Meteorites could have brought all 5 genetic ‘letters’ of DNA to early Earth

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics

These key building blocks of life were found in space rocks, scientists confirm.


Key building blocks of DNA that previous research mysteriously failed to discover in meteorites have now been discovered in space rocks, suggesting that cosmic impacts might once have helped deliver these vital ingredients of life to ancient Earth.

DNA is made of four main building blocks — nucleobases called adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine © and guanine (G). DNA’s sister molecule, RNA, also uses A, C and G, but swaps out thymine for uracil (U). Scientists wondering whether meteorites might have helped deliver these compounds to Earth have previously looked for nucleobases in space rocks, but until now, scientists had only detected A and G in space rocks, and not T, C or U.

Fertility crisis: Is modern life making men infertile? — BBC REEL

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, chemistry

We all know man-made chemicals are damaging ecosystems across the planet. But could certain chemicals also be negatively affecting human fertility?

Dr Shanna Swan, an environmental and reproductive epidemiologist at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York and the author of Count Down, predicts that current trends could not continue much longer without threatening human survival.

Ancient Genes for Symbiosis Hint at Mitochondria’s Origins

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

Was the addition of mitochondria a first step in the formation of complex cells or one of the last? A new study of bacteria tries to answer this contentious question in evolutionary biology.

Promising Stem Cell Therapy Could Help Spinal Cord Injury Sufferers Regain Ability to Walk

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, innovation

At the Max Rady College of Medicine, University of Manitoba, in Canada, researchers have developed a stem-cell-based therapy that is regenerating spinal cords in laboratory animals and may become available for human clinical trials.


Blocking inhibitory molecules that cause neuronal cells to degenerate, and inhibit stem cell transplants may prove a breakthrough therapy.

Whole-Brain Preclinical Study Illuminates How Epileptic Seizures Originate

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience

Summary: Seizures originate from an excess of excitatory over inhibitory neural activity in confined regions of the brain, and spread only when they overcome strong inhibitory activity in surrounding regions.

Source: Weill Cornell University.

New evidence from a zebrafish model of epilepsy may help resolve a debate into how seizures originate, according to Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian investigators. The findings may also be useful in the discovery and development of future epilepsy drugs.

Scientists discover how salt in tumors could help diagnose and treat breast cancer

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

Analyzing sodium levels in breast cancer tumors can give an accurate indication of how aggressive a cancer is and whether chemotherapy treatments are taking effect, new research has shown.

In a study, by the universities of York and Cambridge and funded by charities Cancer Research UK and Breast Cancer Now, researchers developed a technique using sodium imaging (MRI) to detect salt levels in in mice.

Using this technique, the researchers looked at tumors and discovered that salt (sodium) was being accumulated inside and that more active tumors accumulate more sodium.
