Humans And Chimps Differ At Level Of Gene Splicing
Researchers are closer to understanding why humans differ so greatly from chimpanzees in the way they look, behave, think and fight off disease, despite having genes that are nearly 99 percent identical. Brain Studies Reveal Mechanisms Of Voluntary Control Of Visual Attenti
Neuroscientists at Duke University have mapped the timing and sequence of neural activations that unfold in the brain when people focus their attention on specific locations in their visual fields. UCLA/VA Research Explains Alzheimer's Link To Diabetes; Shows Protecti
Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is a protein known to play a role in eliminating amyloid peptides that cause destructive plaques and tangles in the brains of Alzheimer's patients. Until now, little has been known about the cellular and molecular regulation of IDE. A Good Game Of Golf -- Mind Over Matter
Ever stood on the tee and as you feel the eyes on the other golfers on you, your heart starts to race, your palms become sweaty, and you worry about making a mess of the shot? If this has happened, you are experiencing performance stress. A new study from the University of Alberta shows the strategies that elite golfers use to manage performance stress effectively. Disrupting Common Parasites'Ability To 'Talk'To Each Other Reduces Inf
One of the most common human parasites, Toxoplasma gondii, uses a hormone lifted from the plant world to decide when to increase its numbers and when to remain dormant, researchers have found. Scientists report that they successfully blocked production of the molecule, known as abscisic acid, with a plant herbicide. Low herbicide doses prevented fatal T. gondii infection in mice. Insight Into Natural Cholesterol Control Suggests Novel Cholesterol-lo
New work reported in the March issue of Cell Metabolism has provided insight into a key mechanism by which cells limit cholesterol synthesis. The finding suggests a novel approach to the development of cholesterol-lowering drugs that may boost the effect of statins, one of the most prescribed cholesterol inhibitors, according to researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Data From Space: Adaptive Array Network Could Improve Access To NASA's
Sophisticated signal processing techniques and simple proof-of-principle antenna arrays built from PVC pipe, aluminum foil and copper wire could revolutionize the way NASA obtains data from its Earth observing satellites. [Funny] A referee has sent himself off in an English amateur league ma
Andy Wain had to abandon the Sunday league match between Peterborough North End and a Royal Mail side in the 63rd minute after throwing down his whistle and marching up to confront North End's keeper. Knee Bone Marrow Lesions May Be Hereditary
Bone marrow lesions in the knee, a cause of pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis, may be hereditary. A study published today in the journal Arthritis Research &Therapy reveals that there is a significant genetic component to the occurrence and severity of bone marrow lesions in the tibia and femur. The study also shows that bone marrow lesions are more common in men and increase with age and weight. Shortness Of Breath Without Chest Pain Can Signify The Presence Of Hig
Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center have found that patients with shortness of breath can have a higher risk of dying from cardiac disease than patients without symptoms, and even than patients with typical cardiac pain.
