A gene therapy developed by University of Florida scientists restored useful vision to most patients with rare condition Leber congenital amaurosis type I (LCA1) in a small trial. Patients who received the highest dose of the gene therapy saw up to a 10,000-fold improvement in their light sensitivity, were able to read more lines on an eye chart, and improved in their ability to navigate a standardised maze.

Since their invention in the 1920s, jungle gyms and monkey bars have become both fixtures of playgrounds and symbols of childhood injury that anxious caretakers want removed. Anthropologists mark 100 years of the iconic playground equipment by arguing that risky play exercises a biological need passed on from apes and early humans for children to independently test and expand their physical and cognitive abilities in a context in which injury is possible but avoidable.

It's a dogma taught in every introductory biology class: Proteins are composed of combinations of 20 different amino acids, arranged into diverse sequences like words. But researchers trying to engineer biologic molecules with new functions have long felt limited by those 20 basic building blocks and strived to develop ways of putting new building blocks -- called non-canonical amino acids -- into their proteins.

The team first looked at variation in data from genetic sequencing of 106,973 post-menopausal female participants in the UK Biobank study. Researchers focused on rare types of genetic changes which cause a loss of the protein, and investigated their effect on the timing of menopause. The genetic changes studied are all rare in the population, however their influence on menopause is five times greater than the impact of any previously identified common genetic variant.

By John W.M. Claud — Last week, FDA revised one of its two guidances relating to nitrosamines, Control of Nitrosamine Impurities in Human Drugs. Nitrosamines are impurities that can form during drug manufacturing and are considered potentially potent carcinogens. One specific kind of nitrosamines called N-nitrosamine drug substance-related impurities, or NDSRIs, are especially vexing to FDA and to industry because they mimic the structure of the specific active pharmaceutical ingredients (API),

Newborns who had an atypical pattern of metabolites were more than 14 times as likely to die of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), compared to infants who had more typical metabolic patterns, according to a new study. Metabolites are molecules produced by the body's various chemical reactions. Researchers found that infants who died of SIDS had a specific pattern of metabolites compared to infants who lived to their first year.
