Researchers discover way to disarm potentially deadly Listeria bacteria

University of Queensland researchers have unlocked a way of fighting Listeria infections, which can cause severe illness in pregnant women and people with compromised immune systems. During the study, researchers discovered a way to block Listeria from making the proteins that allow bacteria to survive and multiply in immune cells. UQ Diamantina Institute’s Professor Antje Blumenthal said […]

Prostate cancer: “liquid biopsies”

Prostate cancer: “liquid biopsies” allow non-invasive diagnosis of metastatic cancers: In future, newly identified biomarkers could be used alongside imaging techniques for the non-invasive diagnosis of patients with advanced prostate cancer. A research team from the Medical University of Vienna and the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute Applied Diagnostics developed epigenetic biomarkers for the detection of circulating […]

Multiple Sclerosis: New MRI technique could improve diagnosis and treatment

It is important that multiple sclerosis (MS) is diagnosed and treated as early as possible in order to delay progression of the disease. The technique of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a key role in this process. In the search for ever better methods, a new MRI technique has been used at MedUni Vienna as […]
