Scientists decipher cellular 'roadmap' of disease-related proteins Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Researchers are helping demystify an important class of proteins associated with disease, a discovery that could lead to better treatments for cancer, cystic fibrosis and many other conditions. |
New mouse model reveals a mystery of Duchenne muscular dystrophy Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy often die as young adults from heart and breathing complications. Now, researchers have developed a mouse model that accurately mimics the course of the disease in humans. |
Champion nano-rust for producing solar hydrogen Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Researchers have figured out the "champion" nanostructures able to produce hydrogen in the most environmentally friendly and cheap manner, by simply using daylight. |
Mesoscale ocean eddies impact weather Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Not only large-scale ocean currents impact weather but also relatively small eddies, as a new study reveals. The researchers therefore recommend to account for these eddies in weather prediction models. |
Peering into the protein pathways of a cell Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:29 PM PDT Using highly sensitive fluorescent probes, a team of scientists has captured the never-before-seen structural dynamics of an important protein channel inside the cell's primary power plant -- the mitochondrion. |
How quality control works in our cells Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:28 PM PDT A cellular control mechanism prevents the production of defective proteins in our cells. A team of researchers has now obtained valuable insights into this vital mechanism that could lead to new therapeutic approaches for genetic diseases. |
Sugar makes cancer light-up in MRI scanners Posted: 07 Jul 2013 01:27 PM PDT A new technique for detecting cancer by imaging the consumption of sugar with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been unveiled. The breakthrough could provide a safer and simpler alternative to standard radioactive techniques and enable radiologists to image tumors in greater detail. |
Fit check sets stage for Orion recovery test Posted: 07 Jul 2013 06:52 AM PDT Engineers and technicians at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Langley Research Center in Virginia and Lockheed Martin Space Operations in Denver, Colo., prepared unique hardware that was used in a fit check June 25-28 of equipment that will be used to recover Orion upon splashdown in the Pacific Ocean. The recovery operations are led by the Ground Systems Development and Operations Program at Kennedy. |
