Virginia Tech's System X supercomputer provides super tool for simulation of cell division
Virginia Tech researchers in computer science and biology have used the university's supercomputer, System X, to create models and algorithms that make it possible to simulate the cell cycle — the processes leading to cell division. view more (2007-01-31)
Grape seed extract halts cell cycle, checking growth of colorectal tumors in mice
Chemicals found in grape seeds significantly inhibited growth of colorectal tumors in both cell cultures and in mice, according to researchers who have already demonstrated the extract's anti-cancer effects in other tumor types. view more (2006-10-18)
New research suggests a potentially damaging effect of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields
The effect of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF), such as those emitted around high-voltage transmission lines on human health, is controversial. Some studies suggest an association between exposure to ELF-EMF and incidence of leukaemia, although little direct evidence exists that exposure causes damage to biological... view more...

Community-based campaigns increase helmet use by child cyclists
Community based campaigns that also involve free or subsidised helmets are the best way of increasing use of cycle helmets by children. view more (2005-04-15)
Yeast missing sex genes undergo unexpected sexual reproduction
An emerging form of the pathogenic yeast Candida is able to complete a full sexual cycle in a test tube, even though it's missing the genes for reproduction. view more (2009-05-26)
Scientists deconstruct cell division
The last step of the cell cycle is the brief but spectacularly dynamic and complicated mitosis phase, which leads to the duplication of one mother cell into two daughter cells. In mitosis, the chromosomes condense and the nucleus breaks down. view more (2009-02-09)
Sustainable nuclear energy moves a step closer
In future a new generation of nuclear reactors will create energy, while producing virtually no long-lasting nuclear waste, according to research conducted by Wilfred van Rooijen, who will receive his Delft University of Technology PhD degree based on this research subject on Tuesday, 12 December. view more (2006-12-12)
Stem cells not the only way to fix a broken heart
Researchers appear to have a new way to fix a broken heart. They have devised a method to coax heart muscle cells into reentering the cell cycle, allowing the differentiated adult cells to divide and regenerate healthy heart tissue after a heart attack. view more (2009-07-24)
Long term relief from arthritis could evolve from B-cell targeted treatments
Long term relief for arthritis sufferers could be one step closer, thanks to a study of B-cell targeted therapy published today. The study from UCL reveals a major but hitherto poorly acknowledged role for B-cells in the most common and severe form of arthritis to affect younger people. By targeting B-cells, which are part of the body's immune... view more... (2004-06-14)
Combining NSAIDs with chemotherapy, radiation may improve cancer treatment
Until recently, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin and celecoxib (sold as Celebrex), were being hailed as promising cancer prevention drugs. view more (2007-05-18)
Female hormone cycle affects knee joints
New research from the Faculty of Kinesiology at the University of Calgary has found a connection between the laxity of a woman's knee joint and her monthly hormone cycle. view more (2009-04-20)
Periods worsen irritable bowel symptoms
Having a period significantly worsens symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and lowers pain thresholds, finds research in Gut. view more (2002-03-11)
Mapping the neural landscape of hunger
The compelling urge to satisfy one's hunger enlists structures throughout the brain, as might be expected in a process so necessary for survival. view more (2006-08-17)
Protein that controls hair growth also keeps stem cells slumbering
Like fine china and crystal, which tend to be used sparingly, stem cells divide infrequently. It was thought they did so to protect themselves from unnecessary wear and tear. view more (2008-01-25)

Exercise training in ordinary people affects the activity of 500 genes
A new study from Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm shows that hundreds of genes in the thigh muscle are activated in regular cycle training. The study also reveals that great differences in training response may be due to the ability in some people to activate their genes much more forcefully. The study is published May 2 in FASEB Journal. It... view more... (2005-05-03)

Stem-cell research and reproductive cloning laws should be separate (p 209)
The author of a Public Policy article in this week's issue of THE LANCET discusses recent failures of international organisations to establish clear policies with regard to stem-cell research and reproductive cloning. This will have implications for research scientists who will not be clear about the type of research programmes that could be... view more... (2004-07-07)
Chemotherapy resistance: Checkpoint protein provides armor against cancer drugs
Cell cycle checkpoints act like molecular tripwires for damaged cells, forcing them to pause and take stock. view more (2009-08-28)
Hidden sponges determine coral reef's nutrient cycle
Marine organisms hidden in caves, such as sponges, play an extremely important role in the nutrient cycle of coral reefs. view more (2005-09-15)
