Motor protein discovery in fruit flies may unlock neurodegenerative secrets
Scientists have long known that inherited neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or motor neuron disease, can be traced back to genetic mutations. However, how they cause the diseases remains unanswered.
In today’s issue of the journal Current Biology Professor Andreas Prokop revealed that so-called “motor proteins” can provide key answers in this quest.
The research by the Prokop group focuses on nerve fibers, also called axons. Axons are the delicate biological cables that send messages between the brain and body to control our movements and behavior. Intriguingly, axons need to survive and stay functional for our entire lifetime.
Innovative New Procedure May Change the Future of Some Coronary Artery Bypass Surgeries
Researchers have developed a novel noninvasive coronary artery bypass approach that may offer an alternative to traditional open-heart surgery for select patients with coronary disease. Early experience suggests this technique could reduce surgical trauma and change how some coronary conditions are treated, although broader clinical validation will be needed to define its role in future practice.
Researchers have created a new noninvasive technique for performing a type of artery bypass that may change the future of some coronary surgeries.
Short, intensive workouts can help fight bowel cancer
As many of us embark on an exercise or gym routine for the new year, research reveals that just 10 minutes of intense exercise could help fight cancer.
Short bursts of energetic activity can trigger rapid molecular changes in the bloodstream, shutting down bowel cancer growth and speeding up DNA damage repair, a new study has shown.
Researchers at Newcastle University have found that exercise increases the concentration of several small molecules in the blood—many linked to reducing inflammation, improving blood vessel function, and metabolism.
