Football Players; In this study Tim Tyrrell talks about football like a man who loved every minute of his six years in the NFL. He relishes stories of the devastating hits he leveled. He’s proud of the way he could get knocked out; shake it off and get right back into the game. He loved…
The researchers developed a method in which the proteins are attached at one end to a glass surface and carry a tag at the other end that binds to tiny magnetic beads and the assembly is then subjected to an external magnetic field. Extension of the protein induced by the field results in the vertical…
The researches find that the molecules produced by the breakdown of fat, help the intestine to maintain a large pool of adult stem cells; which are crucial for keeping the intestinal lining healthy. The researchers also found that intestinal stem cells produce unusually high levels of ketone bodies even in the absence of a high-fat diet. These…
The study focuses on the pre-mRNA splicing process where regions in the pre-mRNA that do not encode proteins are removed by the spliceosome, a huge protein-RNA complex. Remaining sections of the RNA transcript, called exons, are then stuck back together. Pre-mRNA splicing is one of several essential steps that convert pre-mRNAs into mature mRNA (messenger…
Millions of people worldwide suffer from traumatic brain injury each year, and in some severe cases; injured individuals arrive at the hospital in a coma. New research led by investigators at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) sheds light on which connections between brain regions may be severed in such cases. The findings are publish in the…
While the vast majority of the 1.8 billion people infected with the tuberculosis bacterium never experience active disease, an estimated 5 to 15% do develop full-blown infections roughly half of them within 18 months of exposure. It’s a question that has continue to mystify microbiologists, infectious disease specialists and public health experts on the forefront…
In this study the use of artificial intelligence in medicine is generating great excitement and hope for treatment advances. AI generally refers to computers’ ability to mimic human intelligence and to learn. For example, by using machine learning, scientists are working to develop algorithms that will help them make decisions about cancer treatment. They hope that computers will be…
According to the study it discussing about a parasite, largely thought to be asexual; has been showing to reproduce sexually after scientists uncover clues hidding in its genomic code. Trypanosoma cruzi is the parasite responsible for Chagas Disease, found in Latin America. Around eight million people are currently infected by the disease, which can cause…
