TEL AVIV, ISRAEL, April 04, 2012 (Press-News.org) April in Israel is a month with many special events including: festivals, concerts, performances, street fairs and walking tours which are tremendously varied so that there is something for every one of all ages and tastes. April's warm temperatures mean that more outdoor events can take place, and combined with the Passover holiday for which kids are away from school, it means that April is a great time to be in Israel. Additionally, as the local holiday coincides with the Easter holiday, many Christian tourists choose to visit Israel in April, as the majority of them have school and work vacations at this time, as well.
As a result, reservations from foreign visitors coming to Israel for the Passover and Easter season increased sharply, as Israel is a popular destination for the holiday season. Local customers living in cities who don't own cars have also made reservations to tour other parts of the country, and as rental car sales are so popular, Avis Israel is advising customers interested in renting cars to reserve early, to ensure that the car class of their choice will be available. All of Avis Israel's 28 branches, from Nahariya in the North to Eilat in the South, have experienced rental increases both from local residents visiting friends and family in other regions of the country, as well as tourists from abroad visiting Israel for the Passover and Easter holiday season.

Significant improvement in neonatal care in England over 10 years
2012-04-04
Neonatal services in England have seen a considerable improvement since the introduction of new guidelines in 2003, a study published on bmj.com claims.
The new guidelines were set out to help increase the proportion of premature babies born in a specialist care unit and reduce the amount of acute (within 24 hours of birth) postnatal transfers from one hospital to another. The specialised delivery and management of premature babies is associated with improved outcomes while acute postnatal transfer is associated with adverse outcomes.

New biomarker to identify hepatitis B-infected patients at risk for liver cancer
2012-04-04
CHICAGO— Hepatitis B-infected patients with significantly longer telomeres—the caps on the end of chromosomes that protect our genetic data— were found to have an increased risk of getting liver cancer compared to those with shorter ones, according to findings presented by researchers at Jefferson's Kimmel Cancer Center at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2012.
The relative telomere length in hepatitis B-infected cases with liver cancer was about 50 percent longer than the telomere length of the cancer-free hepatitis B-infected controls.

Mayo Clinic: Nutritional supplement works against some pancreatic cancer cells in mice
2012-04-04
ROCHESTER, Minn. -- The dietary supplement gamma-linoleic acid can inhibit the growth of a
subset of pancreatic cancer cells and selectively promote cancer cell death in mice, a Mayo Clinic study has found. The supplement, a fatty acid also known as GLA, worked particularly well when combined with the chemotherapy drug gemcitabine, the researchers say. The findings were presented today by Mayo Clinic pathologist Ruth Lupu, Ph.D., at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2012. "One of the most devastating facts about pancreatic cancer is the ...

Mayo Clinic study identifies optimal gene targets for new colon cancer test
2012-04-04
ROCHESTER, Minn. -- A study presented today by Mayo Clinic researchers at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2012 in Chicago identified two genes that are optimal targets to be analyzed in a new noninvasive test for colorectal cancer developed by Mayo Clinic, in collaboration with Exact Sciences Corporation. The test uses a small sample of a patient's stool to check for specific DNA changes, known as gene methylation, that occur as cancer develops. The test can quickly detect both early stage cancer and precancerous polyps.

New drug prevents spread of human prostate cancer cells
2012-04-04
CHICAGO --- A new drug developed by Northwestern Medicine scientists prevented human prostate cancer cells from spreading to other tissues without any toxic effects to normal cells or tissues. The drug turns off the "go" switch in the cancer cells and immobilizes them.
Prostate cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death in North American males. Death is mainly caused by metastasis, prostate cancer cells moving out of prostate tissue and spreading to other organs.
"This is an extremely promising new therapeutic that locks down aggressive prostate cancer cells ...
Gladstone scientists find increased ApoE protein levels may promote Alzheimer's disease
2012-04-04
SAN FRANCISCO, CA—April 3, 2012—Scientists at the Gladstone Institutes have enhanced our understanding of how a protein linked to Alzheimer's disease keeps young brains healthy, but can damage them later in life—suggesting new research avenues for treating this devastating disease.
In the Journal of Neuroscience, available online today, researchers in the laboratory of Yadong Huang, MD, PhD, have uncovered the distinct roles that the apoE protein plays in young vs. aging brains. These findings, which could inform the future of Alzheimer's drug development, come at a time ...
Pollen can protect mahogany from extinction
2012-04-04
New research from the University of Adelaide could help protect one of the world's most globally threatened tree species - the big leaf mahogany - from extinction.
Big leaf mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) is the most prized mahogany timber around the world. It is at risk of extinction in its native habitats because of the timber trade, particularly in Central and South America.
To better understand how such a threatened species can be brought back from the brink of extinction, scientists from the University of Adelaide's Environment Institute have studied the important ...
