Protein Stops P53 In Its Tracks In Cancer Cells
Overexpression of a protein known as HMGA1 has been associated with many types of cancer in humans. Previous studies have shown that HMGA1 decreases the ability of p53 to inhibit cell death by a process known as apoptosis; inhibition of p53-mediated apoptosis causes tumors to develop in both animals and humans. However, precisely how HMGA1 mediates its pro-tumorigenic effects on p53 have not been clearly established. ePaper
The development of new energy-efficient and high-resolution full-colour displays for portable computing and communications applications, even flexible electronic paper, will rely on finding novel organic molecules that produce colour when a voltage is applied Eye Condition, If Left Untreated In Children, May Result In Permanent
When a child is farsighted or has astigmatism or has both conditions in both eyes, bilateral amblyopia may develop. In contrast to single-eye amblyopia or "lazy eye,"bilateral amblyopia affects both eyes and is less common. In a new article, researchers report that this condition can be successfully treated with corrective lenses, particularly when diagnosed and treated early. Left untreated, bilateral amblyopia may result in permanent visual disability. Computers To Be Used To Find Blueprint For New Influenza Drug
Researchers at the University of Bath have won a £261,000 grant to use the latest software to produce a blueprint of a designer drug that could stop influenza and some other diseases from replicating in humans. [Funny] A referee has sent himself off in an English amateur league ma

Biologists have discovered a new species of peccary, a member of the pig family, in the basin of the Rio Aripuanãin the south-eastern Amazon region. The divergence time from the already known peccary species (the time which has passed since the evolutionary division) has been set at one to 1.2 million years. Academy Award Winners
