New mothers in Perth are teaming up with researchers at The Kids Research Institute Australia in a global bid to develop the first vaccine to prevent Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) disease.
Researchers will extend a unique community-led project to end rheumatic heart disease in Aboriginal communities, thanks to nearly half a million dollars in funding from Bupa.
Wangle Technologies, with the support of The Kids, has today launched Wangle Family Insites, a unique new app to help parents keep their family safe online
Andrew Whitehouse has been listed in the WA Business News 40 under 40 awards recognising accomplished and dynamic young leaders in Western Australia.
Hearing your child’s first word is a precious moment for any parent but while most children begin to talk within 12 to 24 months of age, some take much longer.
A study of the Western Australian justice system has identified that 85% of staff say responding to the needs of people with FASD is an issue in their work.
In addition to providing pathogen-specific immunity, vaccines can also confer nonspecific effects (NSEs) on mortality and morbidity unrelated to the targeted disease. Immunisation with live vaccines, such as the BCG vaccine, has generally been associated with significantly reduced all-cause infant mortality. In contrast, some inactivated vaccines, such as the diphtheria, tetanus, whole-cell pertussis (DTPw) vaccine, have been controversially associated with increased all-cause mortality especially in female infants in high-mortality settings.
T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy with inferior outcome compared with that of B cell ALL. Here, we show that Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) was upregulated in high-risk T-ALL with KMT2A rearrangements (KMT2A-R) or an immature immunophenotype. In KMT2A-R cells, we identified RUNX2 as a direct target of the KMT2A chimeras, where it reciprocally bound the KMT2A promoter, establishing a regulatory feed-forward mechanism.
Implementation of lifelong ART of all HIV-infected women has the potential to improve maternal determinants of protective immunity in the young infant
Our approach to hematopoietic progenitor cells mobilization resulted in highly effective HPC harvest in children and adolescents with high-risk cancers
