Anathracycline is a form of chemotherapy that is effective. But it has been shown to damage the hearts of many children. Most children suffering the damage to their heart find their heart walls thinning and when they are diagnosed it's usually much too late to do anything. They use ultrasounds but it's hard to detect until much later after the treatments. There is a new technique, T1 MRI, that is proved to be more effective and safer. Doctors have been able to see heart defects much earlier with this technique. Many people say this is a great advancement.
Scientists have a theory on how to stop brain cancer. They found rabies is able to enter nerve cells. They use the infected nerve cells as a conduit to infect other nerve cells. Scientists are trying to mimic this process with tumor killing nanoparticles to brain tumors. This process has so far worked on mice. If it comes to be successful in humans, doctors will be able to attack tumors directly without harming any of the healthy cells. Hopefully this procedure is successful and helps in the development for a cure for cancer. http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/02/how-stop-brain-cancer-rabies
http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/brain_cell_executioner_identified Researchers have discovered the piece in DNA that may cause certain neurodegenerative diseases. The link in DNA is believed to cause diseases like Alzheimer's, dementia, ALS, and even brain cancer. With this information, they hope to develop treatments and even a cure for these diseases. They can't physically change DNA, but they can treat DNA with enzymes to create chemical reactions to alter the DNA. They have named the DNA cell that causes these diseases parthantos, which is the personification of death in Greek mythology.
Growing up in tough conditions can make wild animals live longer, new research suggests. Scientists from the University of Exeter found that male banded mongooses that lived in poor conditions in their first year had longer lives. "Growing up in a poor or unpredictable environment isn't necessarily bad - it can have advantages," said lead author Dr Harry Marshall, a professor from University of Exeter. The researchers used 14 years of data on wild banded mongooses in Uganda. Rainfall was used as the measure of conditions, as the researchers found that more rainfall means more invertebrate prey for mongooses to eat.
Back in 2013 the Voyager 1 probe that was launched by NASA back in 1977 reached the edge of the solar system. The Voyager 1 is on its way to the next solar system, Oort Cloud. Scientists have recently dated the arrival on the next solar system to be about 130,000 years from now. This is great news for science as a human made product as reached beyond what was ever expected back in 1977. The depths this probe can or will travel is unknown at the time being. Scientists are hoping to make interstellar travel a possibility, taking away the science fiction part of it.

More than 200 new genetic markers linked with male baldness have been identified, according to a new study from the United Kingdom. The findings greatly increase the number of known genetic markers linked with baldness in men; a previous large study identified just eight such markers. The researchers also used this information to predict a man's chances of hair loss. Their research predictions apply more to an entire population of men than just one man in particular. "We are still a long way from making an accurate prediction for an individual's hair-loss pattern. However, these results take us one step closer," study co-author Riccardo Marioni, of the University of Edinburgh's Centre for Genomic and Experimental Medicine, said in a statement. "The findings pave the way for an improved understanding of the genetic causes of hair loss," Marioni said.
Researcher Kate Thomas found out that the cock eyed squid, which is also known as the "strawberry" squid, has mismatched eyes to survive in the "twilight zone." While the larger eye is busy looking upwards looking for shadows, the little one is busy looking downward looking for light.
A research ship is being sent down into the depths of the Pacific Ocean this week. It’s being sent down to see exotic sea animals like a sea toad, which apparently is a “walking fish”. It will go down 3.7 miles beneath the sea’s surface. It will go down tomorrow. The expedition was run through September.
Researchers at Harvard have developed a battery that can run for more than a decade. The battery only loses about one percent of its capacity after 1,000 charges. It is considered a "flow" battery, meaning its energy is kept in external tanks. Ferrocene is the top compound in the battery. Ferrocene was accidentally discovered in 1951 and hasn't had much use until now.

It might be possible to slow the progression of type 1 diabetes. According to a new pilot study. It uses an experimental therapy that focuses on the immune system. In the study Sweden researchers tested this new method to train the immune system to stop attacking its own insulin producing cells.
Gholipour, Bahar. "Experimental Therapy May Slow Type 1 Diabetes." LiveScience. Purch, 15 Feb. 2017. Web. 15 Feb. 2017.
It may be possible to slow the progression of type 1 diabetes. In a new study, researchers in Sweden tested a new method to train the immune system to stop attacking the body's own insulin-producing cells. There were only 6 participants i the experiments, but scientists are calling these results exciting. In people with type 1 diabetes, the immune system recognizes beta cells as foreign invaders and destroys them. In the new study, the researches injected a protein found in the beta cells directly into the patient's lymph nodes. http://www.livescience.com/57903-diabetes-immune-therapy.html
Injecting live malaria parasites into people safely immunizes them from the disease.
A team of scientists from Sanaria, a biotech company that makes various malaria vaccines in Rockville, Maryland injected nine people with live "Plasmodium sporozoites" in a small human trial. The volunteers got three injections at 4-week intervals.
According to Marcel Tanner, who heads the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute in Basel - CVac could work well for travelers or military troops temporarily visiting malarial areas—and maybe on an island or in other well-defined areas where you can “vaccinate and treat like a military action.”
It may be possible to slow the beginning of type 1 diabetes, according to a new pilot study that used an experimental therapy that revolves around the immune system. Researchers in Sweden tested a new method to train the immune system to stop attacking the body's own insulin producing cells. The testing was only done on six patients but they claimed the results to be "exciting." By the time someone is diagnosed, most of their beta cells have already deteriorated with a few remaining. The objective of this study is to try and rescue those remaining cells to keep producing insulin. To do this, researchers injected a protein normally found on beta cells directly into the patients' lymph nodes. This method has shown the most progress so far. http://www.livescience.com/57903-diabetes-immune-therapy.html
a team of engineers has developed a camera that could provide eagle-eye vision to micro-drones. The new camera could be used for medical procedures, such as endoscopies, or to build micro-robots specially designed to measure, explore or survey. the engineers used a technique called femtosecond laser writing to 3D-print miniature lenses directly onto an image-sensing chip. The four lenses can be scaled down to a footprint as small as 300 micrometers by 300 micrometers.

Scientific advantages of a dually pick to a non dually pick up. When just for your information a dually pickup is a truck that has two extra wheels in the back with the regular set of wheels. With a dually you can haul more weight. You can haul double with weight with the two extra tires that you have which means big loads and more money you can make. On heavy duty semis there are even more tires. Theres usually 10 tires on just the semi. Its a scientific advantage because you can haul more but a disadvantage is that they cost more that a regular tire, but also your motor and transmission have to have the power to move the tires.

Hotline is a dating app that doesn't let you just swipe through names. You can only match with three people at a time, unlike Tinder and other dating apps. You cannot text the person, until you've had a phone call. Our world nowadays doesn't make us talk over the phone or in person, it is all texts. Sam Ballantyne, Hotline founder, says he started this app to bring people who talk online closer together. Last year in April he met a girl online who would not talk to him until he called her. This shows that the person really cares for you, and wants to get to know you. http://money.cnn.com/2017/02/13/technology/hotline-dating-app/index.html

Stray black hole turned cosmic gas cloud into speeding 'bullet'. A stray black hole may be responsible for turning a gas cloud into a speeding cosmic bullet trillions of miles long.The wandering black hole was discovered lurking just outside a supernova remnant, a shell of expelled material left behind after a massive star explodes. Using the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) in Chile and the 45-meter Radio Telescope at Nobeyama Radio Observatory, astronomers found that the black hole had been previously hidden by a compact gas cloud emerging from the remnant

Scientists say they have identified an underwater continent that they are calling Zealandia. It is about two-thirds the size of Australia. The new continent is 94% underwater with the only surfaces protruding about water are New Zealand and New Caledonia. The scientists do not believe this represents a new piece of land, but instead more than just the two islands and therefore should be considered continent.
There is an experimental therapy that could slow down the affects of type one diabetes. Researchers injected proteins found on beta cells, directly into the patients lymph nodes. It at slow levels helps the patients make insulin. Though not making enough to completely stabilize the blood sugar level. It makes enough to help the patients blood sugar levels to be more stable . It has only been tried on a small amount of people but the results were "exciting", but a Larger group will be the key to perfect the therapy.

The findings greatly increase the number of known genetic markers linked with baldness in men; a previous large study identified just eight such markers. The researchers also used this information to predict a man's chances of hair loss. Their research predictions apply more to an entire population of men than just one man in particular.
ReplyDelete"We are still a long way from making an accurate prediction for an individual's hair-loss pattern. However, these results take us one step closer," study co-author Riccardo Marioni, of the University of Edinburgh's Centre for Genomic and Experimental Medicine, said in a statement. "The findings pave the way for an improved understanding of the genetic causes of hair loss," Marioni said.

Researcher Kate Thomas found out that the cock eyed squid, which is also known as the "strawberry" squid, has mismatched eyes to survive in the "twilight zone." While the larger eye is busy looking upwards looking for shadows, the little one is busy looking downward looking for light.

A research ship is being sent down into the depths of the Pacific Ocean this week. It’s being sent down to see exotic sea animals like a sea toad, which apparently is a “walking fish”. It will go down 3.7 miles beneath the sea’s surface. It will go down tomorrow. The expedition was run through September.

Researchers at Harvard have developed a battery that can run for more than a decade. The battery only loses about one percent of its capacity after 1,000 charges. It is considered a "flow" battery, meaning its energy is kept in external tanks. Ferrocene is the top compound in the battery. Ferrocene was accidentally discovered in 1951 and hasn't had much use until now.
ReplyDeleteScientists find 60 new worlds orbiting stars near our solar system. They also have evidence of another 54 which would be in total 114 new discovered planets. One planet is described as a "hot super earth with a rocky surface. They named this planet Gliese 411. They have been looking the past 20 years and have discovered 1,600 stars and had 61,000 observations.

There has been recent research that shows magnetically controlled microscopic robots might one day help fight cancer inside the body. Scientists have shown that they can manipulate magnetic forces to help medical devices move through the body. Magnetic fields could also be used to control swarms of tiny magnets. These objects could all work together to possibly help with large problems like cancer. Scientists have developed a way to magnetically control each magnetic device to perform their own specific task.

ReplyDeleteDuring the summer in Dubai, drones could be flying people all over. The drone is an egg-shaped quadcopter, that can carry one person, along with one suitcase. The passenger must weigh under 220 pounds though. Once the passenger buckles up and chooses a destination, the drone will take off into the sky. A control room will monitor the drones remotely with mobile internet. It will have a battery that lasts for up to 30 minutes of flight and a distance up to about 30 miles. The drone is able to reach up to 100 mph, but the average speed will be 60 mph. "This is not only a model," Al Tayer told the AP. "We have actually experimented with this vehicle flying in Dubai's skies."

It might be possible to slow the progression of type 1 diabetes. According to a new pilot study. It uses an experimental therapy that focuses on the immune system. In the study Sweden researchers tested this new method to train the immune system to stop attacking its own insulin producing cells.

It may be possible to slow the progression of type 1 diabetes. In a new study, researchers in Sweden tested a new method to train the immune system to stop attacking the body's own insulin-producing cells. There were only 6 participants i the experiments, but scientists are calling these results exciting. In people with type 1 diabetes, the immune system recognizes beta cells as foreign invaders and destroys them. In the new study, the researches injected a protein found in the beta cells directly into the patient's lymph nodes.

Injecting live malaria parasites into people safely immunizes them from the disease.
ReplyDeleteA team of scientists from Sanaria, a biotech company that makes various malaria vaccines in Rockville, Maryland injected nine people with live "Plasmodium sporozoites" in a small human trial. The volunteers got three injections at 4-week intervals.
According to Marcel Tanner, who heads the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute in Basel - CVac could work well for travelers or military troops temporarily visiting malarial areas—and maybe on an island or in other well-defined areas where you can “vaccinate and treat like a military action.”

It may be possible to slow the beginning of type 1 diabetes, according to a new pilot study that used an experimental therapy that revolves around the immune system. Researchers in Sweden tested a new method to train the immune system to stop attacking the body's own insulin producing cells. The testing was only done on six patients but they claimed the results to be "exciting." By the time someone is diagnosed, most of their beta cells have already deteriorated with a few remaining. The objective of this study is to try and rescue those remaining cells to keep producing insulin. To do this, researchers injected a protein normally found on beta cells directly into the patients' lymph nodes. This method has shown the most progress so far.

a team of engineers has developed a camera that could provide eagle-eye vision to micro-drones. The new camera could be used for medical procedures, such as endoscopies, or to build micro-robots specially designed to measure, explore or survey. the engineers used a technique called femtosecond laser writing to 3D-print miniature lenses directly onto an image-sensing chip. The four lenses can be scaled down to a footprint as small as 300 micrometers by 300 micrometers.

Scientific advantages of a dually pick to a non dually pick up. When just for your information a dually pickup is a truck that has two extra wheels in the back with the regular set of wheels. With a dually you can haul more weight. You can haul double with weight with the two extra tires that you have which means big loads and more money you can make. On heavy duty semis there are even more tires. Theres usually 10 tires on just the semi. Its a scientific advantage because you can haul more but a disadvantage is that they cost more that a regular tire, but also your motor and transmission have to have the power to move the tires.

Meet mogees pro, small device that can turn anything into a musical interment, from air to watermelons. It is about as big as a nectarine this devise works by vibrations in what it’s stuck to. When these objects are touched in different ways it comes out as a sound, it also can interpret these things into visual effects on your tablet or phone screen. The inventor says he is looking forward to using this technology for things like education or even for a simple dimmer switch that you wave your hand in front.

Hotline is a dating app that doesn't let you just swipe through names. You can only match with three people at a time, unlike Tinder and other dating apps. You cannot text the person, until you've had a phone call. Our world nowadays doesn't make us talk over the phone or in person, it is all texts. Sam Ballantyne, Hotline founder, says he started this app to bring people who talk online closer together. Last year in April he met a girl online who would not talk to him until he called her. This shows that the person really cares for you, and wants to get to know you.

Scientist and doctors say it might be possible to slow the progression of type 1 diabetes. According to a new study. The new study is an experimental therapy that focuses on the immune system. Sweden researchers tested this new method to train the immune system to stop attacking its own insulin producing cells. The goal is to identify the root cause of type i diabetes and intercept its progression to disease before symptoms arise. Work in recent years suggests there is a window of opportunity to stop or delay the disease before the onset of clinical symptoms of the disease

Stray black hole turned cosmic gas cloud into speeding 'bullet'.
ReplyDeleteA stray black hole may be responsible for turning a gas cloud into a speeding cosmic bullet trillions of miles long.The wandering black hole was discovered lurking just outside a supernova remnant, a shell of expelled material left behind after a massive star explodes. Using the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) in Chile and the 45-meter Radio Telescope at Nobeyama Radio Observatory, astronomers found that the black hole had been previously hidden by a compact gas cloud emerging from the remnant

ReplyDeleteScientists say they have identified an underwater continent that they are calling Zealandia. It is about two-thirds the size of Australia. The new continent is 94% underwater with the only surfaces protruding about water are New Zealand and New Caledonia. The scientists do not believe this represents a new piece of land, but instead more than just the two islands and therefore should be considered continent.

ReplyDeleteThere is an experimental therapy that could slow down the affects of type one diabetes. Researchers injected proteins found on beta cells, directly into the patients lymph nodes. It at slow levels helps the patients make insulin. Though not making enough to completely stabilize the blood sugar level. It makes enough to help the patients blood sugar levels to be more stable . It has only been tried on a small amount of people but the results were "exciting", but a Larger group will be the key to perfect the therapy.
