| Researchers identify how body clock affects inflammation Posted: 10 Nov 2013 05:13 AM PST UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers report that disrupting the light-dark cycle of mice increased their susceptibility to inflammatory disease, indicating that the production of a key immune cell is controlled by the body’s circadian clock. |
| Did Inefficient Cellular Machinery Evolve to Fight Viruses and Jumping Genes? Posted: 10 Nov 2013 05:09 AM PST It might seem obvious that humans are elegant and sophisticated beings in comparison to lowly bacteria. But when it comes to genes, a UC San Francisco scientist wants to turn conventional wisdom about human and bacterial evolution on its head. |
| New Therapeutic Target Identified for ALS and Frontotemporal Degeneration Posted: 10 Nov 2013 04:36 AM PST A team of scientists led by researchers from the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research have identified a novel therapeutic approach for the most frequent genetic cause of ALS, a disorder of the regions of the brain and spinal cord that control voluntary muscle movement, and frontal temporal degeneration, the second most frequent dementia. |
