Microbubbles are small bubbles that can be used to deliver oxygen into cells. The study, which was published in the International Journal of Radiation, involved the use of animal models of breast cancer, which were flushed with oxygen using microbubbles.

An experimental saliva-based HIV test shows promise, researchers report.
The new test may be able to detect early evidence of HIV antibodies in saliva as reliably as a blood test, according to the scientists who developed it.

New insights from research on how insulin exits the bloodstream to metabolize glucose in cells could lead to new treatments for insulin resistance, a condition that usually precedes Type 2 diabetes.
In a paper that was published in The Journal of Clinical Investigation, scientists at Vanderbilt University report how they used a new microscopy technique alongside mathematical models to directly measure and characterize the movement of insulin as it traversed blood vessel walls into skeletal muscle cells in live mice.

Using a new technique they call "in-air microfluidics," scientists succeed in printing 3-D structures with living cells. This special technique enable the fast and "in-flight" production of micro building blocks that are viable and can be used for repairing damaged tissue, for example.

Human metabolome has been discovered to be a wealth of medical laboratory biomarkers for diagnosis, therapy and patient monitoring. Because it can provide a dynamic phenotype of the human body, there are many potential clinical laboratory applications that could arise from metabolomics, the study of metabolites.

A form of CRISPR that activates rather than cuts DNA can convert embryonic mouse cells to induced pluripotent stem cells, researchers reported in Cell Stem Cell.
"This paper demonstrates the ability of CRISPR effectors to go beyond turning on a single gene and completely rewire the transcriptional state of the cell," Neville Sanjana, a bioengineer at the New York Genome Institute who did not participate in the study, writes in an email to The Scientist.

The abrupt resignation of the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention comes at a difficult time for the agency, with officials fighting a deadly flu outbreak even as they seek to beat back proposed budget cuts from the White House. The CDC is always on the front lines dealing with public health threats, and it has been working overtime this year to address drug shortages and an unusually active flu season.

Johns Hopkins Medicine via Infection Control Today
In a study of 61 people treated for the bacteria that causes Lyme disease, Johns Hopkins researchers conclude that fatigue, pain, insomnia and depression do indeed persist over long periods of time for some people, despite largely normal physical exams and clinical laboratory testing. "Post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome is a real disorder that causes severe symptoms in the absence of clinically detectable infection," says Dr. John N. Aucott, associate professor of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and director of the Johns Hopkins Lyme Disease Clinical Research Center.

Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center via Lab Manager
Based on a novel approach to drug discovery, researchers at Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center say an agent approved to treat a type of leukemia might also help young people with a much rarer and aggressive form of cancer, Ewing sarcoma. The findings, reported in Oncogene, mean that the drug, clofarabine, soon could be tested in a clinical trial for Ewing sarcoma, a cancer found in bone or soft tissue.

Zika may not be the only virus that can harm a fetus, a new study in mice suggests.
"We found that West Nile virus and Powassan viruses shared with Zika the ability to infect the placenta and cause fetal death," said senior researcher Dr. Jonathan Miner, who's with Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.
