it has been since the beginning of the civilization. That’s pretty much the simple definition of destruction. But this destruction went into the next level when the WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction) was introduced. There are 4 types in the WMD’s Biological Chemical Nuclear Radiological Among Read more [...]

Radiation from Telecommunication Towers and its Impact on Human Health

Do you know that the cell phone towers coming up in your area could cause a health hazard? Well there are many who do not know about this and in fact take pride out of the fact that technology has landed near their door step. While all of us have had our share of fun with mobile technology, it is now time to introspect and study the problems that one could face because of cell phone towers being installed close to where people reside. Ii is true that Cell phone technology has revolutionized the telecommunication Read more [...]
