CiCi's Pizza Announces $4.99 Endless Value Dinner Campaign
2011-03-11
A new national report from leading market research firm Mintel reveals 24 percent of restaurant-goers plan to spend less at restaurants in 2011 than they did in 2010, confirming Technomic projections of everyday value as a top 2011 restaurant trend. CiCi's Pizza, a pioneer in everyday value and endless variety with its $4.99 pizza buffet, launches its Endless Value Dinner campaign to remind consumers they can have a quality, sit-down restaurant meal of pizza, pasta, salad and dessert for less than $5.
"These studies show how important it is for restaurants to provide ...
Vascular brain disorder misdiagnosed as multiple sclerosis
2011-03-10
MAYWOOD, Ill. -- A devastating vascular disorder of the brain called CADASIL, which strikes young adults and leads to early dementia, often is misdiagnosed as multiple sclerosis, Loyola University Health System researchers report.
CADASIL occurs when thickening of blood vessel walls blocks blood flow in the brain. The early manifestation is migraine headaches, progressing to strokes and mini strokes, depression, apathy, motor disability and executive dysfunction (inability to plan and organize everyday activities.) The final symptom is dementia.
CADASIL is caused by ...
NASA infrared satellite data sees system 96P developing tropically near Vanuatu
2011-03-10
The low pressure area called System 96P in the South Pacific appears to be getting organized in infrared satellite imagery from NASA. System 96P is showing signs of strong convection and that has prompted the government of Vanuatu to issue tropical cyclone warnings today.
Vanuatu is an island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. A tropical cyclone warning is in effect today for the Sanma, Penama, Malampa and Shefa Provinces of Vanuatu. Strong winds and heavy surf are expected in the next 12 to 24 hours in the warning areas. Local updates are available on the Vanuatu ...
PBS-Bio uncovers how Unibioscreen drug kills cancer
2011-03-10
MESA, Ariz. — March 8, 2011 — Predictive Biomarker Sciences (PBS-Bio) has uncovered how the experimental drug UNBS1450, produced by Unibioscreen, kills cancer cells.
Previous studies have shown that over-activity of a gene known as MCL1 can cause cancer cells to grow out of control. PBS-Bio, which is owned in part by the non-profit, Phoenix-based Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen), co-discovered that UNBS1450 effectively shuts off the gene and induces apoptosis, the cancer cell's normal process of cellular death.
"It's a very nice candidate drug," said ...
New mouse models generated for MYH9 genetic disorders
2011-03-10
WASHINGTON, D.C. (March 9, 2011) -- Researchers have created the first mouse models of human MYH9 genetic disorders, which cause several problems -- including enlarged platelets and sometimes fatal kidney disease.
The MYH9 gene makes non-muscle myosin II-A protein. This protein plays a critical role in helping cells move to their correct home during embryonic development. Later in life, the protein continues its involvement in cell migration, cell-cell adhesion and also in maintaining cell shape, says Yingfan Zhang, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow at the National Heart, ...
Researchers in France and Austria find novel role for calcium channels in pacemaker cell function
2011-03-10
WASHINGTON, D.C. (March 9, 2011) -- Pacemaker cells in the sinoatrial node control heart rate, but what controls the ticking of these pacemaker cells? New research by Angelo Torrente and his colleagues of the M.E. Mangoni group's, reveals, for the first time, a critical functional interaction between Cav1.3 calcium ion (Ca2+) channels and ryanodine-receptor (RyR) mediated Ca2+ signaling.
The study also sheds light on a long-standing debate regarding the relative contributions of the 'funny current' generated by ion channels and the RyR dependent spontaneous diastolic ...
New genetic deafness syndrome identified
2011-03-10
WASHINGTON, D.C. (March 9, 2011) -- Ten years ago, scientists seeking to understand how a certain type of feature on a cell called an L-type calcium channel worked created a knockout mouse missing both copies of the CACNA1D gene.
The CACNA1D gene makes a protein that lets calcium flow into a cell, transmitting important instructions from other cells. The knockout mice lived a normal life span, but their hearts beat slowly and arrhythmically. They were also completely deaf.
Today at the 55th Annual Biophysical Society Meeting in Baltimore, an international team lead ...
Newly identified spider toxin may help uncover novel ways of treating pain and human diseases
2011-03-10
WASHINGTON, D.C. (March 9, 2011) -- Spider venom toxins are useful tools for exploring how ion channels operate in the body. These channels control the flow of ions across cell membranes, and are key components in a wide variety of biological processes and human diseases.
A newly identified toxin from the American Funnel Web spider acts on T-type and N-type calcium channels, researchers from the University of California at Riverside have discovered. The toxin offers a new target for studying T-type channels, which play a role in congestive heart failure, hypertension, ...
Gene fusion mechanisms offer new clues to origin of pediatric brain tumors
2011-03-10
March 10, 2011 – A detailed analysis of gene fusions present at high frequency in the most common pediatric brain tumors has been performed for the first time in a study published online today in Genome Research (www.genome.org), shedding new light on how these genomic rearrangements form in the early stages of cancer.
Genomic rearrangements, genetic changes that alter the structure of chromosomes, have a positive role in evolution by creating genetic diversity and new genes; however, rearrangements can also predispose to or potentially initiate diseases such as cancer. ...
