5-limbed brittle stars move bilaterally, like people
2012-05-11
PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — It appears that the brittle star, the humble, five-limbed dragnet of the seabed, moves very similarly to us.
In a series of first-time experiments, Brown University evolutionary biologist Henry Astley discovered that brittle stars, despite having no brain, move in a very coordinated fashion, choosing a central arm to chart direction and then designating other limbs to propel it along. Yet when the brittle star wants to change direction, it designates a new front, meaning that it chooses a new center arm and two other limbs to move. ...

Evolution's gift may also be at the root of a form of autism
2012-05-11
A recently evolved pattern of gene activity in the language and decision-making centers of the human brain is missing in a disorder associated with autism and learning disabilities, a new study by Yale University researchers shows.
"This is the cost of being human," said Nenad Sestan, associate professor of neurobiology, researcher at Yale's Kavli Institute for Neuroscience, and senior author of the paper. "The same evolutionary mechanisms that may have gifted our species with amazing cognitive abilities have also made us more susceptible to psychiatric disorders such ...
RNA regulator of melanoma could be a new target for cancer therapy
2012-05-11
May 11, 2012 – Melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer, estimated by the National Cancer Institute to afflict more than 70,000 people in the United States annually and the incidence rate continues to rise. In a study published online in Genome Research (www.genome.org), researchers have identified a previously unknown non-coding RNA that plays an important role in the biology of melanoma, a finding that could lead to a new target for therapy.
Most skin cancers are nonmelanomas, arising from cells other than melanocytes (the melanin-producing cells that are responsible ...
Citizens Property Insurance Corporation Prepares for Trial Against Corless Associates and the Wells Law Group
2012-05-11
On June 11, 2012, Citizens is set to try the case of Gulf View Village Condo Association v. Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, pending in Pasco County, Florida. The case relates to a 2009 claim for damages due to settlement at a property occupied primarily by retirees and their families.
This case illustrates the lengths Citizens believes it can go to delay and stall paying on its legal obligations. Although Citizens was told as early as November 2009 that there was sinkhole activity at the property in one building and as early as August 2010 in its other 4, Citizens ...
Hubble observes a dwarf galaxy with a bright nebula
2012-05-11
The starry mist streaking across this image obtained by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope is the central part of the dwarf galaxy known as NGC 2366. The most obvious feature in this galaxy is a large nebula visible in the upper-right part of the image, an object listed just a few entries prior in the New General Catalogue as NGC 2363.
A nearby yellowish swirl is not in fact part of the nebula. It is a spiral galaxy much further away, whose light is shining right through NGC 2366. This is possible because galaxies are not solid objects. While we see the stars because ...
Study Shows the Benefits of Speed Limiters for Commercial Drivers
2012-05-11
Six years ago, the American Trucking Associations (ATA) advised the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that using speed limiters --electronic devices that limit the top speed of commercial vehicles -- would help prevent commercial trucking accidents and make roads safer for motorists.
Now, according to ATA CEO Bill Graves, a recent study published by the FMCSA proves that these devices are an answer to saving lives of many commercial truck drivers. "This study confirms what ATA has been ...
Speed Limits Matter When Trying to Prevent Serious Accidents
2012-05-11
National measures to curb speeding on local roads and interstate highways have proved to be largely ineffective. In fact, the federal government repealed the national speed limit in 1995, prompting some states to raise their limit as high as 85 mph. Despite all the technology to increase automobile safety and measures to make roads safer, speeding contributes to around one third of the 10,000 traffic fatalities each year, according to AutoGuide.com. A 1998 study estimated the annual economic cost associated with deaths, injuries and damage from speeding was $27.7 billion.

African Americans have more severe complications from systemic sclerosis, also known as scleroderma, than Caucasians. Findings published today in, Arthritis & Rheumatism, a journal of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR), show that compared with Caucasians, African-American patients were more likely to have antibodies that increased frequency and severity of pulmonary fibrosis, which is associated with decreased survival.
According to the ACR there are 49,000 adult American diagnosed with systemic sclerosis—an autoimmune disease where collagen build-ups in the ...
