Aqueous humor, microRNAs and glaucoma

New findings highlight microRNAs — molecules that regulate gene expression — that are differentially expressed in glaucoma and could be candidate biomarkers or targets for therapy.

New view of the heartbeat

Structural views of the proteins that regulate the heartbeat may help improve existing treatments for cardiac arrhythmias.

Lung diseases share molecular signature

Lung diseases of infancy and aging share a molecular signature, pointing to a potential target for treatment and prevention.
