In the pursuit of dangerous clumps
2011-08-01
When normal proteins form protein clumps in the body, then alarm bells start ringing. Such clumps, called "amyloids," are closely associated with Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes, formerly called adult-onset diabetes. If doctors knew how these proteins form clumps, then they might be able to treat such diseases more efficiently. The physicist Adrian Keller and his colleagues at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf and the university in Aarhus, Denmark, have succeeded in taking a major step in that direction.
The cell surface assumes a major role in this ...

The benefits of slower heart rate on mortality and morbidity associated with cardiovascular disease no longer need to be demonstrated. In this study, titled "Heart Rate Reduction by Ivabradine Reduces Diastolic Dysfunction and Cardiac Fibrosis," researchers sought ...
Prisoners need greater awareness of voluntary services, says research
2011-08-01
New research from the Third Sector Research Centre (TSRC) highlights the need to make prisoners more aware of voluntary organisations that could help them towards resettlement.

TSRC researchers from the University of Southampton conducted a survey across eight prisons nationally to investigate prisoners' experiences of third sector organisations (TSOs). The number of TSOs that each prison claimed was active in their establishment ...
