Training can improve memory and increase brain activity in mild cognitive impairment

2012-03-05

If someone has trouble remembering where the car keys or the cheese grater are, new research shows that a memory training strategy can help. Memory training can even re-engage the hippocampus, part of the brain critical for memory formation, the results suggest. Researchers at Emory University School of Medicine and Atlanta Veterans Affairs Medical Center have been investigating memory-building strategies for people with MCI (mild cognitive impairment). The techniques used in the study were known to be effective for healthy people, but it has been uncertain how they could ...

Tortoise and the hare: New drug stops rushing cancer cells, slow and steady healthy cells unharmed

2012-03-05

The American Cancer Society estimates that 44,000 new cases of pancreatic cancer will be diagnosed this year and that 37,000 people will die from the disease. These are not strong odds. A new drug, rigosertib, allows pancreatic cancer cells to rush through replication – and then stops them cold, killing them in in the middle of a step called M phase. Healthy cells that don't rush are unharmed. Data from a phase I clinical trial of patients with advanced pancreatic cancer and additional solid tumors recently published in the journal Clinical Cancer Research shows the strategy ...

2012-03-05

The fundamentals of financial planning are the same for men and women, so why do women need custom-tailored financial advice?

The seminar is scheduled for Tuesday, March 20, at Riddell Financial in the SunTrust Bank building, 3400 ...

Solved: The mystery of the nanoscale crop circles

2012-03-05

Almost three years ago a team of scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) was performing an experiment in which layers of gold mere nanometers (billionths of a meter) thick were being heated on a flat silicon surface and then allowed to cool. They watched in surprise as peculiar features expanded and changed on the screen of their electron microscope, finally settling into circles surrounded by irregular blisters. The circles varied in diameter up to a few millionths of a meter, and in the center of each was a ...

Effects of environmental toxicants reach down through generations

2012-03-05

PULLMAN, Wash.—A Washington State University researcher has demonstrated that a variety of environmental toxicants can have negative effects on not just an exposed animal but the next three generations of its offspring. The animal's DNA sequence remains unchanged, but the compounds change the way genes turn on and off—the epigenetic effect studied at length by WSU molecular biologist Michael Skinner and expanded on in the current issue of the online journal PLoS ONE. While Skinner's earlier research has shown similar effects from a pesticide and fungicide, this is the ...
