Twists of Fate: How 50,000 Mysterious DNA Knots Could Help Cure Diseases Like Cancer

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, innovation

An innovative study of DNA ’s hidden structures may open up new approaches for the treatment and diagnosis of diseases, including cancer.

Researchers at the Garvan Institute have unveiled the first comprehensive map of over 50,000 i-motifs in the human genome, structures distinct from the classic double helix that may play crucial roles in gene regulation and disease. These findings highlight the potential of i-motifs in developing new therapies, particularly in targeting genes associated with cancers.

The West Coast Is at Risk: New Megathrust Fault Research Indicates That the Next Big Earthquake Could Be Imminent

Posted by in category: futurism

Large-scale earthquakes and tsunamis have historically affected the western regions of the U.S. and Canada and are likely to do so in the future.

Off the southern coasts of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and northern California, a 600-mile-long strip exists where the Pacific Ocean floor gradually subducts eastward beneath North America.

This area, called the Cascadia Subduction Zone, hosts a megathrust fault, a place where tectonic plates move against each other in a highly dangerous way. The plates can periodically lock up and build stress over wide areas―eventually to be released when they finally lurch against each other.

Medicinering vid adhd kopplat till minskad risk att dö

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

Researchers from Karolinska Institutet have shown that there is a connection between medication against ADHD and a reduced risk of dying prematurely.


Forskare från Karolinska Institutet har visat att det finns ett samband mellan medicinering mot adhd och minskad risk för att dö i förtid. Risken för dödsfall av onaturliga orsaker, som olyckor och överdoseringar, kan minska med en fjärdedel, enligt den nya studien publicerad i JAMA.
