Non-invasive method devised to sequence DNA of human eggs : Nature News & Comment
http://www.nature.com/news/non-invasive-method-devised-to-sequence-dna-of-human-eggs-1.14412
International weekly journal of science. Non-invasive method devised to sequence DNA of human eggs. The procedure could aid assisted reproduction. Gilles Podevins/Science Photo Library/Corbis. Scientists have begun a clinical trial to test whether a new DNA-sequencing technique for human egg cells can improve in vitro fertilization success rates. Researchers have for the first time determined the genome sequence of human egg cells without destroying them. The feat, reported today in Cell. The team collec...

US regulators try to tame 'wild west' of DNA testing : Nature News & Comment
http://www.nature.com/news/us-regulators-try-to-tame-wild-west-of-dna-testing-1.16962
International weekly journal of science. US regulators try to tame 'wild west' of DNA testing. Experts, regulators mull how to foster technologies without posing undue risk to patients. Advances in genetic sequencing make myriad diagnostic tests possible. There are two main aspects that need to be considered, says Joshua Sharfstein, former deputy commissioner of the FDA: Is the sequence what the machine says it is and what does it mean." For a doctor to recommend a therapy on the basis of test result...

Rats free each other from cages : Nature News & Comment
http://www.nature.com/news/rats-free-each-other-from-cages-1.9603
International weekly journal of science. Rats free each other from cages. Altruistic acts raise questions about whether the rodents feel empathy. Rats, often anthropomorphized as greedy and selfish, may not be the callous, cartoon villains they are sometimes made out to be. A paper published today in Science. Demonstrates that the rodents will liberate trapped cage-mates even when they have nothing to gain. When chocolate was introduced to the mix, there was no difference in the time taken to free the tr...

Salt linked to autoimmune diseases : Nature News & Comment
http://www.nature.com/news/salt-linked-to-autoimmune-diseases-1.12555
International weekly journal of science. Salt linked to autoimmune diseases. Nanowires show sodium chloride may cause harmful T-cell growth. Salt may play a role in the overproduction of immune-system cells that attack an organism's own tissues. The incidence of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes, has spiked in developed countries in recent decades. In three studies published today in Nature. Researchers describe the molecular pathways that can lead to autoimmune disease.
