Sometimes the appearance of a birthmark catches a new parent by surprise. Physicians are often quick to offer reassurance that most birthmarks are harmless, and many will shrink or disappear over time. Although that's true, a birthmark can also be the key to early identification of a rare disorder called Sturge-Weber Syndrome.

Small molecules hit it big: New therapeutic approaches against viruses, bacteria, and cancer

sciencedaily.com — “Scientists have developed small molecules that inhibit the internalization of important signaling molecules but also of pathogenic organisms such as the immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and bacteria into cells. These compounds inhibit the function of the cellular scaffold protein clathrin und could thereby serve as a starting point for novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of cancer, viral or bacterial infections, or neurological disorders.View full resource at sciencedaily.com

NIH investigators discover new mechanism that may be important for learning and memory, Date, 2011 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH)

nih.gov — “New findings in mice suggest that the timing when the neurotransmitter acetylcholine is released in the brain?s hippocampus may play a key role in regulating the strength of nerve cell connections, called synapses. Understanding the complex nature of neuronal signaling at synapses could lead to better understanding of learning and memory, and novel treatments for relevant disorders, such as Alzheimer?s disease and schizophrenia.View full resource at nih.gov

Scientists override errant form of genetic signaling for first time: Changing genetic 'red light' to green holds promise for treating disease

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers found a new way to surpass a common mutation that is estimated to cause a third of genetic disorders. The mutation causes the body to create shortened, disabled proteins, which lead to disease like cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy and cancer. The newly discovered approach directs the body to create normal, full-length proteins and could aid the development of treatment strategies to change the course of these, and other debilitating genetic conditions.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
